Rupert Murdoch to marry again at 92 - Love has No Age Limit

 Rupert Murdoch, is a name that is synonymous with media empire. As the executive chairman of News Corp, a global media company that includes newspapers, magazines, and television networks, Murdoch has been a major player in the industry for decades. However, in recent times, he has been making headlines for his personal life as much as his business dealings.

The media mogul, who is 92 years old, has been married four times before and is set to marry again. His upcoming marriage to Ann Lesley Smith, a former police chaplain, has generated much media interest, with many speculating about the impact it could have on his business interests.

Smith, who is reportedly in her late 60s, has a background in journalism and has worked as a chaplain for the police force. She reportedly met Murdoch while she was providing spiritual guidance to him during the coronavirus pandemic, and the couple quickly developed a close relationship.

Murdoch's previous marriages have been the subject of much media scrutiny. His first marriage was to Patricia Booker, an Australian flight attendant, in 1956. The couple had one child together before they divorced in 1967. He then married Anna Torv, a Scottish journalist, in 1967, and the couple had three children before they divorced in 1999.

Murdoch's third marriage was to Wendi Deng, a Chinese-born businesswoman, in 1999. The couple had two children together, and their relationship was the subject of much media attention due to the significant age difference between the two. They divorced in 2013, following reports of Deng's close relationship with a British politician.

Murdoch's fourth marriage was to Jerry Hall, a former model and actress, in 2016. The couple's six-year marriage was seen as something of an unlikely union, given their significant age difference. However, their relationship appeared to be going strong until they announced their split in August 2021.

Despite his previous failed marriages, Murdoch appears to be optimistic about his upcoming nuptials with Smith. In a statement released by News Corp, he said, "I'm thrilled to be marrying Ann and excited to have her as a part of our family."

However, some have speculated that Murdoch's marriage to Smith could have an impact on his business interests, given her background in journalism. News Corp owns several major publications, including The Wall Street Journal, The Times, and The Sun, and some have suggested that Smith's influence could change the editorial direction of these publications.

Others have noted, however, that Murdoch has a long history of separating his personal life from his business dealings. While his publications may reflect his personal views to some extent, they are ultimately driven by market forces and the desire to attract readers and advertisers.

Moreover, Smith's background in journalism may not necessarily translate into a desire to shape editorial content. As a former police chaplain, she may be more interested in issues related to spirituality and social justice than in the day-to-day workings of a newsroom.

Regardless of the speculation, Murdoch's upcoming marriage to Smith is a reminder that love can be found at any age. While some may question the wisdom of a 92-year-old man getting married again, Murdoch seems to be following his heart and is willing to take the leap once more.
