Bill Gates Arrives in Venice for Bezos and Sanchez Wedding Celebration

Venice: Bill Gates arrived in Venice Thursday for Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s divisive three-day wedding bash that activists have condemned for making the lagoon city into a playground for the uber-rich and which local officials have welcomed for the major influx of cash and trade it had brought.

According to Ansa News Agency, the co-founder of Microsoft is staying at the St. Regis Venice, the luxurious hotel on the Grand Canal, overlooking Punta della Dogana, where Ivanka Trump, daughter of the President of the United States, and her family are also based.
