He recently got engaged to 66-year-old Ann Lesley Smith - just months after his divorce with his fourth wife, Jerry Hall, was finalised.
The 92-year-old joked it “better be” his last engagement, referencing being wed four times previously.
His most recent divorce from Jerry Hall was finalised in August last year, following a six-year marriage.
Mr Murdoch, who said he is “one-fourth Irish”, proposed to Ann Lesley Smith during St Patrick’s Day festivities in New York with an Asscher-cut diamond solitaire engagement ring that he “personally selected”.
Announcing the engagement in the New York Post, which is owned by Mr Murdoch’s News Corporation, he said the couple met in September 2022 at his vineyard Moraga in Bel Air, California.
Mr Murdoch, 92, said: “I was very nervous. I dreaded falling in love – but I knew this would be my last. It better be. I’m happy.
“She and her husband also owned a vineyard and had been in the wine business. Last year when there was 200 people at my vineyard, I met her and we talked a bit. Two weeks later I called her.”
