Eddie Murphy Marries Longtime Girlfriend Paige Butcher In Caribbean

Eddie Murphy in formal

Eddie Murphy, the renowned actor known for his roles in movies like 'Coming to America' and 'Daddy Day Care,' recently tied the knot with his longtime girlfriend, Paige Butcher. The couple exchanged vows in a private ceremony in Anguilla, surrounded by close family and friends. Butcher looked stunning in a fitted lace gown by Mira Zwillin, while Murphy opted for an off-white suit.

The couple, who have been together since 2012, got engaged in 2018 and share two children, an 8-year-old daughter named Izzy and a 5-year-old son named Max. This marks Murphy's second marriage and Butcher's first, with Butcher not having children from previous relationships.

Murphy, who has a total of ten children, has eight from previous relationships. His first child, Eric, was born in 1989, followed by five children with ex-wife Nicole Mitchell Murphy - daughters Bria, Shayne, Zola, and Bella, and son Myles. He also has a son named Christian with ex-girlfriend Tamara Hood and a daughter named Angel with Melanie Brown.

The couple has largely kept their relationship out of the public eye, with Butcher describing Murphy as 'very sweet and romantic.' Murphy, in turn, has publicly praised Butcher's appearance and support, including during his acceptance speech at the Golden Globes.

Most recently, the couple attended the premiere of 'Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F' with Murphy's daughters Bria, Shayne, and Bella, showcasing their close-knit family dynamic.
