How many children does Eddie Murphy have, when did he date Mel B and what’s his net worth?
EDDIE Murphy is one of the highest grossing Hollywood stars in the world, with his films earning billions worldwide.
But away from Hollywood, the actor has found time to have children - quite a few, in fact - including a daughter with former Spice Girl Mel B. Here's what else we know about the comedy icon...
How many children does Eddie Murphy have?
Eddie was born in Brooklyn, New York, on April 3, 1961 - that makes him 57.
He now has ten children by five different women.
On December 4, 2018, it was announced that his fiancee Paige Butcher, 39, gave birth to a son, Max Charles Murphy.
The actor's first child is Eric, who was born in 1989. Eric's mum is a lady called Paulette McNeely. She has never been photographed and little is known about her.
Eddie's second child, son Christian, was born in 1990. His mother is Eddie's then-girlfriend Tamara Hood Johnson.
Murphy has five children with ex-wife Nicole Mitchell Murphy.
The pair met in 1988 at an NAACP Image Awards show. They got married at The Plaza Hotel in New York City on March 18, 1993, and divorced in 2005.
Their children are Bria, Myles, Shayne, Zola, and Bella.
After his 2006 divorce from Nicole, Eddie started dating former Spice Girl, Mel B. She then fell pregnant and stated that the child was Murphy's.
However, when questioned about the pregnancy in December 2006, Eddie was reluctant to take responsibility.
He said: "I don't know whose child that is until it comes out and has a blood test. You shouldn't jump to conclusions, sir."
Mel gave birth to a baby girl, Angel Iris Murphy Brown, on Murphy's 46th birthday, April 3, 2007.
On June 22, 2007, Mel's reps announced that a DNA test had confirmed that Murphy was the father.
Eddie's ninth child, Izzy, was born in May 2016. Her mum is model Paige Butcher, Eddie's partner since 2012.
Eddie and Paige announced in August 2018 that they're expecting their second child together - Eddie's 10th.
He told Entertainment Tonight in 2016: "The brightest part of my life is my kids.
"My world revolves around them -- even the old, grey bald ones."
