John Singleton, 82, on to his seventh wife after ditching his carer ex

Publish date: 2024-05-18

Sydney millionaire John Singleton has tied the knot for the seventh time aged 82 – just months after splitting from his “live-in carer” ex-wife.

The entrepreneur and investor, known as “Singo”, married Sarah Warry, a woman almost half his age when the pair eloped in July.

Ms Warry, 44, said she fell for his “wicked sense of humour” and added their relationship is “proof you can fall in love with someone over great conversation”.

“He is terrific on the text,” the mother of two told The Daily Telegraph.

“We were texting back and forth all about what I do and what he does and I really got to know him. Then we started talking, he’s such a great conversationalist, he really listens.”

Singleton, who has been married previously to several high-profile women including former Miss World Belinda Green, split from his previous wife Kim Dennis, 44, earlier this year – but said he’s “never been happier”.

“It’s [happiness] an important thing to have in life, especially late in the second half,” he told the publication.

“You want a hassle-free joyful life, you want to give and not take, and you want someone to share things with. People who don’t have someone to share things with, it’s a great loss, someone to look at a sunset with.

“When you see something beautiful you want to share it with someone, preferably a partner.”

Dennis, 44, was said to have been “blindsided” by their break-up, which went public in February.

The couple had become an item in late 2021 after Dennis, a former ad rep who previously worked at Singo’s Macquarie Radio Network station 2GB, bonded with the mogul over their mutual love of horses.

Their romance became more serious when Singo had a serious cardiac episode that was said to have left him at “death’s door”, prompting Dennis – a divorced mother of two – to move into his Central Coast home to look after him.

But their relationship came to an abrupt end after Singo ended things due to their “40-year age-gap”, friends claimed.

Singleton has been divorced, six times in his lifetime, including a short marriage to 60 Minutes reporter Liz Hayes in the early 90s, the SMH reports.

He’s had a long string of girlfriends in recent years, even controversially dating a “couple” of women at once, according to a report by The Daily Telegraph in 2021.

Before his relationship with Dennis, Singo enjoyed an on/off relationship with New York-based public relations expert Venessa Merrin.

The pair began dating in 2016 according to Daily Mail Australia, with the romance only coming to an end when Singo went official with Dennis in 2021.

Singleton is estimated to be worth $768 million.
