Famous actor and comedian Eddie Murphy recently tied the knot for the second time as he begins a new chapter in his life. According to a report from People, the former Saturday Night Live cast member exchanged vows with his longtime partner, Australian model Paige Butcher, whom he had been engaged to since 2018. The couple, who have an 8-year-old daughter named Izzy and a 5-year-old son named Max Charles, said their "I dos" in a private ceremony in Anguilla on July 9. This is Murphy's second marriage, while it is Butcher's first.
Murphy and Butcher first started dating in 2012 and welcomed their first child together, a daughter named Izzy, on May 3, 2016. They then got engaged two months before their son Max was born on November 30, 2018. Interestingly, Max was born just two months after the couple got engaged. Prior to his relationship with Butcher, Murphy was married to Nicole Murphy from 1993 to 2006.
The wedding took place just a few days after the release of Murphy's latest movie, Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F, on July 3 via Netflix. This is the fourth installment in the successful Beverly Hills Cop franchise, with the first movie being released in 1984, followed by two sequels in 1987 and 1994. All in all, the franchise has grossed a whopping $735.5 million worldwide.
In other news, it seems like another wedding may be on the horizon for Murphy's family. His son Eric has been in a relationship with Jasmin, daughter of fellow actor Martin Lawrence, for several years now. In a recent interview on CBS Mornings, Murphy shared his thoughts on their relationship, saying he thinks it's "cool" that the two are together. He also jokingly mentioned that with the comedic genes from him and Lawrence, any future child between Eric and Jasmin is bound to be funny.
"They're both beautiful," Murphy shared with Gayle King. "They look amazing together. And it's funny because everyone always asks, 'Will the baby be funny?' Just with our gene pool, it's bound to be a funny baby. If they ever get married and have a child, I'm expecting the child to be funny." It's clear that comedy runs in the family, and Murphy couldn't be happier for his son and his potential future daughter-in-law.
All in all, it's an exciting time for Murphy and his family as they celebrate his new marriage and the success of his latest movie. With a beautiful new wife by his side and the possibility of another wedding in the future, it seems like Murphy's life is filled with love and laughter, both on and off the big screen.
