Lauren Sánchez Celebrates Son Nikko’s Graduation With Fiancée Jeff Bezos & Ex-Husband

Former television reporter Lauren Sánchez celebrated her son Nikko‘s college graduation with their friends and family, including her NFL star ex Tony Gonzalez and his wife.

Sánchez, joined by her fiancée, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, took to Instagram to share footage from the celebration at home.

“I’m super excited to see what this next chapter in your life is going to be,” she told her 23-year-old son. “I know it’s going to be amazing. I am so proud of you. You have no idea how proud I am.”

Other images included family portraits, as well as photos of Sánchez with her son and his father. 

“Nikko, I am so proud of you! Congratulations, class of 2024. I couldn’t help but get emotional. We love you,” she captioned the post. 

Nikko was born in 2001, and Sánchez and Gonzalez split shortly after. In addition to Nikko, Sánchez is the mother of Ella, 15, and Evan, 16, whom she shares with her ex-husband Patrick Whitesell. 

Sanchez made headlines last month by wearing a revealing dress to a White House state dinner, which many on social media called “inappropriate.”
