Jeff Bezos throws his wedding ring (and mistress) to the gala and is seen with his wife MacKenzie in Aspen

Jeff Bezos was back in Los Angeles on Friday. It was the first time that the CEO of Amazon was seen in public since he had announced his separation from his wife MacKenzie.

The richest man in the world flew out of Seattle for the Living Legends Awards Gala, where he was one of the winners of the evening.

The photos of the event show Bezos posing with guests, including John Travolta and Harrison Ford, inside the Beverly Hilton Ballroom.

There was however no trace of the alliance of Bezos or his mistress, Lauren Sanchez, who was looking for a carter, who were present two weeks earlier when the CEO of Amazon organized the Golden Globe Awards after an evening in the same place.

Bezos quickly fled the City of Angels, the recordings of flights obtained by DailyMail.com showing that the billionaire returned to Seattle early Saturday.

DailyMail.com also got a photo published just two days before the new year, which shows Bezos and his ex-wife MacKenzie having dinner with a group of friends.

Ten days later, the two men announced their separation.

Bezos had already made waves during the New Year holidays after the video showing that he was riding a horse in Kemo Sabe, a very sought after Aspen retailer.

He was accompanied by his brother Mark during this outing.

Bezos frequently spent holidays with all his family. In 2017, he was seen in Italy with Mark, his sister Christina, their wife, mother and stepfather.

We also saw a beloved Bezos kissing his wife Mackenzie on this trip while they were walking in the Campo dei Fiori market.

It is not known whether he and MacKenzie still live together in Seattle, where the couple raised their three sons and their daughter.

There is certainly plenty of room for the couple, who bought two adjacent properties just outside the city, in Medina, including Bill Gates and Costco co-founder Jeffrey Brotman.

Bezos first bought two houses on a 5.3 acre lot in 1998 for $ 10 million and then dropped about $ 53 million to acquire the neighboring land in 2010.

The couple also owns a $ 23 million townhouse in Washington, a $ 13 million apartment complex on Central Park West in Manhattan, a Beverly Hills villa bought by Bezos in 2007 for $ 24.5 million dollars and a 30,000-acre ranch in Texas.

According to the flight records obtained by DailyMail.com, Sanchez and Bezos seemed to have spent a lot of time together at this huge Texas ranch during the holidays.

A plane registered with the Sanchez company flew to the Van Horn area just before Thanksgiving, staying there five days before returning to California.

The same plane then returned to Van Horn just before Christmas on December 16th, remaining in the area for five days before returning to Santa Monica.

Sanchez still lives with her husband Patrick Whitesell in their Beverly Hills complex, worth $ 15.8 million.

The couple also owns a $ 6.2 million home on Merer Island in Washington, allowing them to get to know Bezos.
