After Years of Searching, Eddie Murphy Has Finally Found the One

Oscar-nominated actor and comedian Eddie Murphy is no stranger to love. He and Nicole Murphy divorced after 12 years of marriage, and he shares children with spice girl Mel B, Tamara Hood, and Paulette McNeely. Amongst many other attempts at finding forever with the wrong one, it seems he’s finally figured it out.

After a five-year engagement , he and Australian model Paige Butcher have officially wed, and they certainly plan to make it last. Sharing 8-year-old daughter Izzy Oona and 5-year-old son Max Charles, the two have built a warm home with a large, blended family. Here’s a deeper look into their journey.

Who Is Eddie Murphy’s New Wife?

Murphy and Butcher met in 2012, welcoming their first child four years later and getting engaged two years after that. While Butcher proclaims to prefer a more private life, she often speaks to the affectionate dynamic of their relationship. She claims that Murphy is “very, very sweet and romantic.” Butcher goes on to claim that he frequently reminds her how beautiful she is and prioritizes their union above all else.

In fact, he shared with Vanity Fair in 2020 “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.” While their nearly 20-year age difference is a burning topic of conversation, as Murphy is 63 and Butcher is 44, it hasn’t made much of a difference for the couple.

Who Is Paige Butcher?

Butcher was born in Perth, Australia to a clothing designer mom, which prompted her gateway to modeling. She attended Santa Maria College in Attadale, Australia before relocating to New York to pursue her modeling dream, residing there for 14 years while climbing up her work ladder. Outside of her career and marriage to a mega-celebrity, Butcher is a mother, enjoying the simplicity of life. She involves herself in charity work, stays off social media and bikes daily near Venice Beach in California.

Their Destination Wedding

A five-year engagement calls for an extravagant ceremony, and that’s just what they did. The two wed on July 9th, 2024 on the beautiful island of Anguilla during a small private ceremony with family and close friends. The Caribbean wedding was breathtaking, complete with a crystal blue water backdrop and white sands. A true family man at heart, Murphy is a father of 10, and each kid was in attendance. Through their marriage, Butcher has become stepmom to Eric, 34, Christian, 33, Myles Mitchell, 31, Zola Ivy, 24, and Angel Iris, 17.
