Media Mogul Rupert Murdoch Marries For Fifth Time At Age Of 93

Rupert Murdoch, the media mogul who retired from the boards of Fox and News Corporation last year, tied the knot for the fifth time on Saturday with Elena Zhukova at his Moraga vineyard estate in Bel Air, Los Angeles, The New York Times (NYT) reported.

Under a clear sky, Murdoch, 93, and Zhukova, 67, exchanged vows in an outdoor ceremony. Zhukova, carrying a bouquet of white flowers, wore a stunning ankle-length, off-the-shoulder white dress reportedly designed by Emilia Wickstead, while Murdoch opted for a dark suit paired with sneakers. Notable guests included Robert K Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots, and Robert Thomson, CEO of News Corp.

The couple's relationship began through Murdoch's third wife, Wendi Deng, as reported by The Daily Mail last summer. Zhukova, a retired molecular biologist who immigrated to the US from Moscow in 1991, was previously married to billionaire energy investor Alexander Zhukov, according to NYT.
