Hey there, folks. Let’s take a moment to celebrate a major milestone in the life of comedy legend Eddie Murphy. At 57 years old, Eddie has officially become a father of ten! That’s right, folks—ten kids. This joyful news comes after the birth of his latest son, Max Charles Murphy, with his fiancée, Paige Butcher, on November 30th. Eddie’s spokesperson shared the happy news with Us Weekly, confirming that both mom and baby are doing great. Baby Max came into the world weighing in at a healthy 6 lbs., 11 oz., and stretching to 19 inches long. This little bundle of joy is already making headlines!
For Eddie and Paige, this isn’t their first rodeo when it comes to expanding their family. Back in 2016, they welcomed their first child together, a daughter named Izzy Oona Murphy. So, it’s no surprise that they were thrilled when they announced they were expecting their second child earlier this year. The couple revealed the exciting news back in August, when Paige was spotted out and about in LA with a noticeable baby bump. A rep for the Shrek star confirmed at the time, “Eddie Murphy and longtime girlfriend Paige Butcher are pleased to announce that they are expecting their second child in December.” Now, the happy couple is basking in the joy of their growing family.
Just as the excitement around baby Max was building, there were whispers that Eddie and Paige might be tying the knot before welcoming their second child. According to Star magazine, Eddie is ready to make Paige his bride. A source close to the couple revealed, “Eddie only wants to do this once more. There’s no doubt in his mind, Paige is The One!” And it seems Paige feels the same way. The source added, “Paige can’t wait to marry Eddie… In her mind, the sooner the better!” It looks like this family is about to get even closer.
