$1.2 Billion
In 1967, Australian media tycoon Rupert Murdoch married Scottish journalist Anna Mann. Anna was a reporter for The Daily Telegraph in Sydney. She was his second wife. In 1999, 32 years later, the couple divorced. Elisabeth, Lachlan, and James Murdoch were their three children born during the marriage. Murdoch received a papal honor from Pope John Paul II just before their split: Knight Commander of the Order of Saint Gregory the Great. Given Murdoch’s net fortune of $18.1 billion and their astonishing $1.2 billion divorce deal, he will be OK.
