Rupert Murdoch's daughter Grace Deng stunned onlookers when she hit the red carpet for the prestigious post-Oscar Vanity Fair party on Sunday.

The 24-year-old, dressed in a dazzling black lace gown with a floor-sweeping hemline, posed for snaps alongside her mother, Wendi Deng, as she entered the A-list soirée in Los Angeles.

Grace piled on the glamour for the event, accessorising with a huge diamond necklace, pearl earrings and a delicate gold chain bracelet.

Wearing her black hair in a fashionable slicked-back style with a middle part, Grace carried a Khaite clutch worth over $4.5K and rocked a winged-eyed makeup look.

Meanwhile, Wendi, 57, also turned heads in a beaded floor-length evening gown with a feathered skirt and corset top.

The film producer and entrepreneur let her long black hair fall over her shoulders and accessorised with a diamond chain necklace, a matching bracelet and earrings and a chunky ruby statement ring.

For makeup, Wendi went for a lot of drama with smoky eyeliner and a soft eyeshadow.

Wendi was Rupert's third wife, having previously been married to Patricia Brooker from 1956 to 1967 and Anna Maria Torv from 1967 to 1999.

Rupert had first met and fallen for Wendi in 1997, in Hong Kong, two years before the divorce from Anna.

Two years later, after a whirlwind courtship that included the couple being spotted in a hotel gym together at 6am, sweating away on exercise bikes and giggling like teenagers, she became Wendi Deng Murdoch.

On June 25, 1999, they married on the deck of Murdoch's yacht Morning Glory in front of 80 guests, as it circled Manhattan.

With Wendi's encouragement, Rupert bought Laurance Rockefeller's Fifth Avenue triplex for $44 million – at the time, the most expensive purchase in New York history.

Wendi later focused on her new role as mother to her and Rupert's baby daughters Grace and Chloe, born in 2001 and 2003. 

Following his 14-year marriage to Wendi, Rupert tied the knot with model Jerry Hall in 2016, before their split in 2022.

Wendi was Rupert's third wife, and the pair share two daughters Grace and Chloe, 22

He is currently married to his fifth wife, Elena Zhukova.

Wendi has also hit headlines with her romantic life.

In 2014, a love note she had written to Tony Blair was published in Vanity Fair, in which she lusted after his 'good body' and 'piercing blue eyes'.

The former prime minister, who is the godfather to Grace, strongly denied allegations of an affair.

She is known for keeping former flames close, and remains good friends with Rupert, who she memorably defended in 2011 by lunging at a foam pie-throwing protester who attacked him.
