Jerry and billionaire media mogul Rupert, 91, sensationally finalized their divorce on August 10 – just five weeks after their split became public – but claim they “remain good friends”.

Built in the 1920s, the house looks like a Tuscan farmhouse and has 11 bedrooms. Murdoch bought it in 2013 for $27 million.
Jerry enjoyed extensive visits to the vineyard during their courtship. She has embraced the lifestyle wholeheartedly and in 2019 held court at a lavish “backyard BBQ” to celebrate 30 years of winemaking.
She even told guests that she took a viticulture course because she loves the place.

Incidentally, her former partner, Rolling Stone Mick Jagger, was among the invited guests who enjoyed Mrs. Murdoch’s hospitality on the occasion.
Jerry listed Moraga as her address in her July 1 court filing and lived there with her daughter Lizzie and grandson Eugene over the winter – but Rupert Murdoch is now firmly resident.
Miss Hall, who has four children from a 23-year relationship with Rolling Stones singer Sir Mick Jagger, split from Mr Murdoch after he allegedly ended their marriage via email in June.
She filed for divorce in Los Angeles in July and papers were served to him as he boarded a plane in the UK after attending his granddaughter’s wedding.

Just before the divorce was finalized, Hall sparked a mystery when it was revealed that she had asked the Los Angeles Superior Court to set aside the divorce petition.
The complaint was filed by Hall’s California attorney, Ronald Brot, and was dated Tuesday, August 9. The document said the divorce was to be set aside unscathed, meaning it could not be revived.
But hours after news of the development broke, it emerged that Hall and Murdoch had settled their divorce settlement out of court.
A joint statement released last month confirmed the divorce, saying, “They remain good friends and wish each other the best in the future.”

Miss Hall was first spotted with Mr Murdoch in 2015 and the couple married on Fleet Street in London in 2016.
According to sources, the divorce settlement is said to have awarded her two houses and up to £250million. However, insiders who have married Mr Murdoch almost four times insist the figure is closer to £50million.
Filing for divorce in California is significant because it is a joint property state, meaning property acquired during the marriage is split 50/50 by default.

After getting married, they spent more than £250million on property in the UK and US.
In 2019, the couple bought a Georgian property near Henley-on-Thames in Oxfordshire for £11.25million. A year later it emerged they had bought out Great Tew Manor – a mover in the Cotswolds earmarked for a £30million restoration project.
Last December, the couple spent £228million on a 340,000-acre cattle ranch near Yellowstone Park in the US.
The family’s other possessions believed to be held in trust include a $50 million New York apartment, a ranch in California, the $30 million Los Angeles winery and a sheep – and cattle ranch in Murdoch’s native Australia. There is also an apartment in Mayfair when the media mogul is in London.

Ms. Hall made a fortune from her career as a model and has become the face of brands like Revlon Cosmetics. She has also had small roles in films such as Batman. Her split from Mick Jagger netted her an estimated settlement of up to £18million.
The union with Jerry Hall marked a fourth marriage for Mr Murdoch, who is worth an estimated £14billion.
It is not known whether Mr Murdoch and Ms Hall had signed a marriage contract.
