Murdoch met Smith in September 2022 when she visited his Morago vineyard in Bel Air, Calif., just one month after he finalizes his divorce from supermodel Jerry Hall."I was very nervous. I dreaded falling in love — but I knew this would be my last. It better be. I'm happy," Murdoch told the New York Post, which he owns. "We’re both looking forward to spending the second half of our lives together," Murdoch added. Smith was previously married to country singer and TV executive Chester Smith, who died in 2008.
