"We are the Brady Bunch!": Lauren Sánchez shares a rare photo with her three children, opens up about her big family ahead of her upcoming wedding

Lauren Sánchez, the woman who led the all-female crew to space via Blue Origin, recently posted a rare photo of herself with her three children. Although the journalist/media personality has shared photos of her children on her Instagram, it is not often you get to see them all together. Sánchez is currently engaged to former Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and, according to rumors, the wedding date is somewhere in June.

Lauren was previously married to Patrick Whitesell, an American businessman and founder of Endeavor. She had two children with him: Evan, who is 18, and Ella, 17. However, she shares her first son, Nikko, 24, with former National Football League tight end player Tony Gonzalez.

On Mother's Day, Lauren Sánchez uploaded an Instagram story featuring her with her three children. She captioned the photo:

"Thank you for picking me as your mama! Best day ever/ My whole world in one frame."

Lauren Sánchez talks about her growing family

Lauren Sánchez had always talked about how much she loves spending time with her children and her family in general. During an interview with The Wall Street Journal in 2023, she shared:

"On a typical Saturday, we hang out, we have dinner with the kids, which is always fun because you never know where the conversation is going to go with this many kids... We are the Brady Bunch!

By "kids," Sánchez not only refers to her three children, but also Jeff Bezos' four children, whom he shares with his ex-wife MacKenzie Tuttle.

There seems to be no bad blood between the former Amazon CEO and Tuttle. According to a joint statement with Jeff Bezos, a 2018 X (then called Twitter) post stated:

"We've had such a great life together as a married couple, and we also see wonderful futures ahead, as parents, friends, partners in ventures and projects, and as individuals pursuing ventures and adventures. Though the labels might be different, we remain a family, and we remain friends."

The same can be said about Lauren's relationship with her ex-partners. She commented on their relationship dynamics:

"Tony and his wife are my best friends... Tony and Tobie were at Thanksgiving with us [this year]. I'm so proud of it. My son looks at me, and he's like, 'I'm the luckiest boy in the world because I can have Thanksgiving with both my parents and they don't have to be married."

While Lauren Sánchez shares a close bond with her three children, she is also getting ready to grow her family some more this year. The Black Ops Aviation founder and the former Amazon CEO will be tying the knot this year in Venice, with probable dates from June 26 to June 29.
