Rupert Murdoch, Elena Zhukova marry at Bel Air winery Moraga

Rupert Murdoch and Elena Zhukova were married Saturday night at Murdoch’s Moraga winery in Bel Air, California.

Murdoch, chairman emeritus of Fox and News, and Zhukova, a molecular biologist, became engaged earlier this year.

The photos show the happy couple smiling at their Los Angeles mansion, with the bride in a chic white dress and the groom in a sharp dark suit.

We previously reported that the pair attended the annual Breakthrough Prize ceremony together in April, known as the “Oscars of science,” where awards are presented in the categories of life sciences, physics and mathematics at the Academy Museum in Los Angeles.

Moraga is located in the Santa Monica Mountains and was once the home and ranch of Victor Fleming, director of the classic films The Wizard of Oz and Gone with the Wind.

It was transformed into a prized vineyard by Tom and Ruth Jones in the 1980s, and in 2013 became Murdoch’s Los Angeles home and winery.

Murdoch’s News Corp. owns the Washington Post as well as US media giants Fox News and The Wall Street Journal. He stepped down as chairman in November and was succeeded by his son Lachlan Murdoch.
