Katie Couric gets last laugh after slamming Bezos wedding as 'tacky'

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.

She also carried a bold green leather designer tote, which she proudly slung over her shoulder in one snap — a luxe finishing touch to the look.

The former Today show host beamed as she posed alongside fellow A-listers like Christie Brinkley and John Leguizamo, clearly reveling in the high-profile moment.

After her sharp dig at the power couple, other fans chinmed in for suport of Katie. 

One simply wrote ‘love you’ after a string of tears-of-laughter emojis.

‘Spot on! 👏 “Money can’t buy you class..😂,” agreed another fan. 

Among the celebrity guests at the wedding was a solo Orlando Bloom, who made his debut as a single man just days after he was reported to have split from his longtime fiancée Katy Perry.

Although her absence was reportedly due to conflicting tour dates, she shared a sweet message on social media with Sánchez to celebrate her big day.

During the wedding celebrations, Orlando raised eyebrows when he was spotted wrapping an arm around a mystery woman.

She was later revealed to have a connection to his ex, as she is the former stylist of both Katy and Meghan Markle. 

News of Bloom and Perry’s breakup was confirmed by sources after weeks of rampant speculation.

The couple first got together in 2016 before splitting up and getting back together in 2018.

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