Rupert Murdoch and Jerry Hall Reportedly to Divorce
Media tycoon Rupert Murdoch and actress Jerry Hall are getting a divorce, US media report. BBC News 23 JUN 2022. ![]() Rupert Murdoch and Jerry Hall at their London wedding in 2016 The divorce would be a fourth for Mr Murdoch, 91. Ms Hall, 65, was previously married to Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger. Representatives for Mr Murdoch and Ms Hall, who wed at a mansion in central London in 2016, are yet to comment. Their split comes as a surprise to those close to the family, according to the New York Times. That newspaper and the Washington Post cited anonymous sources with knowledge of the separation. Mr Murdoch - whose News Corporation empire controls major outlets including Fox News and the Wall Street Journal in the US, and The Sun and The Times in the UK - was previously said to have been devoting more time to his new wife. At the time of his marriage, the billionaire announced on Twitter that he was "the luckiest AND happiest man in world", and would stop posting on the platform. In 2018, his elder son Lachlan was named as his successor. Mr Murdoch also sold most of 21st Century Fox to the Walt Disney Company. The couple had also been spotted together in public on several occasions. Last year, Ms Hall was seen "doting on" her partner at his 90th birthday party, according to the New York Times. The Texan model-turned-actress was previously in a long-term relationship with Mr Jagger, with whom she had four children. The pair tied the knot in a Hindu wedding ceremony in Bali, Indonesia, in 1990. The marriage was annulled less than a decade later in London's High Court of Justice. Mr Murdoch was previously married to Australian flight attendant Patricia Booker, from 1956 to 1967; Scottish-born journalist Anna Mann, from 1967 to 1999; and Chinese-born entrepreneur Wendi Deng, from 1999 to 2014. Across their marriages, the pair have 10 children. More Are the Murdochs too powerful?

Rupert Murdoch Steps Down as Fox and News Corp Chairman
Rupert Murdochs’ many critics blame him for coarsening British culture, exercising undue political influence and overseeing criminality in the form of phone hacking. BBC 22 SEP 2023 His advocates say that he gave a voice to the silent majority and locked horns with a crusty Establishment. What he did with newspapers in the UK, he did with cable television in the US. FOX news took the media landscape by storm and, some charge, fanned the tribal politics that helped Donald Trump come to power. Media mogul Rupert Murdoch says he is stepping down as chairman of Fox and News Corp, with his son Lachlan to head both companies. In a memo to employees, Murdoch said "the time is right" for him to take on "different roles". Murdoch, 92, launched Fox News in 1996. It is now the most watched TV news channel in the US. Murdoch said he will transition to the role of Chairman Emeritus of both firms in mid-November. "Our companies are in robust health, as am I. Our opportunities far exceed our commercial challenges," he wrote. "We have every reason to be optimistic about the coming years - I certainly am, and plan to be here to participate in them."

Media Mogul Rupert Murdoch Marries For FIFTH Time
The 93-year-old marries 67-year-old Elena Zhukova, a retired molecular biologist The Guardian 3 JUN 2024 ![]() The billionaire rightwing media mogul Rupert Murdoch has married for the fifth time, this time to retired molecular biologist Elena Zhukova. The 93-year-old married 67-year-old Zhukova on Sunday at his Moraga vineyard in California. Pictures released by the Sun, a Murdoch-owned British tabloid newspaper, showed the couple smiling next to each other as Murdoch wore a yellow tie while Zhukova wore a long-sleeve white dress. Murdoch’s fifth wedding comes a little over a year after reports emerged last April of him dating Zhukova four months after he ended his two-week long engagement to Ann Lesley Smith, a 67-year-old conservative radio host. Murdoch met Zhukova through a large family gathering hosted by his third ex-wife, Wendi Deng, to whom he was married for 14 years before their divorce in 2013. Her 42-year-old daughter, Dasha Zhukova, is a Russian-American art collector and philanthropist who was previously married to Roman Abramovich, a Russian oligarch and former owner of the Premier League football club Chelsea. Murdoch divorced his fourth wife, 67-year old actress and model Jerry Hall, in 2022. Hall was apparently waiting to meet Murdoch at their Oxfordshire home when she received an email from him which allegedly said, “Jerry, sadly I’ve decided to call an end to our marriage … We have certainly had some good times, but I have much to do. My New York lawyer will be contacting yours immediately.” Last September, following a seven-decade career of helming a media empire, Murdoch stepped down as chair of Fox and News Corp. Murdoch’s publicly traded and New York-based company News Corp owns hundreds of local, national and international digital news outlets including the Wall Street Journal, Fox News and Sky News Australia, as well as the book publisher HarperCollins. According to Forbes, Murdoch’s net worth is approximately $19.5bn. |

Rupert Murdoch in Secret Legal Battle With Children Over Media Empire
Billionaire media tycoon, 93, attempting to secure Lachlan Murdochs’ control rather than assets going to all children The Guardian 26 JUL 2024 ![]() Rupert Murdoch is in a secret legal battle pitching the ageing mogul and his heir apparent, Lachlan Murdoch, against three of his other children, according to documents seen by the New York Times. ![]() Murdoch, 93, is attempting to secure Lachlan Murdoch’s control of the family’s media empire by changing the terms of a family trust that would have also given younger brother James, sister Elisabeth and half-sister Prudence a say in how the company is run. Currently, the trust would hand control of the billionaire media tycoon’s sprawling empire to his four eldest children when he dies. But according to sealed court documents obtained by the New York Times, Murdoch is arguing that Lachlan should have sole control of the family’s investments in Fox News, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Post, the Australian and other assets, including the Sun and the Times in the UK. Lachlan Murdoch is seen as the most conservative of Murdoch’s children and his father is arguing that his political beliefs are essential to maintaining the value of the right-leaning media company. According to the Times, a Nevada probate commissioner found last month that the family’s irrevocable trust can be rewritten if Murdoch can prove he is acting in good faith to protect the value of the trust’s holdings. Reporter looked into Rupert Murdochs feud with his children. This is what he found |
