Media mogul Rupert Murdoch, 93, has tied the knot for the fifth time, marrying Elena Zhukova, 63, in an intimate ceremony that has drawn global interest. In a heartfelt statement, Murdoch expressed his conviction that he’s finally found true love: “I’m certain this is the true love I’ve been searching for. She doesn’t care about my wealth; we share so much in common.”
Murdoch and Zhukova reportedly bonded over shared values, worldviews, and a love for intellectual pursuits. The couple’s relationship has been described as genuine and deeply affectionate, with sources close to them emphasizing Zhukova’s independence and disinterest in Murdoch’s considerable fortune. Their union marks a hopeful new chapter for Murdoch, who has previously admitted to longing for a deeper, lasting connection.
Their marriage comes after Murdoch’s notable career as former chairman of Fox and News Corp, where he left an indelible mark on the media landscape. Fans and industry figures alike have wished the couple happiness and fulfillment, while also marveling at this new journey for Murdoch at his age, showcasing a belief in love at every stage of life.
