Hollywood royalty just became family.
Eric Murphy, son of comedy icon Eddie Murphy, has officially married Jasmin Lawrence, daughter of fellow legend Martin Lawrence, in a low-key private ceremony.
???????????????? Private and Perfect
Eddie Murphy broke the news during a recent appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, revealing that Eric and Jasmin opted for an intimate wedding—just the two of them and a preacher.
“They skipped the big Hollywood wedding. Just them, a preacher, and love,” Eddie shared, smiling. “They wanted it to be private and meaningful.”
The couple, who started dating in 2021, had originally teased plans for a grand wedding before announcing their engagement in November 2024 with a romantic, candlelit proposal video on Instagram that instantly melted fans’ hearts.
A Future Celebration Might Still Happen
While the official ceremony was quiet, Eddie hinted that a larger celebration could still be in the works.
“There might be a party later… and maybe me and Martin will get up and sing something ridiculous together,” he joked.
Proud Fathers, Lifelong Friends
The marriage brings together two comedy dynasties. Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence, longtime friends and co-stars in hits like Boomerang and Life, have often joked about their kids’ relationship.
Eddie even recalled a light-hearted agreement:
“I told Martin years ago, if these two end up married, he’s paying for the wedding. Well… now he’s off the hook,” Murphy laughed.
A Love Story with Legacy
Fans have followed Eric and Jasmin’s love story closely, captivated by their chemistry and the legacy behind their names. Now officially husband and wife, they’ve turned a Hollywood connection into a real-life love story—with more to come.
Congratulations to the happy couple! ????
