"We're both looking forward to spending the second half of our lives together," added the billionaire.

​​Murdoch — whose empire includes Fox News, The Wall Street Journal and a string of other media assets around the world — met Smith in September 2022, just one month after he finalized his last divorce.

"Last year when there was 200 people at my vineyard, I met her and we talked a bit," he told The New York Post. "Two weeks later I called her."

Smith, who was previously married to late country singer and executive Chester Smith, said that "friends are happy for me."

"I'm a widow 14 years. Like Rupert, my husband was a businessman," she told the outlet. "In perspective, it's not my first rodeo. Getting near 70 means being in the last half. I waited for the right time."

Smith had one previous marriage before tying the knot with her former husband, according to the Modesto Bee.
