Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Lauren Sanchez, the fiancée of Amazon founder Jeff Bezos, sat together at President Donald Trump’s inauguration on Monday and a moment from the event between them seemed to capture people’s attention.

A photo shared by the Daily Mail seemed to show Zuckerberg staring at Sanchez’s chest. Videos posted on social media made it clear that it was a mere glance.

Newsweek reached out to Meta via email for comment on Monday.

Why It Matters

Zuckerberg was among several tech leaders who attended Trump’s swearing-in ceremony Monday afternoon, and he had his wife Priscilla Chan by his side. Sanchez, a former journalist, came to the inauguration with her fiancé Bezos wearing a laced bustier underneath a tailored single-breasted white blazer with cross-over lapels from Alexander McQueen. Her outfit stunned people with Summer Anne Lee, a presidential fashion historian and professor at the Fashion Institute of Technology, telling Newsweek, “I gasped when I saw it!”

What To Know

The Daily Mail said Zuckerberg was “busted over inappropriate act” with Sanchez after a freeze-frame appeared to show Zuckerberg staring at Sanchez’s chest.

A video of the interaction shared on X, formerly Twitter, showed Zuckerberg quickly looking down at Sanchez and then away from her.

What People Are Saying

Conservative X account Amuse posted Monday, “Lauren Sanchez, Jeff Bezos’ fiancée, captivated Mark Zuckerberg during the inauguration!”

An X user who goes by Art Candee and posts political commentary, wrote on X on Monday, “I would hate for this picture of Mark Zuckerberg staring down the shirt of Jeff Bezos’ fiancée Lauren Sanchez during Donald Trump’s inauguration to go viral. Would be such a shame for Zuck.”

President Donald Trump said during his inaugural address on Monday: “We will stand bravely, we will live proudly, we will dream boldly and nothing will stand in our way because we are Americans. The future’s ours and our golden age has just begun.”

President Joe Biden on X on Monday wrote: “It has been the honor of our lifetimes to serve you, the American people.”

What Happens Next

Zuckerberg, Sanchez and many of the other VIPs in attendance Monday were expected to attend various inaugural balls and parties being held in Washington, D.C.

Trump, meanwhile, is expected to sign nearly 100 executive orders implementing his new agenda on Monday. These orders include shutting down the U.S.-Mexico border, ending the Russia-Ukraine war, reversing Biden-era climate policies and pardoning January 6 prisoners.

He also plans to issue executive orders renaming two prominent natural features on his first day as president. The Gulf of Mexico will be renamed the Gulf of America, while Mount Denali, the highest peak in North America, will revert to its previous federal name, Mount McKinley.
