Eddie Murphy’s expanding family has been a hot topic of conversation in Hollywood recently. The actor and comedian, known for his roles in films like Beverly Hills Cop, has quite the Hollywood-sized family tree.
Tipsters previously mentioned that Eddie and his partner Paige Butcher were considering adding another baby to their brood. However, it seems like that plan has been put on hold for now. With two young children of their own, Izzy and Max, along with Eddie’s other children from previous relationships, the couple has their hands full. Despite the chaos that comes with a large family, Eddie is said to love every minute of it.
In addition to Izzy and Max, Eddie shares children with various ex-partners. He has a son named Eric with Paulette McNeely, a son named Christian with Tamara Hood, and daughters named Bria, Miles, Shayne, Zola, and Bella with ex-wife Nicole Mitchell. He also shares a daughter named Angel with former Spice Girl Mel B.
During the 2023 Golden Globes, fellow comedian Tracy Morgan couldn’t help but joke about Eddie’s prolificacy when it comes to fathering children. While presenting him with the Cecil B. DeMille Award, Tracy quipped about Eddie’s “weak pull-out game” due to his ten children. Although Eddie laughed it off, Paige, who was by his side, seemed less amused. Sources close to the couple have revealed that Paige isn’t interested in having another child and is happy with their current family dynamic.
Despite the jokes and speculation, Eddie and Paige seem content with the family they have. With a mix of children from different relationships, they have created a loving and supportive home. While the idea of expanding their family may have been on the table at one point, for now, they are focusing on cherishing the time they have with their children. And with Eddie’s comedic talents and Paige’s support, there’s no doubt that their family will continue to thrive.
