I won't be having a small second wedding. Here's why
I t was apparently Samuel Johnson who wrote that second marriages are 'a triumph of hope over experience' (although Oscar Wilde often gets the credit). Either way, there's definitely something triumphant about Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's second time saying 'I do'.
While they have both been married before — and were still married when they got together, if their leaked text messages are to be believed — the world's fourth-richest man and his bride-to-be are reportedly having a very big day in Venice this week. We're talking superyachts, 27 couture outfit changes and the city's hotels block-booked for their 200 closest friends, including Musk, Zuckerberg, the Kardashians and co.
Tying the knot for a second time has officially shaken off its low-key associations. It's no longer a sheepish affair, involving a non-white dress and sarcastic comments about 'second time lucky'.
