Washington: Ninety-two-year-old former Fox News Chairman Rupert Murdoch is engaged to 66-year-old retired scientist Elena Zhukova, Yahoo News reported.
 
A Murdoch spokesperson confirmed the engagement, which is his sixth, the report said on Thursday.

Australian-born Murdoch was rumoured to be dating Zhukova soon after his engagement to ex-police chaplain Ann Lesley Smith was abruptly called off in April 2023, just two weeks after they announced their wedding.

The wedding between Murdoch and Zhukova is planned for June at the former's California estate and vineyard, Moraga, the report added.

Zhukova's daughter had been married to Russian billionaire businessman Roman Abramovich.

Murdoch has been married four times before and has six children in total.

Anna Mann

Murdoch married Scottish-born journalist Anna Mann in 1967. Torv and Murdoch separated in 1999 after 32 years of marriage. Elisabeth, Lachlan and James are their three kids.

Wendi Deng
