The Murdoch family have long been a topic of interest, and the obsession around one of the world’s wealthiest media empire lineages was only further fuelled after the release of HBO’s Succession, which is believed to have taken inspiration from billionaire Rupert Murdoch and his dynasty.

Most recently, Murdoch’s granddaughter Charlotte Freud has been in the headlines after sharing that her London flat was burgled, according to Australian media.

She shared on Instagram: “To whoever robbed my apartment, was it really necessary to eat a chocolate from my advent calendar?”

“That feels really disrespectful. Like steal my s*** and my Christmas spirit,” she added.

Here’s everything you need to know about the 23-year-old – who had a “makeover” this year.

“My last name has always been something I can’t avoid,” she told British media in 2021, “It’s always been a point of interest, even when I was a kid.” She now prefers to go by “Tiarlie”.

She grew up between London and Oxfordshire

In her 2021 interview, she described herself as “definitely the trouble child”, adding, “I don’t know why I became the problem child. I just really needed for them to notice me, but I didn’t really know in what sense I wanted that”.

She got married to Luke Storey last year

Tiarlie has been writing music since she was 15 years old. According to her Spotify profile, the self-taught musician has “a knack for rhetorical, direct lyricism and a taste for elevated, gravitated pop” and takes inspiration from artists like Lana Del Rey and Lorde.

She had a “stunning makeover”

 

Freud was nearly unrecognisable when she resurfaced on social media with a new look that included a chic hairstyle and a more “svelte” frame, per Australian media. Her lips also appear plumper and her face more chiselled.

Her gothic fashion though remains unchanged.

Hollywood actor Woody Harrelson, reportedly a good friend of Freud’s father, was seen giving her a wedding night trim, as seen in a video posted by the then-bride-to-be. In the clip, the Zombieland actor is seen singing along to Queen’s 1984 hit “I Want to Break Free”.
