Jeff Bezos and enjoyed an A-list double date on Sunday as they welcomed Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria aboard their $485million superyacht, Koru.
Hollywood actor Leo, 50, and his model girlfriend, 27, know their way around the ship, having previously joined the couple and bevy of stars for a trip last summer in Sardinia. This time, however, the quartet were living it up in Ibiza.
They were casually clad for the day at sea, with Leonardo sporting a plain white T-shirt and shorts, as well as his trademark baseball cap and shades.
Vittoria's model figure was on display in a blue strapless top that she paired with black yoga pants.
Meanwhile Jeff, 61, and Lauren, 55, opted for clashing prints, with Lauren layering a printed kimono over a bikini while Jeff wore tropical swimming trunks with a navy T-shirt.
The double date comes just weeks after the Amazon founder and presenter tied the knot in Venice - with the ceremony attracting criticism for its extravagance.
Leonardo and Vittoria were among the VIP guests in attendance, which also included Sydney Sweeney, Oprah Winfrey and Orlando Bloom.
Yet Leonardo faced a backlash, with the Hollywood star - who is known for his environmental advocacy - branded a 'hypocrite' for flying to Venice for the ceremony.
The Titanic star has previously been open about his activism and a few months earlier in March, he slammed the Albanese government for giving the green light to a mine expansion in Western Australia.
Yet social media users called out DiCaprio for flying to the wedding and slammed him for supporting Jeff amid Amazon's substantial carbon footprint.
According to The Guardian, over 90 jets flew into the airport in the romantic city as celebrities attended the nuptials. It is not known if Leonardo took a private jet to the ceremony.
Jeff and Lauren's wedding reportedly cost some $40million - which also faced protests in the city of Venice.
Now Lauren wears a $5million diamond wedding ring that has fans as well as jewelers in an uproar.
One of their A-list wedding guests recently revealed what their lavish nuptials were really like as they disclosed that none of the Bezos couple's 200 guests were told to sign non-disclosure agreements.
The group have been good friends for years and often enjoy lavish trips together
Sara Foster, the daughter of composer David Foster, shared details about the glamorous Venetian wedding on Thursday's episode of her The World's First Podcast.
While talking to her sister Erin, she surprisingly revealed: 'No one signed NDAs. No NDAs.'
She also said that the ceremony was 'very intimate' when asked to dish on the 'wedding of the century.'
'There's nothing. It's so interesting how the optics were this over-the-top, you know, protestors... It's just not, it's not what it was. It actually felt very intimate.'
She also revealed that there were 'definitely a lot of people that were not photographed' but chose to keep mum on the identities of the low-key attendees.
'I can't. I mean, that's, like, so lame. I'm not gonna do that. But it's very interesting how many people went un-photographed. It was definitely a very interesting set-up.'
The wedding festivities spanned three days, with the event kicking off with a foam party on their boa t.
The couple partied off the island of Cres in Croatia in a final pitstop before arriving in Italy for their long-awaited wedding.
Jeff's superyacht is named the Koru, which translates to 'new beginnings' in Maori, according to The Independent.
The Amazon founder initially commissioned the construction of the vessel for $485million in 2018, and it took almost five years to build.
The Koru has three decks and is 250-feet tall, marking the world's tallest sailing yacht.
Boat International reported in April 2023 that it has a trio of masts that measure at a distance eclipsing 230 feet. It measures at a width of 416 feet, only one of four yachts globally that eclipses the length of 328 feet.
The vessel was made by the Dutch company Oceano.
The boat was the topic of controversy in February 2022 when Oceano asked Rotterdam to take apart a bridge that is more than 100 years old, the Koningshaven Bridge, to accommodate the masts of the Koru.
Amid local protests, Oceanco made alternate plans to install the masts.
Meanwhile, Jeff and Lauren are said to be working on a new venture - helping Sydney Sweeney launch a lingerie line.
The Euphoria star, 27, recently raised eyebrows after attending the Amazon founder's lavish wedding despite not being friends with the couple.
But it seems the new project might partly be why, as Jeff and his wife have reportedly 'invested' in her venture, according to Us Weekly.
An insider revealed the Emmy-nominated actress is 'launching a lingerie line very soon', in news that comes in line with rumours she is set to be a Bond Girl.
'This has been a huge project for her and something she's been working on for the last year,' the source added.
The lingerie line is being backed by Ben Schwerin, a partner at private equity firm Coatue according to Puck.
The company recently had a $1billion investment from Bezos and fellow tech giant Michael Dell via their Coatue Innovation Fund.
It seems Sydney's arrival at the wedding was a show of respect for her future boss, as per Page Six.
Back in March, Sydney signed on to star in the video game adaptation of the recent hit Split Fiction.
The adaptation will be directed by Jon M. Chu (Wicked) and written by Rhett Reese and Paul Wernick (Deadpool & Wolverine).
Then in early June, Amazon MGM Studios picked up the project, which seemingly lead to an invite extended to Sydney for the wedding.
A source admitted Sydney, 'is not friends with either one of them,' though adding she, 'came to pay respect to the 'boss,' just like in the old days of Hollywood.'
The fantasy/sci-fi game Split Fiction follows authors Mio and Zoe who become trapped within the worlds they have written.
It's unclear which of the two main characters Sweeney will portray, with Amazon said to be 'actively looking' to cast her co-star.
Her affiliation with Jeff, who has creative control of the next James Bond movie, also appears to have brought her closer to one of the most esteemed roles a Hollywood star could ask for - that of a Bond Girl.
A movie source said: 'Sydney is the top name on the casting sheet for Bond. Denis believes she is hugely talented, as well as having an alluring appeal to younger generations, vital in modernising the franchise...
'They've hung out together a lot and he has admired her stratospheric rise. Plus she has the quality of being athletic and able to perform physical scenes, as well as being feminine and following in the legacy of Bond girls.'
Though Sydney is primarily known for her acting career, she's also been growing a business empire.
Earlier in May she collaborated with men's grooming brand Dr. Squatch to launch a limited-edition soap bar called 'Bathwater Bliss.'
According to the brand, the soap contains actual droplets of Sydney's used bathwater - which some fans found 'weird' and 'gross.'
She also serves as a global ambassador for brands including Laneige skincare, Kérastase haircare, HeyDude footwear, and Bai beverages.
Sydney will be returning to HBO's Euphoria as Cassie Howard, and she recently starred in Apple TV Plus' Echo Valley with Julianne Moore.
She is also playing trailblazing female boxer Christy Martin in an upcoming biopic that is in post-production and expected to be released later this year.
Sydney has an estimated net worth of $40 million and in 2023 she made Forbes' 30 Under 30 list.
