Rupert Murdoch, 92, will wed for a fifth time after proposing to Ann ...

Murdoch has six children from his previous marriages: Prudence MacLeod, 64, from first wife Patricia Booker; Elisabeth, 53, Lachlan, 50, and James, 49, from second wife Anna dePeyster (formerly Mann); and Grace, 21, and Chloe, 19, from third wife Wendi Deng. He shares no children with his fourth wife, Jerry Hall. 

Hall and Murdoch tied the knot in 2016, with a civil ceremony at Spencer House on 4 March, followed by a blessing at St Bride’s Church the following day, which was attended by famous faces including David Bailey, Bob Geldof, Sir Michael Caine, Bianca Jagger and Tracey Emin, along with the couple’s respective children from their previous relationships. It marked the fourth marriage for Murdoch, but the first for Hall (she had a Hindu wedding ceremony in Bali with her former partner, Mick Jagger, in 1990, but the ‘marriage’ was later declared invalid under both Indonesian and English law).
