Amazon founder and billionaire Jeff Bezos has jokingly threatened Leonardo Dicaprio after a video of his girlfriend looking star-struck on meeting the actor has gone viral on the internet. Leonardo attended the LACMA Art+Film Gala in Los Angeles on Saturday and as usual all eyes were on him, including those of Bezos’ girlfriend, Lauren Sanchez, while the entrepreneur stood silently beside her.
Taking to social media, Bezos hilariously tried to intimidate Leonardo and wrote, “Leo, come over here, I want to show you something,” alongside a shirtless photo of himself standing over a danger sign that reads, “Danger! Steep cliff. Fatal drop."

The six-second video of Lauren has gone viral on the internet. The video taken without context, appears to suggest that Bezos was the third wheel on this occasion- a fact that he himself seems to be aware of. The billionaire’s tweet has also gone viral. Several netizens responded with hilarious tweets as well.

Bezos has been romantically linked to American news anchor Lauren since 2019. Their relationship hogged the limelight shortly after the businessman announced his separation from his wife MacKenzie Scott after being married to her for 25 years in a surprise move.
