Do we hear wedding bells ringing in Soho? Jeff Bezos, the creator of Amazon and a part-time astronaut, was seen with his girlfriend, Lauren Sanchez, in New York City today, with Sanchez wearing a particularly conspicuous piece of jewelry.

DailyMail.com photographs show Sanchez wearing a large yellow heart-shaped ring while running errands in Los Angeles on Monday, fueling speculation that Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos has proposed.

Sanchez has been wearing this ring (on this finger) for at least a few days, according to her Instagram photos. As she and Bezos departed lunch at Cipriani Soho, Sanchez sported the rock with a white jacket and a Hermès Birkin bag. Sanchez’s ex, former NFL tight end Tony Gonzalez, and his wife, October Gonzalez, were said to be dining with them.

The ring, according to Kathryn Money, VP of Strategy & Merchandising for Brilliant Earth, contains a 7-to 10-carat yellow, heart-shaped diamond and costs between $100,000 and $150,000 “depending on the quality and specific characteristics of the center yellow diamond.”

The rumor of an engagement comes little over a month before Bezos’s planned launch into space with Blue Origin.

Sanchez, on the other hand, was photographed wearing a different (albeit still very big) ring on her engagement finger in July. She wore the heart-shaped diamond ring, which sparked engagement speculations.

Sanchez and Bezos started dating in 2018 and were forced to go public after someone threatened to leak personal pictures of the couple.

After 25 years of marriage, Bezos divorced Mackenzie Scott, with whom he was married at the time. Sanchez, who was married to Patrick Whitesell, a renowned celebrity agent, divorced as well.

Meanwhile, after obtaining a sizable inheritance from her divorce, Scott joined The Giving Pledge, pledging to give away the vast bulk of her estimated $35 billion fortune. Scott will provide roughly $6 billion to 500 charities in 2020. Scott contributed another $2.74 billion in June, his third round of donations in less than a year.

Sanchez and Bezos spent most of the last year on the seas, including a voyage on David Geffen’s boat off the coast of Spain and a separate excursion onboard a super yacht near Venice, Italy.
