It has been reported that billionaire Rupert Murdoch and his wife Jerry Hall are to divorce.

Jerry Hall is the former partner of Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger. They have four children together. 

The couple have announced their split, having tied the knot in 2016. Neither spouse has commented on the matter. 

91 year old Murdoch is set to get divorced for the fourth time, having been previously married to entepreneur Wendi Deng who he divorced in 2014, after 14 years of marriage. The former couple share one daughter.

Murdoch and his second wife Ann Murdoch Mann divorced in 1999, they have three children together. 

The media tycoon parted ways from his first wife Patricia Booker in 1966. They had one daughter together. 

However, this latest separation is unlikely to impact the ownership structure of businesses that Rupert Murdoch has a stake in. Such stakes include The Wall Street Journal, Fox News, The Times of London, New York Post, and British tabloid The Sun. 

Forbes magazine has also said that Rupert Murdoch is reportedly worth an estimated $17.7 billion.
