Eddie Murphy's son and Martin Lawrence's daughter are married
No doubt that had there been a wedding reception for these fathers to speak at the speeches would have been pretty funny.
Eddie Murphy has revealed that his son Eric has married Martin Lawrence's daughter, Jasmin
The 'Beverly Hills Cop' star shared the news Thursday in an episode of 'The Jennifer Hudson Show.'
'They got married like two weeks ago,' Murphy said. 'They went off…everyone was making the big wedding the plans and then they decided they wanted to do something quiet, just the two of them.'
He also joked about the economic relief that the elopement provided Lawrence.
'Yeah, we're in-laws,' Murphy said. 'He don't have to pay for the big wedding now.'
The couple announced their engagement in November. Murphy said the plan is to instead have a party to celebrate the nuptials.
The elder Murphy and Lawrence are longtime friends who costarred in the 1992 film 'Boomerang' and 1999's 'Life.'
Murphy told Hudson he and Lawrence have several ideas for reuniting on the big screen, including a dream of Murphy's to remake the 1963 comedy 'It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.'

Jessica Alba Keeping It Civil With Ex-Husband for Kids, ‘Source' Claims
and her ex-husband, Cash Warren, are seemingly prioritizing peace after the divorce and keeping it civil for the good of their kids. The former couple exhibited their cooperation and understanding in their cozy Easter Sunday photos with a full house. Now, a source claimed they are likely planning more getaways in the near future, which is nothing short of a consolation for their three children — Honor, Haven, and Hayes. A Life & Style source revealed that Jessica Alba's main concerns include maintaining the 'status quo' for her kids and 'embracing change' after her and Cash Warren's divorce. The former couple is reportedly remaining civil despite breaking up. So, for Alba, 'doing holidays' with her ex-husband 'feels like an important tradition to try to maintain' out of consideration for their three young children. The insider continued that their youngest, Hayes, who is only 7 years old, wanted both his parents around for his Easter egg hunt. Furthermore, it's important for the actor that their teenage daughters, Honor and Haven, 'feel they have some semblance of a family.' Alba believes taking 'a family trip together' could prove vital to sustain their connection. The family of five 'can rent a villa so they can have separate rooms,' given that their split changed the family dynamics. Nevertheless, Alba has 'got no designs on getting back together' with her ex-husband. 'This is really for the kids more than anything,' the source confirmed, adding that the mom of three is only following Gwyneth Paltrow's 'advice on conscious uncoupling.' This is reportedly something Paltrow and her former husband, Chris Martin, engaged in, and it was a 'healing' experience for them. Alba and Warren separated in December and filed for divorce two months later, calling it quits after a 16-year-long marriage. A second insider had previously claimed that it had been over for quite some time 'in a romance sense.' In fact, there was no 'ugliness' in their breakup, and their divorce has been 'going smoothly' so far. The post Jessica Alba Keeping It Civil With Ex-Husband for Kids, 'Source' Claims appeared first on Reality Tea.

William and Kate ‘Keen to Pull Back a Little' and Enjoy Time Together After Cancer Recovery
and Kate Middleton are more in love than ever these days as they get ready to become king and queen, and a source exclusively tells Life & Style they've been granted permission from ailing King Charles to take more time off in order to enjoy the princess' rebounding health with as little pressure on them as possible. 'William really stepped up during Kate's illness. He took on so many extra duties even in the midst of dealing with a sick wife,' the insider says. 'It's what had to be done, and he got on with it, but it certainly took a huge toll.' The Princess of Wales, 43, recently bounced back from a terrible bout with cancer throughout most of 2024. She was admitted to the hospital for "planned abdominal surgery' in January that year, though details at the time were scarce and the Palace said she would be off her feat and out of the public eye until at least Easter. "She hopes that the public will understand her desire to maintain as much normality for her children as possible; and her wish that her personal medical information remains private,' the Crown said at the time. William, 42, took up public duties in February, appearing alone at several functions throughout the spring. A strange incident concerning an altered photo published on British Mother's Day in March led to intense speculation — and even quite a bit of criticism — but later that month she gave an update and announced her cancer diagnosis, putting the matter to bed as royal watchers around the world shared their sympathies. After a successful round of chemotherapy, she reappeared for the first time in June looking healthy and from then on has been slowly returning to full duties. 'Now that she's feeling better and the constant fear of losing her has eased off, William's big focus has been on making the most of their time and this second chance at life together,' the insider reveals. 'He's spoken to his father and gotten the go-ahead to tone down the frenetic pace, Charles doesn't want to see William burn out and he certainly doesn't want to overload Kate when she's still fragile.' The King, 76, has been dealing with his own health woes since announcing he's also undergoing chemotherapy in February 2024, with the source adding, 'No doubt Charles' own battle with cancer has made him especially sensitive to what Kate has gone through.' With that understanding, 'He's told her and William to take whatever time they need. They won't go overboard but they are very keen to pull back a little so they can focus on each other more. That means more romantic dinners, more long walks and more holidays.' 'They're mapping out summer plans right now, with the usual family trips to Cornwall, and the Isles of Scilly, but they're also looking to take a romantic holiday just the two of them and talking about going back to the Seychelles where they honeymooned.'
