In a glamorous celebration fit for a billionaire, Lauren Sanchez threw an extravagant 60th birthday party for her fiancé, Jeff Bezos.
The star-studded event, held at their opulent Beverly Hills mansion, boasted an A-list guest list that included the likes of Kim Kardashian, Katy Perry, and Orlando Bloom.
However, noticeably absent were Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who were not extended an invitation to the exclusive affair.
Despite claims by the Sussex’s PR team that Harry and Lauren maintained a close relationship, their absence from the party spoke volumes.
It was reported that the couple’s photoshopped image, showcased at the Living Legends of Aviation Awards, was merely a facade.
The private bash, themed around celestial space-age aesthetics, paid homage to Bezos’ Blue Origin Aerospace company, as reported by The Sun.
Lauren Sanchez dazzled in a bespoke red Swarovski crystal gown designed by Laura Bashi, reminiscent of Jessica Rabbit’s iconic style.
The dress, meticulously hand-beaded over 800 hours, was a testament to Sanchez’s dedication to making the evening truly unforgettable.
She proudly shared behind-the-scenes glimpses on Instagram, showcasing her radiant presence before the festivities.
Sanchez went above and beyond to create an immersive experience for her soon-to-be-husband, including a replica of Bezos’ first Amazon office, complete with his original chair.
The lavish celebration drew in a star-studded crowd, with notable guests such as Oprah Winfrey, Bill Gates, Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber, Jay-Z, and Beyoncé, according to sources close to The Sun.
Attendees were treated to a diverse culinary offering, ranging from caviar to McDonald’s, paying tribute to Bezos’ humble beginnings.
To maintain an air of exclusivity, photography was strictly prohibited at the event, and guests were required to secure their phones in designated pouches upon arrival.
Despite these measures, many attendees took to Instagram to confirm their presence, including Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Ivanka Trump, Heidi Klum, Jewel, Kathy Hilton, Paris Hilton, and Nikki Hilton Rothschild.
While the guest list was brimming with high-profile names, Meghan and Harry found themselves conspicuously absent.
Sources revealed that the couple’s reputation for disregarding party rules regarding photography led to their exclusion.
Hollywood has become increasingly cautious about their privacy and security concerns.
Surprisingly, WME CEO Ari Emanuel’s wife attended the event but refused to secure a ticket for Meghan.
As invitations were sent out a month prior to the celebration, Meghan opted to arrange a trip to Jamaica instead of attending Jeff’s birthday party.
It is worth noting that Meghan had no involvement in the Bob Marley movie nor any personal connections to the actors; however, she still made an appearance at the film premiere.
The decision to flee to Jamaica seemingly aimed to save face after realizing their exclusion from Bezos’ lavish affair.
The irony of the situation was not lost on observers, as Meghan, once a sought-after guest, now found herself on the outside looking in.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who were once considered social royalty, have tarnished their reputation irreparably.
