American billionaire TV mogul Rupert Murdoch free again: he divorced his wife, 65-year-old Jerry Hall.
It was the fourth and shortest marriage of a businessman: they lived together for 6 years. Before Murdoch, for more than two decades, the former model lived without marriage with musician Mick Jagger.
Murdoch’s first wife was an Australian flight attendant, his second was a Scottish journalist, and his third was a Yale graduate from China. It was this marriage that brought him the most problems: the secret services suspected a Chinese woman of having links with the intelligence of the PRC.
Murdoc is a dollar billionaire with an estimated net worth of $17 billion, making him one of the 100 richest people in the world.
He was born in Australia, and former Greenland Prime Minister Tony Abbott said that Murdoch “may have had a greater impact on the world at large than any other living Australian”.
Newspapers and TV channels owned by the billionaire are often accused of bias; they are also called misleading in order to support his business and other interests.
