Silver belle! Lauren Sanchez, 53, shares VERY airbrushed engagement party photos as she cozies up with Kris Jenner, Bumble boss Whitney Wolfe Herd and fiancé Jeff Bezos
- The couple held the party aboard Bezos' $500m yacht just off the Amalfi Coast
- The secret celebration came two months after the couple got engaged in May
- Sanchez, 53, shared shots with Kris Jenner and Bumble's Whitney Wolfe Herd
Lauren Sanchez has shared a series of heavily-airbrushed photos from her star-studded engagement party with fiancé Jeff Bezos - including shots with Kris Jenner and Bumble boss Whitney Wolfe Herd.
The couple held the engagement party aboard Bezos' $500million mega-yacht -off Italy's Amalfi Coast - in a Wednesday ceremony that was also attended by bigwigs such as Bill Gates.
And Lauren proudly-shared snaps of her glitzy posse on her Instagram Friday - with everyone pictured displaying a peachy, youthful complexion that suggested the photos had been heavily-edited before publication.
The secret celebration came two months after the couple got engaged in May, on a boat believed to be the largest sailing vessel in the world - and which notably has a wooden sculpture that resembles Bezos' soon-to-be second wife on the prow.
Bezos and Sanchez recently returned from southern Europe to spend time on the boat - whose name means 'new beginnings' in Maori - and have been spotted engaging in pre-wedding PDA off the coast of Sardinia several times since.
On Wednesday - three days after Sanchez was seen wrapping her legs around her Amazon founder fiancé on the same vessel - the 53-year-old was photographed with several big names and her fiancé, and shared them to social media Friday as proof.

'Seeing double after the most magical evening,' Sanchez captioned the set of images, the first of which showed her showing off curves in front of a mirror.
'Forever grateful,' the second-generation Mexican-American from Albuquerque added.
Another shot - a tasteful black-and-white portrait on the deck of the boat, which is called the Koru - showed the couple sharing a moment as the stretch of scenic Italian coastline is seen behind them.
A third showed what appeared to be Sanchez's favorite female guests comprising her bridal party, which included the high-powered Kardashian matriarch, 67, and the 34-year-old founder of both Bumble and Tinder.
In April, Jenner took part in a double date with Sanchez and Bezos with beau Corey Gamble. Days ago, she responded to the photo of a bare-chested Bezos posted by Sanchez with a series of fire emojis.
Herd, who has a net worth of some $1.5billion, in 2019 called Sanchez's future hubby as an 'inspiration,' telling CNBC Make It she would often watch videos of Bezos speaking.
In one, 'he said something I will never forget' she told the outlet - referring to a 2001 comment he gave The New York Times that asserted, 'there is something about e-mail that turns off the politeness gene in people.'
Both were seen flanking a smiling Sanchez, who was dressed in white, while the three other members of the black-clad bridal party stood behind them.

The secret celebration came two months after the couple got engaged in May, on a boat believed to be the largest sailing vessel in the world - and which notably has a wooden sculpture that resembles Bezos' soon-to-be second wife on the prow.
Two of them, Veronica Smiley and Lydia Kives, are married to two high-powered media execs in LA, while the other, 34 year-old Sarah Staudinger, is an LA-based fashion designer who was once named to the Forbes 30 Under 30.
Smiley, 49, is the fourth wife of prominent producer Brian Grazer, whom she married in 2016 in a star-studded ceremony in Santa Monica. She notably dated Monty Python star John Cleese back in 2008, while he was in the process of divorcing his third wife.
Kives, meanwhile, is the wife of this LA mega agent Michael Kives, whom she married in another over-the-top procession in 2019 in Palm Springs.
All the women were dressed and black, and appeared to be enjoying some adult beverages as they posed for the group shot below deck on Bezos' yacht - where the couple have been seen spending plenty of quality time this summer.
A fourth and final shot showed Sanchez at what appeared to be later in the evening, out with her adult son, Nikko Gonzalez, 22, who she shares with NFL star Tony Gonzalez.
Gonzalez - who was joined by his girlfriend Ginebra in the flick - looked happy to be partying with his mom, with the three posing for a particularly glammed up shot at the part in Positano
The rest of the festivities, for the most part, remain somewhat shrouded, though photos show that figures like Gates, 67, and his girlfriend Paula Hurd.

Also spotted was Rupert Murdoch's ex-wife, American entrepreneur Wendi Murdoch, and film and television producer Fabiola Beracasa Beckman.
Also present was Endeavor power agent Ari Emanuel, the wife of fashion designer Staudinger, as well as Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield, and Jenner's husband Corey Gamble.
All celebrated Bezos and Sánchez's impending nuptials into the night, after the engaged couple - who took their relationship public in January 2019 after Bezos announced his divorce from MacKenzie Scott - were pictured several times recently on the megayacht, which was custom built for Bezos in 2021.
On July 28, the couple were seen soaking up the sun in their swimsuits before they were joined on the yacht by their A-list guests.
Sanchez was seen walking on the desk of the superyacht in a skimpy black string bikini, which she paired with a billowy black and white coverup.
She was barefoot and her long raven hair was pulled up in a messy bun. She topped off her look with a pair of dark shades and large diamond stud earrings - days after dinging with A-listers Gayle King and Oprah Winfrey on the same yacht.
Bezos also showed off his muscular figure in a pair of turquoise swim trunks, the only thing he had on besides his aviator sunglasses.
After soaking up some sunshine on their latest adventure, Bezos and Sanchez returned to the deck of the boat in order to 'personally prepare the table for lunch,' an onlooker revealed.
'They made sure that everything on the table was spot on before going to get changed,' they added.
Winfrey is also part of the elite billionaire's club with an estimated net worth of $2.5 billion.

She and King, who have been enjoying their own girls' getaway in Europe this week, spent around 90 minutes on board Bezos's yacht, enjoying a meal alongside the Amazon founder and his other companions.
The two women are thought to be staying on the $400 million Rising Sun — a yacht owned by billionaire businessman David Geffen — from which they were seen being ferried to dinner earlier this week.
Bezos and Sanchez's lunch with Winfrey and King comes just four days after Sanchez proudly shared a snapshot of her shirtless beau stepping onto the superyacht's ladder after a dip in the sea.
'Is it just me, or is it hot outside?' she cheekily captioned the image on Instagram.
Sanchez's saucy post earned thousands of likes and hundreds of comments in just a few hours, including messages from their celebrity friends.
Kris Jenner responded with a series of fire emojis, while celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe added, 'I [love] u.'
A number of fans also credited Sanchez for the billionaire's ripped physique, with television host Liberty Madison writing, 'You changed his life!'
'Love it. You're keeping him young and fit,' chef Penny Davidi agreed.
Meanwhile, in 2017, Bezos shocked the world when he showed off his newly toned muscles after transforming himself from a scrawny bookstore boss to a buff billionaire.
His newfound devotion to fitness was believed to have been sparked by Amazon's acquisition of Whole Foods for nearly $14 billion.
Bezos is reported to have worked with celebrity trainer Wes Okerson, who was credited with preparing actor Tom Cruise for his 2008 thriller Valkyrie.
Sanchez also prioritizes physical fitness and will share videos of herself working out from time to time.
She showed off her figure in a skimpy hot pink bikini over the weekend while posing with her younger sister, Sanchez Blair, who celebrated her 41st birthday on the Koru Sunday.
Sanchez reposted the snapshot of them on the ship's deck on her Instagram Stories, writing, 'Happy birthday beauty.'
In a January interview with the Wall Street Journal, a candid Sanchez - an Emmy-Award winning journalist previously married Patrick Whitesell, - paid tribute to Bezos' not-so-world-renowned sense of humor.
'He makes me laugh all the time. He can be goofy. He's so happy, he inspires me every day, he makes me a better person every day; he's the most loving human I know.'
