Edited by: Olga Sukhina

In late June 2025, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos sold approximately 3.3 million shares of the company, totaling nearly $737 million. This sale is part of a prearranged plan that allows him to sell up to 25 million shares by May 2026.

Bezos still holds about 905 million Amazon shares, remaining the largest individual shareholder. The funds are primarily directed towards his space venture, Blue Origin.

Bezos also married journalist Lauren Sánchez in Venice, Italy, in late June 2025. His net worth was estimated at $223 billion as of June 6, 2025.
