Related: About this forumJerry Hall divorcing Rupert Murdoch
https://www.nytimes.com/2022/06/22/business/media/rupert-murdoch-divorce-jerry-hall.html"The media moguls fourth divorce is unlikely to change the ownership structure of Mr. Murdochs empire, but it could reverberate through companies such as Fox News and The Wall Street Journal".
"Rupert Murdoch, the media titan, and Jerry Hall, the model and actress, are getting divorced, according to two people with knowledge of the decision. The people would speak only anonymously to discuss a personal matter."
"Mr. Murdochs divorce, his fourth, is unlikely to alter the ownership structure of businesses he holds stakes in, which include parent companies of Fox News and The Wall Street Journal. The Murdoch familys shares in the companies Mr. Murdoch founded reside in a strictly managed trust. Mr. Murdoch splits voting rights over that trust with his four oldest children Lachlan, Elisabeth, James and Prudence and has arranged them so that he can never be outvoted."
*Did she finally wake up and smelled the coffee?

(18,602 posts)1. The real question is why she ever married him.
It couldn't be for the money since she is already rich from her marriage to Jagger. Is she blind?

(18,602 posts)3. I just looked this up (not sure of accuracy)
Mick Jagger net worth $500 million
Rupert Murdoch $17 billion
Jerry Hall $20m prior to any Murdoch divorce settlement

you don't "need" any more money. I guess she is super greedy and has no self respect.

(8,343 posts)5. That blows my mind (that she is married Murdoch) - it confirms my suspicion
that humans are mostly fucked up.

The dude just doesn't have the manners to bow out at the appropriate time.
