Media Mogul Rupert Murdoch Engaged to Jerry Hall: A Surprising and Heart-Warming Love Story

Rupert Murdoch Engaged: Media Mogul Set to Marry Jerry Hall


Media tycoon Rupert Murdoch, the founder and chairman of News Corp, has announced his engagement to former supermodel Jerry Hall. The news has surprised and delighted many, as the couple's relationship had been kept largely out of the public eye until now.

The engagement was announced in the "Births, Marriages and Deaths" section of Murdoch's newspaper, The Times, on January 12th, 2016. The notice read: "Mr Rupert Murdoch, father of Prudence, Elisabeth, Lachlan, James, Grace and Chloe Murdoch, and Miss Jerry Hall, mother of Elizabeth, James, Georgia and Gabriel Jagger, are delighted to announce their engagement."

Murdoch, who is 84, and Hall, who is 59, reportedly began dating in the summer of 2015, after being introduced by mutual friends in Australia. They have since been spotted together at a number of high-profile events, including the Rugby World Cup final in London and the Golden Globe Awards in Beverly Hills.

The couple's engagement has come as a surprise to many, as Murdoch has been married three times before, most recently to Wendi Deng, from whom he divorced in 2013. Hall, on the other hand, was in a long-term relationship with Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger, with whom she has four children, but they never married.

Despite the age gap between them, Murdoch and Hall seem to be a good match. Both are successful in their respective fields and have a shared interest in the arts. Murdoch is known for his love of opera, while Hall is a keen art collector and has previously worked as an actress.

The news of the engagement has been greeted with congratulations and well-wishes from across the world. Many have commented on the happy news, noting that it is a rare and heart-warming sight to see an older couple find love and happiness together.

As the couple plan their future together, many are curious to see what lies ahead for them. With Murdoch's vast fortune and extensive media empire, and Hall's connections to the world of fashion and entertainment, they are sure to remain in the public eye for some time to come. But for now, the focus is on their happy news and the exciting future they have ahead of them.
