"I dreaded falling in love, but I knew this would be my last. It better be. I’m happy. We’re both looking forward to spending the second half of our lives together."
The pair are set to marry in the summer. The nuptials will mark the fifth time that the media titan has wed.
Murdoch, whose business empire includes the controversial US network Fox News and The Sun newspaper in the UK has six children from his first three marriages.

His two youngest children, Grace and Chloe, are with his third wife Wendi Deng.
His new fiance Smith told the New York Post: “I’m a widow of 14 years. Like Rupert, my husband was a businessman.
"Worked for local papers, developed radio and TV stations and helped promote Univision. So I speak Rupert’s language. We share the same beliefs.”
