Wendi Deng & Rupert Murdoch Split

When they quit their loft apartment in New York's bohemian SoHo for the conservative Upper East Side in 2005, it was a wrench for Wendi Deng but a return home for Rupert Murdoch.

In a rare interview designed to help sell the SoHo property, the differences, perhaps caused by their 38-year age difference, were there to see. At 36, Deng loved the vibrant and arty atmosphere of lower Manhattan and talked of all the friends her daughters had made. "I love downtown. It is casual and my children have all kinds of friends here," she told the New York Times.

Murdoch, on the other hand, said he definitely had no interest in holding on the apartment and was keen to move to the $44m penthouse triplex once home to billionaire Laurance Rockefeller overlooking Central Park. The SoHo apartment sold for less than the asking price at $25m in 2005, more than tripling the $7.4m purchase price.

Murdoch lived in the same Upper East Side block when married to his second wife, Anna Torv, and had his eye on the trophy triplex for decades. "It was your American dream," said Deng, as Rupert explained how he had once told Rockefeller he would buy the Fifth Avenue apartment if he could ever afford it.

It is one of seven residences around the world that Murdoch is thought to own, which are now expected to feature in the settlement after the News Corporation founder filed for divorce on Thursday.

My Take​

Just got word that the cost of it all would be around $1.2 Billion dollars she will acquire once the divorce has been settled. As for the whole ordeal here...we've had threads regarding women who are generally accused of being gold diggers, and it continues as a heated debate. But in this case, I think it's much safer to make this claim with Wendi Deng, as she's a well-renowned home-wrecker and her history shows. Yes, it takes two to act on the impulses, but this particular person, who is very educated by the way, knows how to get what she wants and this was the whole plan for a long time. She's not there for love...she's simply there for money.

Now, Murdoch isn't off the hook either. He's simply not good at keeping a relationship alive and strong. After all, he's more about taking more and more of the media influence for himself and build his empire. It's money in the end, which is his only love.

murdoch looks like montgomery burns from the simpsons
 
Like Bernie Mac's character in Bad Santa says to Billy Bob Thornton and Tony Cox, "Half."

And Eddie Murphy's ex in his stand-up routine, "I want half."

I thought they were already finished after the pie attack. But, I didn't care and still don't. Wendi has that brilliant streak about her. You can see it in her eyes. I just hope I don't meet up with a woman like her. If I did, it's time for the prenuptual agreement if thing get too hot. I guess Murdoch thought that Wendi would always be a submissive Asian woman, always loyal to her husband. But, he learned a lesson. As it is written in The Merchant Of Venice by William Shakespeare, "All that glitters is not often gold..."
And he does look like Montgomery Burns. I guess Matt Groening created him after The Simpsons got picked up by the Fox network.
