According to Forbes, Murdoch controls a media empire that includes cable channel Fox News, the Times of London and the Wall Street Journal. In March 2019, he sold most of the Fox, FX and National Geographic Networks film studio and his stake in Star India to Disney for $71.3 billion.

Australian-born Murdoch’s net worth is estimated at $17.6 billion.

As for Hall, her net worth is estimated at $20 million.

According to Forbes, Hall had received between £11million and £18million from her ex-husband Mick Jagger as part of their divorce settlement.

According to the Mail Online, it’s unclear how much of the media mogul’s $17 billion fortune will go to Hall. However, attorney Mark Stephens of the Howard Kennedy law firm was quoted as saying that Murdoch may have signed a “rather generous” marriage contract. Hall may get a $279 million ranch the couple bought near Yellowstone Park in the US as part of the divorce deal. She could also purchase a $13.8 million Georgian property near Henley-on-Thames that the couple bought in Oxfordshire, England in 2019, which is only for restoration.
