Eddie Murphy has married Australian model Paige Butcher in a private ceremony held in Anguilla on Tuesday, July 9. The intimate event was attended by close family and friends, as reported by People magazine, which also shared exclusive photos from the wedding.
Murphy and Butcher have been together since 2012 and got engaged in September 2018. They have two children together: an 8-year-old daughter and a 5-year-old son. Their first child was born in 2016, and they welcomed their second child in 2018, the same year they got engaged.
This is Murphy’s second marriage and Butcher’s first. The comedian has a total of 10 children and expressed gratitude to Butcher and his children during his acceptance speech for the Cecil B. DeMille Award at the 2023 Golden Globe Awards.
