No More Hiding! Jeff Bezos Is Seen In First Outing Since Cheating Scandal Exposed
Jan. 19 2019, Updated 2:16 p.m. ET
The National ENQUIRER shocked the world with a blockbuster world exclusive how billionaire Jeff Bezos' divorce followed his steamy affair with mistress Lauren Sanchez.
Since then, the Amazon President, 55, has been lying low. But on Friday night, January 18, Bezos appeared to be flying high while accepting an award at an aviation event.
The world's richest man was honored at the 16th Annual Living Legends of Aviation Awards hosted by John Travolta at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles.
Incredibly, Bezos reportedly looked like he didn't have a care in the world while hobnobbing with rich and famous people at the bash. Bezos cheated on wife of 25 years MacKenzie with Sanchez, 49, a TV hostess and the spouse of Hollywood mogul Patrick Whitesell, as RadarOnline.com reported.
Whitesell is one of Hollywood’s most powerful talent agents, but Sanchez has been carrying on with married Bezos for eight months, as the ENQUIRER reported. Scroll through RadarOnline.com's gallery for more on Bezos finally surfacing after his scandal.
On Bezos' first public outing since he announced his divorce from wife MacKenzie after an exhaustive ENQUIRER investigation revealed his infidelity with mistress Sanchez, the mogul looked relaxed and confident.
Bezos, worth an estimated $137 billion dollars, got congratulated for his aviation award by the other guests, including Harrison Ford, who was honored at the event in 2018.
The Amazon chief founded Blue Origin, a privately funded aerospace manufacturer, and received the Jeff Bezos Freedoms Wings Award on January 18 for his entrepreneurial ways.

Bezos — a self-described "family man" — secretly whisked his mistress Sanchez off to exotic destinations on his $65 million private jet, sent her raunchy messages and erotic selfies, and carried on with her at palatial private estates, as the ENQUIRER reported.
Bezos and wife MacKenzie announced their divorce with this statement: "We feel incredibly lucky to have found each other and deeply grateful for every one of the years we have been married to each other. If we had known we would separate after 25 years, we would do it all again."
The wealthy jet set businessman and Sanchez share an interest in aviation. Sanchez is a licensed helicopter pilot and owns Black Ops Aviation, the first female-owned aerial film and production company. The TV personality worked as a consultant on the movie Dunkirk. She's said organizing aerial movie work is her "calling." But she didn't attend the January 18 event with Bezos.
While Bezos was flying solo at the aviation party, it probably won't be long before he will step out publically again with Sanchez. After all, she is in the midst of her own divorce from husband Whitesell.
Bezos and Sanchez haven't been seen out together since the ENQUIRER broke the news about their illicit relationship. But they shamelessly hung out together at the Golden Globes and he wore his wedding ring, as RadarOnline.com reported.
