*Martin Lawrence’s daughter, Jasmin, and Eddie Murphy’s son, Eric, are engaged after more than three years of dating.
The pair announced their engagement over the weekend in a video on Instagram which sees Murphy getting down on one knee to propose to Jasmin, The Huffington Post reports. The couple captioned the post: “11.27.2024. We’re engaged!! God truly blessed us with a love that feels like destiny. We couldn’t be more excited for this next chapter ❤️❤️.”
“Special thank you to everyone who made this moment so beautiful!!” they added.
Murphy and Lawrence made their relationship official on Instagram in June 2021. Jasmin gushed about their relationship with InTouch Weekly in January 2022.
“We became really good friends, we bonded on a lot of things,” she said. “Obviously, we have similar backgrounds, so we understood each other on a certain level — and over time, it just, you know, became more.”
As we reported previously, Jasmin is Martin’s firstborn, whom he shares with his ex-wife Patricia Southall. Eric is Eddie’s oldest child, whom he shares with ex-girlfriend Paulette McNeely. He has ten children through relationships with McNeely, Nicole Murphy, Tamara Hood, Spice Girl Melanie Brown, and Paige Butcher.
“I am so blessed with my kids,” Eddie Murphy stated previously on Marc Maron’s WTF podcast. “I don’t have one bad seed. I don’t have any like ‘Oh you are the one.’ I don’t have any of that. My kids are so great, normal people — and nobody is like the Hollywood jerk kid,” he gushed.
“My kids are smart and are trying to do stuff. I am blessed with my kids. I really, really got lucky,” the actor/comedian added.
“My career, or what I am as an artist, that’s not at the center of my life. At the center of my life is my family and my kids,” Eddie said in a 2020 interview with Vanity Fair. “That’s the principal relationship, and everything comes after that. I have 10 kids, and I’m present, and I’m part of their lives. You got to have some kind of balance with career and personal life.”
