On what planet is it ageist to say a 91 year old has a saggy ass? Deal with it- should you be fortunate enough to make it to 91, your ass will be saggy.
maybe he wants another child, like Bernie?

I thought she was elated to cock a snook at Jagger, who conned her with a non-legal “form of marriage”, shagged around for 25 years, and then paid her a derisory settlement with conditions on her occupancy of the family home. It is said that Jagger hates Murdoch with an absolute passion.
Now Hall will be a bona fide divorcee with a fat settlement. Finally.

It must be bad though if she couldn’t wait until he popped his clogs!

RevoltingHumanHead · 23/06/2022 09:49

Maybe she's fallen in love with the poolboy.

I know, right?! The size of that house they'd never have to see each other unless they wanted to!

Lifeisamystery · 23/06/2022 09:57

I didn't even know they were married until about 3 minutes ago 😳🤮

Nice ageist comment there. Hate to break it to you, but that's what we will all look like in our 80's and 90's.

In the case of Rupert Murdoch any insult is better than he deserves. The man is an absolute piece of shit

She might be better off hanging on for a year or 2 in case he croaks. Then she'll be an extremely wealthy widow 😉

She is wealthy in her own right

Pedallleur · 23/06/2022 10:05

Surprised but not IYKWIM. Prob be a chunk of money and a house in it for her but suspect there will have been a deal beforehand and his will would have numerous clauses and directions re the businesses and the estate. Thought she was a good choice at the time. She had the non marriage with Jagger but got prpoerly married to Murdoch and she would have had the hostess thing down to a T. Glamorous, knows all the right people etc

And that's being kind.

The harm Murdoch's done globally cannot be overstated.

ImAvingOops · 23/06/2022 10:29

Rupert Murdoch was an improvement on Mick Jagger!
Jagger really screwed her over, so I'm glad she found someone who actually wanted to commit to her legally and who will hopefully see her right for financial support going forward. I like Jerry Hall and felt very sorry for her after having 4 kids with that sleazy fucker Jagger!

DenholmElliot1 · 23/06/2022 10:40

I'm not at all convinced that Jerry was particularly wealthy in her own right . Modelling pays well but that was all in her past

Mrsjayy · 23/06/2022 10:44

I totally forgot Jerry Hall was married to Rupert Murdoch so the divorce news surprised me.

the fact she did Strictly tells me she can't have been all that rich. Rich by my standards no doubt. But not rich by rich people's standards.

Mrsjayy · 23/06/2022 10:52

Lots of Rich people do strictly.

She got a few quid from her divorce from Mick Jagger, had her own career and comes from a wealthy Texan oil family and maybe she doesnt want to be mega rich.

Is Cherie Blair still on the scene?

yeah rich, but not super rich.

she hasn't felt the need to do reality tv since marrying.

LizBennet · 23/06/2022 11:19

It's him who has filed isn't it? Hope she gets more than Jagger the tight arse gave her

Certainly Texan but not a wealthy family I don't think. She has always struck me as quite savvy so not sure how/why she let Jagger do her over financially.

balalake · 23/06/2022 11:54

There is death watch game which I think is in very poor taste. Maybe a celebrity divorce watch one would be less tasteless. Carrie Johnson recovering from her low self-esteem and divorcing the misogynistic serial liar next perhaps?

ChagSameachDoreen · 23/06/2022 08:08

Not me! I thought he was married to that Chinese lassie.

No. there was a huge falling out with the family and she had to go. Cant remember the details.

Jagger treated her terribly. I was pleased when she married Murdoch because I thought mean Mick would have been raging that she had access to more wealth than he could dream of ... and now she will, presumably, get some kind of divorce settlement.

of course she wants to be rich. lived in that Jagger world where it was access all areas. She was the supermodel who married a Rolling Stone (Bryan ferry before that). Tying the knot with Murdoch meant that all the doors were still open plus she got in with business people and politicians. Jagger dreams of that kind of access. Anyway - big chunk of cash and the house in Henley would prob do v.nicely. they bought this retreat

No doubt an apartment in NY would be nice as well
