Keith Rupert Murdoch (hereafter: Murdoch) was born in 1931. At the age of 93, in June 2024, he entered into his fifth marriage. His partner is 67-year-old Elena Zhukova, a former molecular biologist. Originally from Russia, she conducted diabetes research at institutions such as the University of California.

Their relationship began through an introduction by Murdoch's third wife, Wendi Deng. The couple started dating in the summer of 2023 and, after nearly a year of courtship, they decided to tie the knot. The wedding was a simple ceremony surrounded by nature, held at Murdoch's winery in Bel Air, Los Angeles. Attendees included friends of Murdoch such as Robert Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots, and his wife Dana Blumberg, as well as Robert Thomson, CEO of News Corp, and his wife Wang Ping.

Murdoch has been married four times previously and has a total of six children. His first marriage was in 1956 to Patricia Booker from Australia. They had one daughter together, and their marriage lasted until 1967. That same year, Murdoch entered into his second marriage with Scottish journalist Anna Maria Torv. Their marriage spanned over 30 years until 1999, and they had three children.

In 1999, Murdoch married Wendi Deng, a businesswoman from China. During their marriage, which lasted until 2013, they had two daughters. In 2016, Murdoch married former supermodel Jerry Hall, who was also known as the ex-wife of Mick Jagger. They were together until 2022. At the beginning of 2023, Murdoch got engaged to Ann Lesley Smith, a former dental hygienist and radio host, but the engagement was called off a few weeks later. In 2024, Murdoch entered into his fifth marriage.

Outside of his private life, Murdoch is known as a "media mogul." In 1952, he inherited a newspaper company from his father and subsequently acquired various newspapers such as the Sydney Daily Mirror, News of the World, The Sun, and the New York Post, establishing his position in the media industry.

In 1979, he founded News Corporation, expanding his media empire by acquiring prestigious British newspapers like The Times and American film company 20th Century Fox, creating a vast media conglomerate. His first and second marriages coincided with his vigorous activities as a media mogul. His busy business life may have been supported by his marriage and family during these times.

In 2023, Rupert Murdoch shocked the world by resigning as chairman of both Fox Corporation and News Corporation. His eldest son, Lachlan Murdoch, took over as chairman while Rupert Murdoch assumed the role of honorary chairman. Upon stepping down, Murdoch addressed employees, stating, "I hope you will continue to work hard to make our world a better place." This marriage marks the beginning of a new chapter in his life after retiring from active leadership. Here's to a new life journey for Rupert Murdoch and Elena Zhukova, wishing them a fulfilling and prosperous life ahead.
