Not welcome: Venice defends himself against Jeff Bezos’ wedding plans
Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is supposed to celebrate his wedding with Lauren Sánchez in Venice. The residents set a clear signal against the celebration.
The protests against the wedding of the Amazon founder in Venice apparently sparkle. A banner with the Venetian against the wedding of Jeff Bezos, 61 and Lauren Sánchez, 55, at the end of June, recently decorated a church tower. The banner with the name “Bezos”, crossed out with a red “X”, was hung by a group of activists who defend themselves against the wedding planned for the end of June, the bell tower of the Basilica San Giorgio Maggiore on the island of the same name in the Lagoon of Venice. This reports, among other things, the US Promi portal “TMZ”.
Alice Bazzoli, part of the anti-Bezos campaign, said that it was nothing personal against Bezos-but his exaggerated wedding was another blow against the locals who have already struggled with the daily tourist chaos of Venice. According to the British “Daily Mail”, the multi -billion dollar founder of the mail order has taken over the island of San Giorgio Maggiore for the wedding anniversary. He booked some luxury hotels and water taxis in the city.
Massive CO2 footprint of the guests of the Amazon founder feared
Increased security measures, blocked roads and an increased police presence would be feared – at a time when countless tourists are already besieging Venice. The massive CO2 footprint, the Bezos and its invited guests with their private aircraft should therefore also leave the locals should also be upset.
Also posters with words such as “No space for Bezos” are already paving the city. According to reports, further protests in the field of the well -known Rialo bridge are expected for Friday afternoon.
Wedding should crown patchwork happiness with seven children
Bezos and Sánchez got engaged in May 2023. As one of the richest people in the world, the Amazon founder will probably cost himself a lot. According to media reports from March, five luxury hotels in Venice and all the city’s water taxis are said to have been booked for the wedding. Shortly afterwards, however, there were opposing reports that many of the unsuccessful speculations about the wedding should be fake news.
It is the second marriage for both. Jeff Bezos was married to Mackenzie Scott, 55, with whom he had four children. Former television reporter Lauren Sánchez was married to Patrick Whitesell from 2005 to 2019, with whom she has two children. From a previous relationship she also has another son.
