"The media mogul’s fourth divorce is unlikely to change the ownership structure of Mr. Murdoch’s 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. Murdoch’s 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 family’s 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?

1. The real question is why she ever married him.

2. I know!

It couldn't be for the money since she is already rich from her marriage to Jagger. Is she blind?

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

4. Once you have millions

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

5. That blows my mind (that she is married Murdoch) - it confirms my suspicion

that humans are mostly fucked up.

6. She was probably counting on him to kick the bucket five years ago.

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