Patrick is currently in the process of divorcing Lauren, the former "So You Think You Can Dance" host, and it looks like the split is totally amicable.

Jeff Bezos Relationship with TV Host Lauren Sanchez ... Led to Divorce
-
Exclusive Details
- 4.5K shares
Jeff Bezos was having a relationship with former "So You Think You Can Dance" host Lauren Sanchez, and according to the National Enquirer, that's what ended his marriage.
Sources closely connected with Lauren and her estranged husband, William Morris Endeavor mega-agent Patrick Whitesell, tell TMZ Lauren was indeed "seeing" Bezos in the later part of 2018. The sources add Sanchez and Whitesell separated last summer and are in the process of divorcing, and her relationship with Bezos did not begin until after her separation.
Same goes for Bezos. We're told he and MacKenzie were also separated when he and Lauren started hooking up.
We're told both Patrick and MacKenzie have known about the relationship for months.
Our sources add, Jeff and MacKenzie have known Lauren and Patrick as good friends for 10 years. Lauren and Patrick have a home in the Seattle area -- where Jeff and MacKenzie live -- and they spend a lot of time there, especially in the summer.
Lauren is an accomplished pilot of helicopters and planes, and a lot of time in the air up there. She owns a helicopter and production company.
And sources tell us, the relationship between Sanchez, who also hosted "Extra," is not "fleeting." It is still going on strong.

Jeff Bezos Divorcing after 25-Year Marriage ... $137 BILLION on the Line
Jeff Bezos has announced he and his wife are divorcing ... and a record $137 BILLION is on the line.
Bezos said on Twitter that -- after what he called a trial separation -- he and his wife, MacKenzie, have now decided to end their 25-year marriage.
Bezos, who is 54, made it clear the divorce is amicable, saying, "We feel incredibly lucky to have found each other and deeply grateful for every one of the years we have been married to each other."
And, this is interesting ... he clearly views the marriage as a success ... "If we had known we would separate after 25 years, we would do it all again."
They met in New York when he was vice president of a hedge fund. He had actually interviewed her for a job. They married in 1993 -- 6 months after they met -- and they quit their Wall Street jobs and moved to Seattle where Jeff opened an online bookstore -- the origin of Amazon. Just like Steve Jobs, Bezos started the bookstore in his garage.
They are both super smart ... they graduated from Princeton, but did not meet there ... she's 6 years younger than him.
MacKenzie is a novelist, who studied under Toni Morrison and won an American Book Award in 2006 for "The Testing of Luther Albright." She's also the Executive Director of an anti-bullying org. called Bystander Revolution.
JULY 2018
The multi-billion dollar question ... is there a prenup? They live in Washington, which is a community property state. That means any assets accrued during the marriage are split 50/50, unless, of course, there's a prenup. There are signs there was NOT a prenup ... Jeff reportedly became a millionaire in 1997.
Bezos, the richest man in the world with more than a $40 billion edge over #2 Bill Gates, says, "Though the labels might be different, we remain a family, and we remain cherished friends."
Amazon is now the most valuable company on the planet ... worth nearly $810 BILLION!
Jeff and McKenzie announced last year they were starting a charitable fund to help homeless families and create preschools. It seems they will continue to work on their charitable projects together. In his statement, Bezos said they "see wonderful futures ahead, as parents, friends, partners in ventures and projects, and as individuals pursuing ventures and adventures."
By the way ... as crazy as it sounds, Bezos took a big hit last year. His net worth was as high as $160 billion, but that dwindled to $137 billion.
Jeff and McKenzie own a total of 400,000 acres of property, not only making them baronial, but 2 of the biggest landholders in the country.
They have 4 children together. They range in age from 13 to 18.

Justin and Hailey Bieber House Hunting ... Is This One Big Enough?!?
Justin and Hailey Bieber are still looking to become L.A. homeowners ... because they just checked out a massive property that's definitely large enough to start their new family.
The newlyweds were seen leaving this Encino mansion Tuesday afternoon, and it doesn't look like a second straight day of house hunting is stressing them out.
Justin and Hailey checked out a sprawling estate in the Royal Oaks section of Encino ... and the deets are pretty wild. It's 12,500 square feet of luxury sitting at the end of a cul-de-sac, and the 10-bedroom, 11-bathroom home is being listed for a cool $13 million!
Yeah, that's a hefty price tag ... but JB is already renting a place in the valley for $100k/month, so he can definitely afford it.
Sounds like this new place has plenty of space for their furry new family addition to roam around.

Emily Blunt & John Krasinski Drop $11 Mil for Full-Floor Spread
Emily Blunt and John Krasinski have an entire floor in an NYC luxury apartment building all to themselves -- but it didn't come cheap ... and their work ain't over yet.
The couple spent around $11 million this past summer to close on two units in Brooklyn Heights' swanky Standish building -- where Matt Damon once spent upwards of $16 mil for a penthouse. Em and John don't quite touch his number, but it's close.
The two apartments -- which are adjacent to each other -- take up the entire eighth floor. While it's not set in stone just yet ... chances are, John and Emily are gonna be knocking down some walls to have one giant home.
The square footage of the units isn't listed, but if it's anything like the entire 10th floor unit -- which is reportedly 5,000 square feet -- the couple will have plenty of space for themselves and their two kids. It also comes with all the bells and whistles you'd expect ... a doorman, an elevator, a concierge, a gym and lots more.
John and Emily appear to be fleeing the West Coast and relocating in New York -- they've already unloaded two homes in L.A. over the past couple of years.
Welcome to the City, you two.

Trevor Lawrence GF Predicted National Title ... 2 Years Ago!!
Trevor Lawrence's girlfriend landed a winner ... and she knew it 2 YEARS AGO ... 'cause she predicted her man would win the national championship back in 2017!!!!
The freshman Clemson star has been dating college soccer player Marissa Mowry since early 2016 ... and while we were doing some research on the dreamy QB's lady, we came across this prophecy from January 9, 2017:
"Two more years then you'll be a National Champ😉 #GoTigers"
Not only was Marissa right ... but the fact that Trevor beat out Kelly Bryant to take over the starting gig as a true freshman and lead the Tigers over Bama in the title game makes this just. plain. FREAKY.
The prediction was bold ... but the confidence in her man was justified -- Trevor was considered one of the greatest high school QB prospects ever.
We've reached out to Marissa for comment (and some lottery numbers) ... so far, no word back.

Sources close to the hip-hop couple tell TMZ ... they've been communicating regularly -- including while they were thousands of miles apart over the holidays -- and are focusing on fixing their marriage.
We're told Offset's vowing to change his ways and be faithful and honest with her, and Cardi's been receptive ... because she misses what they had together.
Cardi's still not wearing her wedding ring ... but not because she's acting like she's single. We're told she's just not emotionally ready to put it back on quite yet.
We broke the story ... the 2 looked like they'd reconciled shortly before Christmas on a fun-filled, jet ski-riding, Puerto Rican vacation -- and they admittedly miss each other ... at least, sexually.
