Lauren Sanchez recently offered up more information about how her fiancé and Amazon founder Jeff Bezos asked for her hand in marriage earlier this year.
She told Vogue during an interview that Bezos asked her to marry him after she found the ring tucked under her pillow one May night. At the time, they were preparing to turn in for the night after eating dinner on Bezos’ massive "Koru" sailing yacht, according to the outlet.
Sanchez said she thought she "blacked out a bit" when he "opened the box" to propose, Vogue reported in its December issue.
Bezos and Sanchez have regularly used the billionaire’s relatively new yacht in recent months, according to available media reports and photos.

Sanchez also told the outlet that the couple is "still thinking about the wedding," with Bezos indicating he would let her take point on the arrangements.
"Is it going to be big? Is it going to be overseas?" she reportedly said. "We don’t know yet."
