What an honour it would be to be cucked by Laird Hamilton, not so much by Leo.

Lauren Sanchez, fiancé to Jeff Bezos, narrowly avoids Leo DiCaprio-esque imbroglio after coming face to face with world’s sexiest surfer Laird Hamilton!

“The former news anchor was clad in a black string bikini and a matching sarong as she palled around with (Hamilton) on the vessel."

I still remember the moment Laird Hamilton strolled into frame on a flat day at Sunset Beach. I was finishing an interview with the lifeguard Darrick Doerner, a fierce living desperado who had ridden thirty-foot Waimea Bay alone on Super Bowl Sunday in 1988, when a glossy man of great strength and beauty seized my attention. 

Although aloof through the mandatory introductions, I understood immediately his alpha status and admired the blonde waterfall that cascaded arrogantly over his forehead, its opulence beyond dispute.

Even now, as Hamilton edges towards sixty he is a man of epic proportions and as has been reported, “he has a beautiful heart, beautiful courage, a beautiful intelligence, everything about him is beautiful, his smile, his expression, his face.” 

Congratulations, obviously, are warranted for the magnificent robustness of his appearance.

Cut to a balmy November night two years ago and we find Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos, his then new gal Lauren Sanchez and rubber-faced Hollywood star Leo DiCaprio involved in a friendly tete-a-tete at the 10th Annual Los Angeles County Museum of Art  Art and Film Gala.

Footage captured of the brief meet suggested Sanchez was prepared to cuck Bezos there and then for Leo and the internet, understandably, revelled in the tiny billionaire’s humiliation. 

“Find you someone who looks at you the way Jeff Bezos’ girlfriend looks at Leo DiCaprio,” was a popular meme. 

Fast forward to the European summer of 2023 and Sanchez was taking no chances when photographed alongside Laird Hamilton on Bezo’s half-a-billionaire dollar superyacht Koru, moored just off France’s St Tropez. 

Despite tabloids trying to drum up a little heat between the pair  (“The former news anchor, 53, was clad in a black string bikini and a matching sarong as she palled around with their guest on the vessel… Hamilton, 59, was shirtless and wearing swim trunks”) Sanchez kept her gaze seaward and far away from the forceful torso and the crotch where the nylon of his surf trunks, likely the Pro Performance short from Laird Apparel, bulged intriguingly.
