![EXCLUSIVE: Amazon boss Jeff Bezos once again shows of his buff body as he cozies up to girlfriend Lauren Sanchez on a boat trip with their family during holiday season in St-Barts. The divorcee, who split from ex-wife MacKenzie Scott in 2019, looked tanned, buff and a far cry from the geeky tech nerd he once was as he cosied up to current squeeze Lauren Sanchez on the Caribbean island. Estimated to be worth £156.8billion ($210billion), Bezos is the second richest man in the world after Elon Musk - and he's undergone a spectacular image transformation since finding his fortune in online shopping. Perhaps the biggest change to Bezos' image in recent years is that he appears to have hit the gym in earnest, substantially beefing up his frame. While the young Bezos was a little rounder of face, by the time he had amassed his fortune he had slimmed down and sported a lean look. However, since meeting new squeeze Lauren Sanchez - but as early as 2017 when he was still with his wife Mackenzie, Bezos has beefed up considerably, sporting the kind of physique usually reserved for action heroes. The 57-year-old puts his newfound beef down to lots of sleep - eight hours a night, a healthy diet and plenty of working out. Even so, Bezos has largely kept his body under wraps until now...but the hot weather in St Barts has clearly left him keen to let loose and showcase the hard work he has put in on making himself more toned. The star oozed confidence on his holiday with lover Sanchez in one of the first sightings of him strutting around in just a pair of shorts. 26 Dec 2021 Pictured: Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez.

Simon Cowell may be on vacation, but he’s not slacking on his workouts. The 61-year-old judge on The X Factor was photographed pumping iron dumbbell weights while enjoying a boat ride out in the Barbados water on Jan. 13. Simon, who was only wearing swim trunks, showed off his biceps and toned six-pack as he flexed them amid this shirtless workout.
Simon’s girlfriend Lauren Silverman was on the boat as well, since she joined the former American Idol judge for their annual getaway to the Caribbean island. They have been in Barbados for quite some time; the couple was also spotted enjoying a yacht ride in the Barbados town of Bridgetown on Dec. 30, right before ringing in 2021 abroad.
Simon’s vacation — and Wednesday’s iron session — goes to prove that he’s on the mend, five months after suffering a serious back injury that left a back scar. “Simon has broken his back in a number of places in a fall from his bike whilst testing a new electric bike in the courtyard of his home in Malibu with his family,” his rep told HollywoodLife at the beginning of Aug. 2020. The rep added that Simon “was taken to hospital where they operated overnight.”
Unfortunately, the quick operation still didn’t allow Simon to attend the AGT grand finale in Sept. 2020. “There is a lot of work still to be done for Simon to get back to 100 percent, but he is looking forward to getting back on his feet, literally,” a source close to the TV personality EXCLUSIVELY told HollywoodLife at the beginning of October, adding that “rehab and relaxation” is what Simon needed at the time.
Simon and Lauren’s six-year-old son, Eric, had also been a huge help amid his dad’s recovery process, we learned. “[Simon] really is enjoying this time with Eric, and he is loving that Eric is actually a big help around the house and getting things for his dad throughout his recovery. Whether it is something like a drink or food or a book, Eric is really stepping up and helping out,” our insider added. And it looks like all that downtime has paid off, judging by Simon’s recent weight-lifting session!
