media mogul Rupert Murdoch filed divorce papers from his wife of 14 years, Wendi Deng, on Thursday, a spokesman confirmed to ABC News.
本週四一位發言人向ABC新聞的記者證實，國際傳媒大亨默多克向其妻子鄧文迪提出離婚，這段14年的婚姻走到盡頭。
Murdoch, 82, chairman and chief executive officer of News Corp., married Deng, 44, in 1999 in New York City.
現年82歲的默多克是新聞集團的主席以及執行長官，他和44歲的鄧文迪於1999年在紐約市結婚。
A spokesman for News Corp. said the court filing describes that their relationship had broken down irretrievably in the last six months.
新聞集團的一位發言人表示，在法院申請文書中，描述他們的感情在過去六個月裏已經到了無法挽回的地步。
They met in 1997 when she worked for Murdoch's Star Television in China. Murdoch and Deng have two young daughters, Grace and Chloe, who were born in 2001 and 2003, respectively. Murdoch had two previous marriages and has four adult children.
他們的第一次相遇是在1997年的中國，當時鄧文迪爲默多克集團下的星空傳媒工作。默多克和鄧文迪育有2個小女兒，2011年出生的Grace和2003年出生的Chloe。默多克之前有過兩段婚姻，有四個已經成年的孩子。
Murdoch's last divorce, to Anna Maria Torv in 1999, reportedly cost him $1.7 billion.
默多克上一次的離婚是和Anna Maria Torv，這場離婚發生在1999年，據報道離婚花了他近17億美元。
Murdoch kept his marriage to Deng out of headline news for the most part, but she garnered media attention in 2011 when she hit a man who tried to hit her husband with a pie as he was testifying in front of members of British parliament.
很長時間以來，默多克都將自己和鄧文迪的婚姻遠離媒體，但是在2011年有件事情讓鄧文迪吸引了許多目光。當時一男子當着英國全體議會的面試圖用紙碟砸向默多克時，她出手回擊了該男子。
At the time, Murdoch was apologizing in front of a special committee after phone hacking at his tabloid News of the World, which closed in July 2011.
當時，默多克正對自己的電話竊聽案向特殊委員會表示道歉，這個案件於2011年七月結案。
The Oxford-educated media mogul took over his father's newspaper business, News Limited, in his native Australia when he was 22, according to the BBC.
根據BBC新聞報道，牛津大學畢業的默多克在他22歲時於澳大利亞接手了父親的報紙事業新聞有限公司。
On June 28, News Corp. will begin the spin-off of its publishing division, which includes newspapers such as the Wall Street Journal, from its media and entertainment businesses, such as the Fox networks. The entertainment company will be called 21st Century Fox.
在6月28日，新聞集團會將其出版部門剝離，會將包括《華爾街日報》在內的新聞業務與福克斯有線電視網等媒體和娛樂業務分離，娛樂公司將正式更名爲21世紀福克斯。
