Paparazzi snapped 93-year-old billionaire Rupert Murdoch while he was on vacation with his Russian wife. The media mogul settled comfortably into a lounge chair and soon fell asleep, unaware that photographers were tirelessly watching the couple.

“93-year-old Murdoch is relaxing with his 67-year-old wife—she’s bored while he’s falling asleep for the tenth time!” joked internet users. “With a net worth of $19 billion, a little patience isn’t such a high price to pay,” added another commenter ironically.

“A husband like that is simply a dream: he sleeps peacefully and has an impressive bank account,” wrote one user. Others wondered, “What did she expect when she married a 93-year-old grandpa?”—or added, “She’s no young girl herself. What more do they need?”

“She doesn’t seem particularly unhappy. He’s napping, and she’s quietly enjoying the view without any unnecessary chatter,” noted another commenter. “Many people only dream of a marriage like this, so stop being jealous,” someone teased in the comments.


One user summed it up particularly aptly: “I’d gladly be sitting under a palm tree right now, knowing that my finances are secure for many years to come.” Meanwhile, the vacation photos of Murdoch and his wife continue to be actively discussed online, and amusing reactions keep pouring in.
