She was met with intense criticism after donning a skimpy outfit that exposed her cleavage during Donald Trump's swearing-in on January 20.

Megyn Kelly, a journalist for Fox News, blasted the Sanchez, saying that she looked like a “hooker” at the event due to her dress choice.

Amidst all the anger, it seems Sanchez has reacted to the criticism directed at her bold appearance.

On Saturday morning, Bezos' fiance reshared an enigmatic quote about making people “feel good” on her Instagram Stories. “People feel good about themselves make other people feel good too. Turns out the opposite is also true. Remember that,” the quote read.

At the inauguration, Sanchez looked stunning in a white Alexander McQueen pantsuit, revealing a lace corset below her jacket, which she kept unbuttoned.

Social media went into overdrive over the revealing outfit choice, with one X user calling it “obscene” and another demanding, “Put them away for one day.”

Megyn Kelly ripped into Lauren Sanchez

Megyn launched a brutal attack on Sanchez on The Megyn Kelly Show, accusing her of looking “like a hooker” during Trump's oath ceremony.

“Have some dignity and some respect for your circumstances,” she said.

“No one should be talking about your t**s,” the host said, adding “sorry” in an angry outburst that she shared on Instagram.

Calling the fashion choice “absurd”, she stated that people “should be talking about the inauguration” rather than focusing on Sanchez's wardrobe preference.

Meanwhile, a source told Page six that the criticism has not affected Sanchez as “she does what she wants.”
