Jerry Hall ‘devastated’: Rupert Murdoch reportedly ended marriage in Mail

Jerry Hall
“Devastated”! Rupert Murdoch reportedly dumped her in an email

There was public speculation about the marriage of media mogul Rupert Murdoch, 91, and his wife Jerry Hall, 66, in mid-June. Now the 66-year-old has officially filed for divorce in a California court. This is reported by the “People” magazine, which has the relevant court documents.

Jerry Hall + Rupert Murdoch: She wants alimony and wants to pay for the divorce costs

Hall gave insurmountable differences as the reason for the divorce. In addition, she asks her estranged husband for alimony and the assumption of the legal fees. The full extent of “all of Murdoch’s assets and liabilities” could not be estimated at this point in time. As soon as this is certain, she wants to adjust the demands again, “People” quotes from the documents.

Murdoch only wants contact through his lawyers

However, as “Daily Mail” reports, the marriage did not come from the 66-year-old. Hall was expecting her husband in Great Britain when she received an email in which Murdoch allegedly declared the marriage over. In the message, he instructed her to only communicate with him through his lawyers. A shock for the model, who is said to have confided in a friend: “I still love him, I’m devastated.”

But apparently there have been tensions for a long time. During the corona pandemic, differences are said to have arisen between Hall and Murdoch’s children. She was apparently resented for having isolated her husband for fear of infection. Now she believes this measure led her husband’s family to believe that she wanted to isolate him from them.

The media mogul’s children are said to have distrusted Hall

“They thought Jerry was keeping them away from him,” said a friend of the model. “She blames the kids for damaging the marriage. They had a lot to say about it and a role in his private life, which she found a nasty surprise. Apparently, they didn’t trust her.” The source said there were talks between Hall and the Murdoch family about their financial situation earlier this year. The focus was on her legacy after her husband’s death. Some relatives are said to have been anxious that no further arrangements should be made for Hall at this time. She signed a marriage contract with her husband, whose media empire includes the newspapers The Sun and The Times as well as Fox News in the United States.

Now the American is in front of a pile of broken glass. “Jerry is really devastated by what has happened and insists it all came like a bolt from the blue. They had been planning to spend the summer in London together when this message broke, instructing them was only to contact him through lawyers.”

The fourth divorce for Rupert Murdoch

Murdoch and Hall went public with their relationship in October 2015 and married in London in March 2016. The media mogul has previously been married three times: His first marriage was to Patricia Booker, who has a daughter Prudence, 64, from 1956 to 1967. Murdoch’s second wife was writer Anna Murdoch Mann, 78. The US publisher has three children with her, Elisabeth, 53, Lachlan, 50, and James, 49. From 1999 to 2013, the media mogul was finally married to entrepreneur Wendi Deng, 53 . The marriage has two other children, Grace, 21, and Chloe, 19. Dissolving his marriage to Hall would be his fourth divorce.

Jerry Hall was in a long-term relationship with Mick Jagger

However, the actress had a long-term relationship with The Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger, 78, the two had been together for 22 years. Hall and Jagger tied the knot in a Hindu ceremony in Bali in 1990, but it was not legally binding. The model has four children with the musician: Gabriel, 24, Georgia, 30, James, 36, and Elizabeth, 38.
