Rupert Murdoch’s ‘wild child’ granddaughter reveals why she fled London and now lives in LA

by

Rupert Murdoch’s granddaughter, often referred to as a ‘wild child,’ publicly shared her motivations for relocating from London to Los Angeles back in 2024.

Charlotte Freud, aged 25, openly discussed the reasons for her move to America during a Q&A session on Instagram. When prompted about her decision, she spoke candidly without hesitation.

From the depths of my heart, I express my affection for everyone residing in London. You are all dear to me, but I must admit, there are aspects about London that I find challenging.

In that place, my sole activity is drinking. The atmosphere is consistently gloomy, with everyone seeming unhappy. The temperature either soars or plummets, making it uncomfortable. There’s an inexplicable costliness to everything. It lacks aesthetic charm.

She noted that the actual experience of London didn’t match its grand reputation, and those who cherish it likely reside in more affluent districts.

She commented that many people believe London will be a stunning, enchanting destination. However, in her opinion, it isn’t. Instead, those who adore London seem to reside in Surrey.

Charlotte then revealed why she preferred life on the west coast of America.

As a fervent admirer might exclaim, “Boy, am I blessed to be an American citizen! The allure of the sun-soaked skies had me hooked, and there was no denying my heart’s desire – LA was where I belonged! I’m just here, basking under the golden California sun.

Charlotte, known for her spirited disposition, is the offspring of public relations maven Matthew Freud and media tycoon Elisabeth Murdoch. She’s earned the label of a free spirit or rebel, stemming from her candid demeanor.

For several months now, she’s been seeing American actor Isaac Presley, and recently showcased him in a western-style photo shoot that was publicly debuted. (Paraphrased for natural and easy to read language)

In May, she informed her fans that she had been added to an airport security list due to a law-breaking incident that occurred during her flight.

She disclosed that she was placed under observation for a period of five years following her being found vaping aboard a Virgin Atlantic aircraft.

Murdoch’s granddaughter, in a social media post, revealed a photo of herself giving a peace sign while recounting an incident involving a plane hiccup.

Following an enjoyable month of traveling, she discovers that her past action of vaping during a flight with Virgin Airlines two years back has placed her on a suspected terrorism list,” she revealed.

At every checkpoint over the next five years, passengers on Virgin flights can expect a reprimand related to this incident.”

Charlotte continued by explaining that she had chosen to avoid flying with the specific airline, and later revealed that her past behavior on planes had been much more severe.

Clearly, we’ve decided not to use Virgin’s services for the next three years. However, considering some of Young Char’s past flight mishaps, I guess we can’t help but feel fortunate that they’re only giving me trouble over Juul issues.” She concluded.

Juul is a popular brand of nicotine vape in the USA.

Next, she posted a snapshot of her vaping device while INXS’s song “Never Tear Us Apart” played in the surroundings.
