Did Tony Blair SHAG Rupert Murdoch's wife Wendy Deng?

Tony Blair strongly denies affair with Wendi Deng as outrageous rumours sweep the internet over reason behind Murdoch divorce!
Rupert Murdoch filed for divorce in New York Supreme Court on Thursday.
Wendi Deng is Murdoch's third wife - they were together for 14 years.
Pair were married in 1999 after meeting in Hong Kong two years before.
Previous divorce was one of the most expensive in history at $1.7billion
The 82-year-old has two daughters with Wendi, Grace and Chloe.


Tony Blair was forced to deny internet rumours yesterday linking him with the divorce of Rupert Murdoch and Wendi Deng.
The internet was awash with unfounded suggestions that the former PM may have been romantically involved with 44-year-old Miss Deng, who is a close friend.
The speculation followed a Twitter claim by BBC business editor Robert Peston – who has close links with News Corporation insiders – that he had been ‘told that undisclosed reasons for Murdoch divorcing his third wife are jaw-dropping and hate myself for wanting to know what they are’.
The rumours are understood to have been emphatically rejected by Blair aides as untrue and also as highly defamatory.
A spokesman for Mr Blair, 60, told the Hollywood Reporter: ‘If you are asking if they are having an affair, the answer is no.’
The spokesman said the former PM would not be making a public comment on the divorce himself.
With no explanation forthcoming from the Murdoch camp, rumours started flying within hours of the news on Thursday that the 82-year-old media tycoon had filed for divorce in a New York court.
It is no secret that Miss Deng and Mr Blair are close friends. He is godfather to Grace, her oldest child.
