Left to right: Tony Blair, Rupert Murdoch and Wendi Deng. Click to enlarge
Though Blair spent most of his time jetting around Africa and the Middle East after leaving office, he made sure he kept up with Rupert Murdoch, the billionaire owner of the News Corporation media group.
In 2011, the two men met in America — not long after Murdoch took the decision to close the News of the World. Afterwards, Blair teamed up with the tycoon’s wife, Wendi Deng, to make business trips to her native China. His overtures to the Chinese — to become an adviser to one of the country’s sovereign wealth funds — fell on stony ground. But he grew close to Deng.
The following year, he visited the attractive 43-year-old twice at her husband’s London home. Then, that August, he was spotted alone with her at a Mayfair club.
Deng was clearly smitten. In an email to herself around that time, she wrote of Blair’s loyal aide, Catherine Rimmer: ‘Katherine [sic] Rimmer does not like me because she does not want Tony gets [sic] in trouble with me.’
Next, Blair few out to see Deng at Murdoch’s 1,000-acre home near Carmel in California.
She told her husband nothing about Blair’s visit; instead she said that she was staying at the ranch with a girlfriend.
In fact, her friend had already left when the former Prime Minister arrived, and Deng had also told some of her staff to make themselves scarce — while Blair’s protection officers were quartered in a nearby hotel.
On June 11, 2013, Murdoch and his wife hosted a dinner for a group of friends and visitors from London.
Unknown to his guests, and especially to his wife, he had already decided to file for a divorce the following day.
It was not a spur of the moment decision. Murdoch had been growing weary of his wife’s sharp tongue, her frequent absence at parties and on foreign trips, and the endless visits of her Chinese friends.
Her habit of speaking Chinese in his presence was particularly irksome. Their 14-year marriage, he decided, had run its course.
But there was another reason he’d had enough. While the Metropolitan Police were investigating phone-hacking practices at the News of the World, Murdoch’s team had sifted through millions of emails on his company computers.
During the course of this, emails from Deng were uncovered that suggested a close relationship with a tennis coach in Carmel, another with the founder of Google, Eric Schmidt — and a third with Tony Blair. It was left to one of Murdoch’s sons to show the messages to the ageing tycoon.
They made for unedifying reading. In one memo to herself, Deng had written: ‘Oh s***, oh s***. Whatever why I’m so so missing Tony. Because he is so charming and his clothes are so good.
‘He has such a good body and he had his really, really good legs Butt [sic] . . . and he is slim tall and good skin. Pierce blue eyes which I love. Love his eyes. Also I love his power on the stage . . . and what else what else what else . . .’
Other messages suggested that Blair had met Deng in New York, London and Beijing.
According to Murdoch, he then quizzed his servants in Carmel and learned that Blair had stayed overnight on April 27, 2013. Yet Blair had met him the following day in Los Angeles — to ask for money for his Faith Foundation — and hadn’t mentioned staying at the ranch or seeing Deng.
Murdoch’s staff told him the rest: during their meals, the couple had been seen feeding each other, and Blair had also been spotted joining Deng in her bedroom and closing the door.
Hours after the divorce was announced, Blair telephoned Murdoch, insisting he was innocent. But, after a brief conversation, the tycoon refused to take any more of his calls.
Blair nevertheless spoke regularly with Deng on the phone. With Cherie’s support, both he and Deng publicly denied there had ever been an affair. No one could definitively prove that there had — but Murdoch ridiculed Blair’s denials. And there can be no doubt that the former PM was damaged by global interest in the scandal.
For six years, he had cultivated an image as a respected globe-trotting statesman, but this business with Deng shocked some of his associates. Particularly appalled was an American billionaire, Tim Collins, who was not only on the board of Blair’s Faith Foundation but had also given it considerable sums of money.
‘The Wendi Murdoch affair put me off,’ he recalled. ‘The real man was revealed. He’s incapable of self-criticism. I felt so naïve.’
Collins duly withdrew his support from the Foundation. The row also fuelled the end of Blair’s role as Middle East peace envoy.

What about Blairs reported homosexual meet up in public toilets….BOTH stories could be fiction…but it’s all rather irrelevant….
What IS true is the fact he has amassed a purported +/- $100,000,000 US ….and has never owned a business which has produced anything tangible….like the Clinton’s he is utterly corrupt AND is still invited by the media to comment….DESPITE the fact he has the unique distinction of being hated by right and left …
Hypothetically IF Britains political situation became unstable he would face the very real possibility of being assassinated.
And you can imagine the relatives of Dr David Kelly would be rather pleased about it.Suicide??..NO …If investigated properly it wouldn’t be long before Blairs name came up.
How ANYONE could be fooled by such an obvious FRAUD as Phony Tony will FOREVER remain a mystery to me.
I knew from DAY 1 that Tony Scumbag was a scumbag… so how come Rupert got duped & cucked? Guess Murdoch ain’t as smart as he makes out… HAHAHAHA!!!
Well, he is responsible for the ‘war of terror’ on islamic lands, which has lead to the deaths of millions of innocents, tens of millions of refugees, the creation of ISIS, the destruction of Iraq & Libya, mass immigration into the west, continuing destruction of the west…… So, hobnobbing with Murdoch’s wife is nothing.
Seriously, she married him only for the fat divorce settlement in the high millions. These stupid old men with all their millions do nothing but rent exceptionally expensive escorts when they marry. You can’t ‘buy’ love, but you can buy sex and the lie your very beautiful, younger wife loves you. It’s just laughable, quite frankly that these twits think that the next wife will be different. Lol
I liked the bit about Blair cultivating an image of a respected globetrotting statesman,what planet is this writer from? Blair was clearly her gay friend and someone to go online shopping with. Its not strictly true that Blair hasn’t got a business either. What about his Cottaging Industry?
The NSA whistleblower David Murphy-Fawkes said that Blair was not trusted by the USA and Blairs conversations were listened in on 24=7 even the bedroom arguments about Blair sleeping with Cliff Richard. Cherie did not know Blair was a teenage rent boy and she was very upset
Blair was seen as a Pinnochio figure by the USA, a lightweight figure who would not know the truth if it hit him in the face.
WE know from other sources closer to home that both Blair and Rupert Murdoch
were funded run and used by Rothschild, who was afraid he may get caught in the fall out in the row over Toerag Tony sleeping with Murdochs wife, Rothschild had to throw verbal cold water over both of them, to calm things down. Remember Blair fulfliled his role to Rothschild and the jews and he has his 30 pieces of silver, he is no more use to Rothschild, as Moshe solomons said ” you upset Rothschild and you pay with your life”
