On Wednesday I did a post “The Wizened of Oz Does a Runner!!!” About 92-year-old “Rupe’s” two week engagement to Anne Lesley Smith, the 66-year old Police Chaplain. I suggested that the kids may have said... “Grow up Dad. Quit the Viagra. Act your age and hurry up and die!” After all, Inheritance is a messy business. But it makes for a good TV series. Anyway, The Guardian has a piece today... “Murdoch’s change of heart: Was marriage called off over a religious or succession issue?” It suggests that apart from the fact that the Bride-To-Be was a religious freak who couldn’t stop quoting the Bible, the main reason for the ultra-rapid demolition of the engagement was the kids objection to it. However, as I query in my original post... The big question is does she get to keep the two and a half carat diamond ring?
Only God knows.
