The wedding, which was captured in photographs by Mail Online, saw notable guests such as Robert Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots. The ceremony marks the fifth marriage for 93-year-old Murdoch and the sixth engagement of his well-documented romantic history, reported Business Insider.

Murdoch and 67-year-old Zhukova announced their engagement this past March, following the start of their relationship in the summer of the previous year. This marriage comes after Murdoch’s brief engagement to Ann Lesley Smith in March 2023, which ended by April.

Renowned for establishing conservative media outlets such as News Corp. and Fox News, Murdoch retired from his executive roles at both companies in September 2023. His son, Lachlan Murdoch, has since taken over the leadership positions.
