Lauren Sanchez says Jeff Bezos a 'monster' in gym as she pushes herself to be game-fit for wedding
has likely been exercising ferociously ahead of her wedding later this month to Jeff Bezos. That's according to Nofar Hagag, who runs the New York and Miami Pilates studio Nofar Method. The billionaire Amazon founder, 61, and the journalist, 55, are set to tie the knot in Venice, Italy, in a $10 million June 24-26 celebration. Lauren is likely getting ready to flaunt her toned physique in whichever gown she chooses, Hagag predicts. In a 2023 interview with Vogue, the bride revealed that Jeff is a 'monster' in the gym, and that they do much of their training together. They cannot do everything together, however, as he is on a 'whole different level' than her. In the past, Lauren has taken to her Instagram page to share various videos of her workouts, which often include weight training and a lot of abdominal work. Previously, she shared a video of her quick, 20-minute workout with a trainer, which included Nordic hamstring curls, step-up knee drives, thrusters and bench step-overs. 'I only had 20 minutes to workout before taking kids to school. [Celebrity fitness trainer] Wes Okerson said it was enough time. He was right. Here it is,' Lauren wrote at the time. Around the same time, she showed off a similar routine, this time working on her upper body with dumbbell presses, barbell bench presses, push ups and dips on parallette bars. And it looks like Lauren is already ahead of schedule with her workouts, according to Hagag, who recommends that brides begin their fitness journey at least a few months before their wedding date. 'I recommend starting your bridal fitness journey at least three to six months ahead of your wedding day,' Hagag told exclusively. 'This allows time to build strength, improve posture, and develop long lean muscle tone without the stress of last-minute changes and crash diets. 'That said, even a few weeks of consistent work can make a meaningful difference, especially in posture and core strength, which look beautifully in photos and more importantly help with the way you feel confident and carry yourself on your special day.' The workouts that Lauren has documented over the years on her Instagram page are definitely good ones to go by, Hagag said. 'I love that Lauren chose to focus on weight training, especially by combining it with HIIT cardio and bodyweight exercises.' Getting a leg-up: Nofar Hagag recommends brides to be start their fitness regimen at least three to six months before the big day 'It's such an effective way to build tone and definition while keeping the body lean, sculpted, and strong without getting bulky.' For a weekly routine, Hagag suggests three days of weight training to 'build strength and tone,' two days of Pilates on equipment to 'refine posture' and create an 'elongated, sculpted look,' as well as one day of light cardio, like a walk in the park, to help your mental health. 'This mix helps you feel confident, grounded, and empowered in your body not just for your wedding day, but for life,' she said. But as you are preparing for the big day, as Lauren is, it's important to keep in mind that there's not necessarily a 'one-size-fits-all workout,' Hagag explained. 'The most important thing is to find movement that you genuinely enjoy that's the key to staying consistent. If it feels fun, you'll keep showing up.' Roughly 200 people are expected to attend the couple's three-day nuptials, Mayor of Venice Luigi Brugnaro confirmed in a statement.

The £100,000 facelift that's knocked years off Kris Jenner at 69
Everybody loves a transformation story. Had Grease been written in 2025, however, Olivia Newton John would have had to do a lot more than shuck on a biker jacket and a pair of Spandex trousers to make an impact. In a world where billions are vying for attention by ever more desperate means, transformations are two a penny. These days, no diet, makeover or wardrobe glow-up in the world can compete with the impact of a really good facelift. We all know Ozempic can make us thin, and that a stylist can help us dress better. But turning back the years to look 10 years younger? That's still a mystery; a cloak-and-dagger affair whose dark magic occurs behind closed doors, by unknown hands, at unknown cost, with unknown pain and recovery time. Which is likely why so many women can talk of little else these days than Kris Jenner. From the cruise shows of Avignon and Rome to the restaurants of Mayfair to the beach bars of Ibiza, the chat is the same: how, exactly, did the 69-year-old matriarch of the Kardashian clan get her dewy, youthful, plump-yet-taut new visage? And where can we get one? While most women might buy some new clothes to wear to a hen weekend, Kris Jenner went out and bought a new face. When the hen weekend is thrown by Jeff Bezos' soon-to-be-bride Lauren Sanchez, and takes place in Paris, perhaps a Me+Em dress doesn't cut it. No matter that Sanchez, Katy Perry, Eva Longoria and Kim Kardashian were dressed up in their finest garb: they may as well have worn Shein. All eyes were fixated upon Jenner. 'She looks just like Kim!' the internet exclaimed. Which she did – despite being a quarter of a century older. On Tiktok, the hashtag #krisjennernewface has been trending ever since Jenner unveiled her new look, with 57.5 million posts and counting. How-to videos abound, with everyone from surgeons to influencers to your auntie Karen chipping in with their opinions. 'She looks like she's fresh out of the womb,' says the influencer GK Barry, in a post that's had 468.9K views. 'What kind of freaky sorcery is this?' says another user. 'Who is this surgeon, because they are an artist.' The 'artist' in question is Dr Steven Levine, the New York-based surgeon beloved by A-listers for his natural-looking facial enhancements. In a statement shared by Page Six, Levine's representatives confirmed him as the surgeon behind Jenner's most recent work, though they didn't give further details about the procedures. Which hasn't stopped people from speculating. While most celebrities are understandably tight-lipped about the work they've had done, Jenner has previously been open about going under the knife, with one of her procedures even being documented on an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians. It's believed that this is Jenner's fifth surgery: as for what she's had done, that depends on who you ask. 'To achieve this sort of transformation in someone who is in their late 60s would likely require a deep plane face and neck lift, blepharoplasty and fat grafting to address lower face jowling and laxity in the neck area,' claims Dr Jonny Betteridge, founder of JB Aesthetics in Mayfair, London. 'This is likely revision surgery, as she would have had surgery in previous years.' According to leading plastic surgeon Patrick Mallucci, Jenner's rejuvenated face has made an impact on account of being unusually well-balanced. 'Looking at her before and after pictures, it appears she's had a brow lift, possibly her upper eyelids operated on, and a very well-done facelift, possibly a deep plane, though it's very difficult to tell the technique by looking at a picture,' he surmises. 'When you look at the thirds of her face – the upper, middle and lower – she's got a very nice, balanced jawline. Unlike some of the facelifts of 20 years ago, where people looked very obviously overpulled and overtightened, this really brings out her good features.' Mallucci's clinic in South Kensington, London, has seen a 30 per cent increase in facelift enquiries over the last five years, as the stigma of 'going under the knife' wanes, and procedures improve in terms of results and recovery time. 'While non-surgical treatments can complement face lifting and stave off the knife until later, ultimately there comes a time when only a facelift can truly rejuvenate an ageing face requiring anatomical improvement,' he says. The 'Rolls Royce' of these is the deep plane. Where a traditional facelift tightens the skin, a deep plane lifts and repositions deeper layers of facial tissue, including sagging muscles and fat, allowing for more natural-looking results which are also longer-lasting. A traditional facelift typically lasts five to seven years: a deep plane can last for up to fifteen. Their subtle results have made 'guess the deep plane' the internet's favourite parlour game, with Nicole Kidman, Anne Hathaway and Lindsey Lohan all recently being cited as allegedly having had the procedure, though this is pure speculation. For her part, Lohan says her appearance is thanks to a healthy diet and laser treatments. Celebrities who have admitted to having deep plane facelifts include the socialite Caroline Stanbury (who had hers aged 49) and the designer Marc Jacobs (who had his at 58). 'There is no such thing as an ideal age for a deep plane facelift, but over the age of 40-45 would generally make a great candidate,' notes the consultant plastic surgeon Mark Solomos. 'You can actually do a deep plane endoscopic facelift at the age of 35 without any obvious scars in front of the ear.' Nor does any previous work tend to be a barrier. 'The only things that would matter would be treatments such as Sculptra. Hyaluronic fillers don't matter too much unless you've overdone it, likewise excessive radio frequency, which tends to burn the fat and creates problems in the subcutaneous tissue.' As for whether 'the Kris effect' means surgeons should now be braced for a wave of clients wanting to look not 10 but 30 years younger than their age, Dr Mallucci believes that managing expectations is key. 'It's very important that I understand what it is that my patients are looking for, but it's equally important that I communicate to them what's realistically achievable. Promising results which are not surgically achievable serves no purpose and only causes disappointment.' And also a depleted bank balance. While a deep plane facelift typically costs between £25,000 – £60,000, it's estimated that the bill for Kris Jenner's work cost in the region of £100,000. Small change for the world's most successful 'momager', but a prohibitively eye-watering amount for most. When your life is lived through a long lens, in the pressure cooker that is Hollywood, it takes more than 'lots of water' to look your best. For better or for worse, the six figure facelift era starts here.

Inside Lauren Sanchez's brutal exercise regime ahead of her wedding to Jeff Bezos
In just a few short months, Lauren Sanchez will walk down the aisle to marry Amazon tycoon Jeff Bezos in a lavish Italian ceremony - with a star-studded guest list that reportedly features several members of the Trump family. While Sánchez appears to be keeping much of her wedding planning close to her chest, she is most likely getting ready to flaunt her toned physique in whichever gown she chooses. During her and her husband's 2023 interview with Vogue, the former journalist revealed that Bezos is a 'monster' in the gym, and that they do much of their training together. Though, they can't do everything together, as she noted that he was on a 'whole different level' than she is. And, with their wedding just weeks away, it would only make sense that Sánchez and her man are getting shredded together for their upcoming nuptials. In the past, the Blue Origin astronaut, now 55, has taken to her Instagram page to share various videos of her workouts, which often include weight training and a lot of abdominal work. Previously, she shared a video of her quick, twenty-minute workout with a trainer, which included Nordic hamstring curls, step-up knee drives, thrusters ad bench step-overs. 'I only had 20 minutes to workout before taking kids to school. [Celebrity fitness trainer] Wes Okerson said it was enough time. He was right. Here it is,' Sánchez wrote in the caption at the time.

There will be 200 people at the wedding of the year this summer, Mayor of Venice Luigi Brugnaro confirmed in a statement. Sánchez and Bezos's three-day celebration that will reportedly take place between June 24 and 26 Last month, shared that the couple is not getting married on a boat. 'The wedding will not take place on Jeff's yacht, that has been ruled out,' a source shared with Bezos and Sánchez went public with their relationship in 2019 and got engaged in May 2023. He proposed with a $2.5 million pink diamond ring so large that Sánchez admitted during an interview with Vogue that she 'kind of blacked out' when she saw it. The loved-up couple then celebrated their engagement with a star-studded party at Diane von Furstenberg and Barry Diller's Beverly Hills mansion in November 2023, with guests including Kim Kardashian, Robert Pattinson and Oprah.

Blue Origin's Next Space Launch Is Saturday: Here's How to Stream and What to Know
Blue Origin has been on a roll in 2025 with multiple successful launches already, and its next one is coming up on Saturday. The NS-32 mission will take six people into suborbital space for a quick jaunt before returning back to Earth. It's the third such New Shepard mission in 2025 so far, and the 32nd in total. The prior launch famously included an all-female crew featuring pop star Katy Perry, TV personality Gayle King, and journalist Lauren Sanchez. This mission is set to launch from Blue Origin's Launch Site One location in West Texas at 9:30 a.m. ET on May 31. Like the prior New Shepard missions, NS-32 will take its six crew members above the Kármán line — the internationally recognized boundary between Earth and space — to suborbital space for about 11 minutes before landing back on Earth. During the mission, the crew will experience the weightlessness of space while also getting an excellent view of the Earth. How to watch the NS-32 launch The launch will be webcast on Blue Origin's website with coverage starting 30 minutes before the launch, so 9 a.m. ET. If this launch coverage is the same as previous ones, the webcast will cover the launch itself, the entire flight, and the landing. Prior launches also included interviews with the crew to get their initial thoughts on going to space, which we expect will be included with the NS-32 webcast. Read more: SpaceX Loses Contact With Starship in Third Test Flight Failure in a Row If you miss the launch, you can still watch it later. The company posts all of its previous NS missions on its YouTube channel, typically within the same day as the launch. The New Shepard capsule is pressurized and climate controlled with window seats for all passengers Blue Origin What rocket is NS-32 using? NS-32 will be using the New Shepard rocket, like every other NS mission. This rocket is known for being fully reusable, with a small capsule at the top with room for all six passengers. Blue Origin says the vehicle is fully autonomous. It will launch, fly, and eventually land with no pilots, which is why none of the NS missions feature a human pilot. The rocket saw its first crewed launch in 2021 when Jeff Bezos famously took part in the flight. The crew includes a mixture of entrepreneurs and educators. Blue Origins Who is the NS-32 crew? Typically, Blue Origin crews have featured people from all walks of life, including teachers, business people, and celebrities. The NS-32 crew is no different, although it lacks the celebrity flair of the prior NS-31 mission. The crew includes: Paul Jeris Jeris is a real estate developer and entrepreneur. He has visited 149 countries and is looking to add space to his list of places visited. Jesse Williams Williams is a Canadian entrepreneur and the current CEO of Car History Group. He has climbed six of the seven highest peaks on Earth. Aymette (Amy) Medina Jorge Jorge is a high school and middle school teacher focusing on STEM subjects. She's the 2023 AIAA and Challenger Center Trailblazing STEM Educator Award winner. Dr. Gretchen Green Green is a radiologist specializing in women's imaging and has over 20 years of experience. Among her many accolades, she now serves on the US Space & Rocket Center Education Foundation Board. Jaime Alemán Alemán is a Panamanian attorney and businessman who also served as ambassador to the US. He also serves on the Special Olympics International's Board of Directors, Duke Law School's Board of Visitors, and the Woodrow Wilson's Latin America Board. Jaime will also be the first person ever to visit all 193 UN-recognized countries, the North and South Poles, and space. Mark Rocket The aptly named Rocket is an entrepreneur from New Zealand. He serves as CEO of Kea Aerospace and as the President of Aerospace New Zealand, furthering the country's interests in aerospace.

Lauren Sanchez nearly spills out of plunging dress as she dines in Italy with Jeff Bezos and her son Nikko
nearly spilled out of her plunging dress as she stepped out in Italy with fiancé Jeff Bezos and son Nikko Gonzalez on Tuesday evening. The former journalist, 55, enjoyed a luxurious dinner with her Amazon founder beau, 61, and her son, whom she shares with ex Tony Gonzalez, at the acclaimed Ristorante Puny in Portofino. She left little to imagination for the outing, donning a very-revealing pink and white leopard print maxi dress. The silky gown boasted an extremely low-cut neckline that left her ample cleavage on full display. Lauren completed the look with heeled, gold sandals and carried a tan clutch, as well as a denim jacket in case she got cold. She left her long, brown locks in loose waves and seemed in great spirits, smiling warmly at her soon-to-be-husband Jeff as they walked hand-in-hand. The billionaire, for his part, wore some blue jeans, a pink polo shirt, and sneakers. Lauren's son Nikko, 24, who made his modeling debut last year, opted for some white trousers and a black T-shirt. She left her long, brown locks in loose waves and seemed in great spirits They were also joined by an unidentified blonde for the dinner. The brunette beauty welcomed Nikko in 2002 with footballer Tony, but the couple split soon after. She also shares son Evan, born in 2006, and daughter Eleanor, born in 2008 with her ex-husband Patrick Whitesell. Jeff has four kids of his own from his marriage to Mackenzie Scott, which ended after his affair with Lauren was brought to light in 2019. Before their dinner, the group was seen taking a boat ride to shore from Jeff's $500 million megayacht. They have been vacationing on the vessel for the last few weeks, and they were spotted getting quite intimate on the boat last week. In extraordinary photos obtained by the Daily Mail, the mogul was seen groping and even spanking his fiancée's bottom as she lounged in the sun on the yacht. Lauren and Jeff are set to wed next month, and it's rumored that the couple, who have reportedly booked Elton John and Lady Gaga to perform, will say their 'I do's' on a Venetian island in an open-air theater.
