MEDIA MOGUL RUPERT MURDOCH MARRIES FOR THE FIFTH TIME AT 93

Mon 03 June 2024:

Rupert Murdoch, the 93-year-old right-wing media tycoon, has married for the fifth time, tying the knot with 67-year-old retired molecular biologist Elena Zhukova.

The ceremony took place at Murdoch’s vineyard in Bel-Air, California, as reported by the Sun, which Murdoch owns. Zhukova is the mother of Dasha Zhukova, a Russian American art collector and former wife of oligarch Roman Abramovich.

Murdoch, who recently stepped down as chairman of Fox Corporation and News Corp, continues to hold an “active role” as chairman emeritus of both companies.

The billionaire, worth $9.77 billion, began dating Zhukova last summer, and they announced their engagement in March. Previously, Murdoch was married to former supermodel Jerry Hall until their divorce in 2022.

His brief engagement to Ann Lesley Smith was called off in March 2023.
