Lauren Sánchez Shares Valentine’s Day Post of Fiancé Jeff Bezos Working

Lauren Sánchez chose an untraditional photo to wish her fiancé Jeff Bezos a Happy Valentine’s Day.

Rather than posting a couples’ pic like many others, the journalist turned author, 55, uploaded a pic of the Amazon Founder, 61, alone at work in his office.

“Happy Valentine’s Day my love,” Sánchez wrote on the black and white photo.

Earlier on Friday, she posted a more traditional Valentine’s Day pic of heart-shaped candies in a cup that read “love me” and “let’s hang.”

The black and white photo was actually posted by Sánchez previously a few weeks after Bezos’ Jan. 12 birthday. The photo carousel showed Bezos at the same desk he had when he started his billion-dollar company. The throwback picture was before the money came rolling in.

“I just love that he is still working from one of the first desks that have been around since the beginning (see next slide),” Sánchez wrote at the time. “This is where countless hours of hard work meet the heart of Day one. Here’s to the endless pursuit of what’s possible. ❤️”

Her post comes a month after they celebrated the successful launch of Blue Origin’s New Glenn rocket. Sánchez reflected on the milestone in a sweet Instagram post, which included an image of the couple sharing an embrace.

“Thinking about these moments at the launch. From intense focus, to pure joy, to that incredible moment New Glenn lit up the sky,” she captioned the post. “CONGRATULATIONS to the entire Blue team .. what a first launch 🚀💙.”

The month prior, Bezos celebrated his fiancée’s birthday with a sweet tribute in honor of her turning 55. In the post, he celebrated her “incredible year,” which included finding success as a children’s book author with The Fly Who Flew to Space. 

“You set your mind to writing a children’s book and now you’re a NYT best selling author,” he wrote in a post to Instagram. “I have a feeling your next trip around the sun will be just as amazing. Happy birthday, baby!”

PEOPLE first confirmed that Bezos and Sánchez were dating in January 2019, and the couple got engaged in May 2023. The couple hasn’t shared many details publicly about their upcoming nuptials. Sanchez shared in a recent appearance on the Today show that she has been using Pinterest to figure out what she wants for the ceremony.

“I’m just like every other bride,” she said, adding that she’s thinking about the dress.

The couple is used to attending several glamorous galas and events, but when it comes to their home life, Sanchez has admitted to PEOPLE that she likes it simple. She said that she loves it the most when the pair are doing mundane things at home.

“My favorite time is when the house is calm and quiet and Jeff and I are deciding what show we’re going to binge that night,” she said while promoting her first children’s book, The Fly Who Flew to Space.
