‘Couldn’t He Hire Someone to Carry Her?’: Lauren Sánchez and Jeff Bezos’ Double Date with Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria Ceretti Takes an Awkward Turn as Fans Spot Both Women Struggling to Walk

Newlyweds Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez are still basking in their marital bliss away from America. The pair’s wedding ceremony took place in France in June. They have been spotted gallivanting to ritzy hot spots around the Mediterranean Sea ever since. 

The socialite, 55, caused a frenzy during a recent double-date outing when she and Bezos, 61, were joined by pals Leonardo DiCaprio, 50, and his girlfriend, Vittoria Ceretti, 27. The jet-setting quartet was spotted off the coast of Ibiza offboarding the Amazon founder’s yacht.

Sánchez wore a cream minidress paired with nude strapless heels, while Bezos wore a white polo with gray pants and white sneakers. “The Titanic” actor and model coordinated in all-black ensembles. Ceretti opted for a tank top and skirt combo with a strapless heel, while DiCaprio paired his look with white sneakers. 

At first glance, the ladies’ attire did not demand much attention; however, critics unleashed scathing reactions when they zoomed in on the women’s shoes. 

“Stripper heels on a rocky beach. Couldn’t he hire someone to carry her? He can afford it and I’m surprised she doesn’t expect it,” wrote one person when Daily Mail shared dozens of photos of the couples trekking up the rocky beach to their restaurant.

In several of the images, Sánchez and Ceretti appeared to be cautiously watching their steps, each holding on to their mates to thwart a tumble to the ground. 

A second person begged, “For heavens sake, take the shoes off while you walk over the sand. They all look ridiculous, and certainly not oozing glamour.” A third person wrote, “You just couldn’t wear a pair of sensible shoes, could you? You look awkward. All the money in the world.”

A fourth commenter implied that the former journalist chose style over sensibility to appease her husband. That person wrote, “Someone should remind Lauren she doesn’t need to try so hard now. She’s bagged her billionaire so no need to wear towering stilettos on rocky beaches any more.”

DiCaprio and his Italian girlfriend have been romantically linked to each other since 2023. The lovebirds not only attended Bezos and Sánchez’s wedding, but have also been snapped by paparazzi vacationing with the pair since early August.

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
