Rupert Murdoch will be have to provide President Donald Trump with regular health updates in a deal that will delay the News Corporation boss’ testimony in Trump’s lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal.

The unusual development comes a week after Trump’s legal team filed a motion to expedite Murdoch’s testimony, under the belief that the 94-year-old may die before he could sit down for testimony in the case.

Trump filed a lawsuit in July against Murdoch’s Wall Street Journal last month over a bombshell article by Khadeeja Safdar and Joe Palazzolo that dished on an album allegedly organized by Epstein’s former partner Ghislaine Maxwell for his 50th birthday in 2003.

According to the report, Trump submitted a letter for the birthday collection that included a lewd doodle and a message that referenced a “wonderful secret” between the two men.

Trump has denied ever having written the letter, claiming, “I never wrote a picture in my life. I don’t draw pictures of women.”
