It has been announced that Rupert Murdoch and his wife are getting divorced. They started their marriage in 2016. However, what was shocking to many and made some laugh when Murdoch ended the marriage by e-mail in a letter to his wife.
"Jerry, unfortunately, I have decided to end our marriage. We have had wonderful times together, but I have many other things to do... My lawyer in New York will contact yours immediately," Murdoch wrote in an email. It did not take long for this couple to fall in love, and after only a few months of dating, they decided to get married.
This was a great ceremony, but the number of guests was not as high as could have been. Murdoch was in his fourth marriage at the time, and now that marriage has come to an end as well. It will be interesting to see if Murdoch will be able to find happiness once again in love.
Marriage
In 1956, he was married for the first time. It lasted eleven years. Within a short period of time, Murdoch met and married his second wife. It was that marriage that lasted the longest, 32 years to be exact. During the year 1999, the couple's marriage ended in divorce.
After the divorce, his wife still made a lot of money. Anna received $1.7 billion in the divorce settlement, of which $10 million was cash. Within 17 days of the divorce, Rupert Murdoch married Wendi Deng, a Chinese entrepreneur whom he had been in a marriage with until 2014 and with whom he had two children.
At the time of their marriage, Murdoch was 68 years old, while Wendi was only 30 years old. Rupert has a particularly interesting biography with many women behind him. Whether this marriage will be his last or whether Rupert still believes that he will find the right one remains to be seen.
