Over the weekend, Katie Couric made a striking impression as she appeared effortlessly stylish at an upscale Hamptons party, coming just weeks after her very public critique of Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s extravagant wedding.
The esteemed broadcaster, aged 68, surprised many when she took to social media on the couple’s wedding day, directing a sharp comment at the Amazon founder and his new wife, labeling their event as ‘tacky.’
Couric’s remark was a reaction to Sanchez’s Vogue bridal cover, where she wittily noted, ‘Welcome to the eighties — when big hair and conspicuous consumption ruled. Apparently tacky is back.’
Fans ate it up, with one replying, ‘I love this side of Katie Couric!’
Bezos and Sánchez’s so-called ‘wedding of the century’ was a lavish, multi-day spectacle in Venice, drawing A-listers like Kim Kardashian, Tom Brady, and Sydney Sweeney for a nonstop carousel of parties — including a pajama party.
Now, Couric may be showing she can play the glam game her own way.

Bloom proposed to Perry in 2019 and they welcomed daughter Daisy Dove, now four-years-old, in August 2020.
