Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez made their first public appearance since making their engagement official on Monday night.
The couple appeared at the Cannes Film Festival and were seen arriving at the Cap du Cap-Eden-Roc hotel.
Sanchez, 53, was seen wearing a sparkling white dress with her hefty new diamond engagement ring – believed to be around 20 carats.
Bezos looked trim in a light blue linen shirt and cream slacks as the pair strolled dockside near their yacht.
Beginning their life together, the happy couple shared news of their engagement with Vanity Fair partygoers after Bezos, 59, popped the question while sailing on his new $500 million superyacht, Coru, sources told Newstimesuk.com.
Those who attended the event say the couple seemed affectionate and full of love for each other.
The couple later had dinner at La Petite Maison restaurant in Cannes and could be seen heading back to Bezos’ yacht together with his sister Christine and her husband Steve Poore.
The couple will soon plan their wedding which is likely to be a lavish affair with a star-studded guest list.

Bezos and Sanchez were spotted kissing and canoodling on the ‘Koru’ board over the weekend as Sanchez, 53, struggled to hide the Balearic island-sized rock glistening on her ring finger – clear evidence she said, ‘I do.’
During Monday night’s party, the pair looked very much in love.
‘They were on top of each other. I mean, they’re always affectionate, but they can’t keep their hands off each other,’ an onlooker told the New York Post.
“They told everyone they were engaged, they were so excited, they were totally in love,” said another.
The couple were spotted kissing and canoodling on board a yacht over the weekend as Sanchez, 53, struggled to hide the Balearic island-sized rock flashing on her ring finger.
The newly engaged couple were pictured off the coast of Cannes, enjoying a Mediterranean odyssey and the maiden voyage of Bezos’ half-billion dollar ship.
At 417-feet tall and 230-feet long, ‘Koru’ is one of the world’s largest sailing yachts, a 250-feet support vessel that boasts its own helipad.
The pair flew to Europe on a private jet and were spotted for the first time on the deck of the superyacht last weekend.
Never one to be understated, the man who built his own space rocket dropped a subtle hint that the voyage would be with Sanchez, as Bezos hired a curvaceous figurehead to maneuver the boat.
The couple looked happy and relaxed together as the Emmy-award-winning journalist snapped a few quick photos on her phone.

It’s unclear when the gilded, polished wood sculpture became part of the ship’s design, but the yacht was launched in 2018, a year before Bezos and Sanchez’s affair scandal was uncovered that ended both their marriages.
On the day news of their relationship broke, Bezos and his then-wife, Mackenzie Tuttle, 53, released an announcement on Twitter that they were separating and that the separation was ‘courtesy’ after 25 years of marriage.
At the same time, Sanchez revealed the truth about her relationship with her then-husband Patrick Whitesell, 58, Bezos.
Bezos was introduced to Sanchez, the longtime anchor of Fox’s ‘Good Morning LA’, in 2016 by his friend, her husband, Whitesell, co-CEO of Hollywood talent agency WME.
The couple, Bezos and McKenzie, often socialized with Sanchez and Whitesell, considering the unlikely husband and wife friends.

Tuttle, the novelist, walked away with a $35.6 billion settlement, most of which he pledged to charity. She went on to marry Seattle science teacher Dan Jewett, though the marriage ended in September 2022.
While Bezos and Sanchez may have had a stormy start to their relationship, it seems to be smooth sailing today.

Photographs taken of Bezos and Sanchez as they enjoyed the sun, surf and life of luxury on the high seas showed them kissing and touching each other affectionately as they boarded their private love boats.
Dressed casually in Bezos’ swim shorts and Sanchez’s trim bikini or a casual vest top and pants, the couple showed their intention to keep their vacation as ‘low key’ as a multi-million dollar experience taking in the beautiful coastline. The world can be considered.
Coru was handed over to Bezos last month. It underwent sea trials in February and is the world’s second-largest sailing vessel – behind only the Philippe Starck-designed sailing yacht, which is owned by Russian fertilizer billionaire Andrey Melnichenko.
Last year, before Koru was launched, the sheer size of her mast sparked an international controversy when Rotterdam announced that the middle section of the 100-year-old Koningshaven Bridge would be removed to allow the superyacht to enter the North Sea. .
According to reports, Bezos said he would pay for the bridge to be torn down and rebuilt — but his request was denied.
Angry locals also created a petition to pelt the boat with rotten eggs on its maiden voyage – which garnered thousands of signatures.
Koru was unveiled in March after five years of construction. Along with a personal submarine, Coru travels with a small 250-foot support vessel kitted out with a helipad and a collection of speedboats and supercars for Bezos and Sanchez to enjoy.
In response to the backlash, Rotterdam Mayor Ahmed Abutaleb said no permit had been applied for, and the masts were eventually attached to the bottom of the Rotterdam port.
The three-masted schooner yacht was finally delivered at the end of April and sailed from the Netherlands to Mallorca via Gibraltar.
Along with a personal submarine, Coru travels with a small 250-foot support vessel kitted out with a helipad and a collection of speedboats and supercars for Bezos and Sanchez to enjoy.
The flagship, which is painted midnight blue and has gold accents, has three decks, a pool and a huge sunroof – Bezos and Sanchez were spotted using the same earlier this week.
A 305-foot yacht owned by former Fox CEO Barry Diller is said to have been inspired by Eos, and the megaboat costs $25m-a-year to maintain.
