It’s been 12 years since Eddie Murphy (57) and his model ex-wife, Nicole Murphy (50), divorced. They were married for 13 years and most fans thought they’d last forever. Unfortunately, they amicably said ‘Peace out’ to each other in 2003 and went on with their lives. Nowadays, Eddie is ready to make an ‘honest woman’ (like the old folks used to say back in the day) out of his current lady, Paige Butcher.
The couple has been together since 2012. It’s now been confirmed that Eddie is ready to take things to the next level, because he popped the big question to Paige and of course she said ‘YES!’
Via Page Six: Eddie Murphy is engaged to his pregnant girlfriend Paige Butcher. The actor’s rep confirmed the news to Page Six on Friday. Butcher, 39, was spotted out and about in Los Angeles on Monday sporting a giant engagement ring.
That big rock that was referred to above, is making Paige’s hand look like she’ll have to do hand exercises just to hold that thang up. It’s huge and clearly, her new multimillionaire fiancee’ dropped some major dollars on her diamond. Peep Paige’s ring below…

Their precious little bun in the oven will make baby NUMBER 10 for Eddie! At 57 years old, y’all can see Eddie’s baby-making days are far from over. He and Paige have their adorable 2 year old, Izzy Oona Murphy. Eddie and Nicole Murphy have 5 children together- Shayne, Zola, Bella, Bria, and son, Miles Murphy. Former Spice Girl singer, Mel B. shares a daughter -Angel Iris Murphy- with Eddie.
