Old photos of Lauren Sánchez have resurfaced, and it’s safe to say that the 55-year-old looked remarkably different before she was thrust into the spotlight.

The American journalist, and Jeff Bezos’ fiancée, has always been a topic of conversation among the public. And as a woman herself, the subject of physical appearance and plastic surgery have unfortunately often been brought up in a negative manner. 

Highlights
  • Lauren Sánchez's old photos show a strikingly different look before she dated Jeff Bezos, sparking fan fascination.
  • Fans and netizens widely speculate about Sánchez's plastic surgery, though she has never confirmed or denied it.
  • Sánchez is not just known for her appearance but also as a licensed helicopter pilot passionate about aviation.

She’s always been striking, but many fans have also widely speculated that a part of that was due to plastic surgery, although Sánchez has never confirmed these rumors.

    An author and news contributor took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to post a video of the star at the 78th Cannes Film Festival, taking place from the 13th to the 24th of May. She stunned in a sparkling black gown, with her hair tied up into a loose bun, adorning the fit with silver jewelry.

    “Jeff Bezos’ fiancée Lauren Sanchez shows off her new look, ahead of her upcoming wedding to the billionaire,” the caption informed. “She has never publicly acknowledged or denied having plastic surgery, despite drastic changes to her appearance.”

    He later added two new photos of the retired TV reporter as he wrote, “Sanchez now appears dramatically different compared to her former self. She is pictured below, years prior to meeting Bezos.”

    According to the Atlanta Black Star, the first photo was taken in 2002 as she stood next to her then-boyfriend, former Kansas City Chiefs star Tony Gonzalez, at a launch party in Los Angeles. The two shared a son, Nikko, who had been born in 2001.

    The second, featuring Sánchez in a red top, was most likely taken in 2004, during The Bourne Supremacy premiere at ArcLight Cinema in Hollywood, California.

    Many people suspect Sánchez has had plastic surgery, but she has never confirmed these rumors

    Replies were, unsurprisingly, less than flattering, as netizens once again brought up the cosmetic surgeries they believe Sánchez received.

    “Ruined… Why do women insist on doing this to themselves? I just dont get it. Please explain why females need to have plastic surgery,” one message read.

    “Never knew she looked like this!” another said in shock. “She was gorgeous!! WHY!!!!!!”

    “Why would she do that to herself?” a third asked.

    Someone observed, “It looks like too much filler in her lips, cheeks, and face. She’s had a nose job. I’m unsure if it’s a facelift or just too much Botox.”

    Netizens thought she looked beautiful in her past photos

    Sánchez has yet to publicly speak about whether she’s gone under the knife, but various industry insiders and medical professionals have pointed out the possibility of several enhancements, such as breast augmentation and facial fillers in her lips and cheeks, according to Life & Style.

    But Sánchez is known for much more than just her physical appearances. The 55-year-old is a licensed helicopter pilot and has a genuine passion for aviation — quickly making her presence known in a field often dominated by men.

    As per the previous outlet, this was one of the reasons her and Bezos connected during their very first meeting.

    She took her aviation dreams to the next level last month in April when she joined Katy Perry and others onboard an all-female crew aboard her fiancé’s Blue Origin space capsule, experiencing zero gravity while wearing the signature blue suit.

    Bezos and Sánchez are expected to tie the knot in June of this year. The two first met in 2018 following their respective divorces, and it was this that launched the 55-year-old into media scrutiny.

    Often talked about for her fashion choices, such as during the 2025 presidential inauguration, it looks as if the public fascination for Sánchez continues to grow, especially as her life unfolds alongside Bezos.

    Despite Sánchez never acknowledging any rumors of plastic surgery, people are convinced she has gone under the knife

    Too bad she couldn't afford a better plastic surgeon.

    Too bad she's not allowed to age gracefully in a world that would call her 55-year-old self an old ugly h*g.
