Eddie Murphy Reveals His Son Eric Married Martin Lawrence’s Daughter Jasmin in Private Wedding: ‘We’re In-Laws’

In a heartwarming union that brings together two of Hollywood’s most iconic comedic families, Eric Murphy, son of Eddie Murphy, and Jasmin Lawrence, daughter of Martin Lawrence, have officially tied the knot. The couple opted for an intimate church ceremony, choosing to celebrate their love privately with just a preacher present.

Eddie Murphy shared the joyful news during an appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, revealing that the wedding took place approximately two weeks prior. He humorously noted that the couple decided to forego the elaborate wedding plans in favor of a more personal celebration, joking that Martin Lawrence “doesn’t have to pay for that big wedding now.”

Eric, 35, and Jasmin, 29, began their relationship in 2021 and announced their engagement in November 2024. The proposal was a romantic affair, with Eric presenting a room adorned with candles and white roses, culminating in a heartfelt moment shared on social media.

Interestingly, their introduction wasn’t orchestrated by their famous fathers but rather by Jasmin’s uncle. Despite their parents’ shared history in films like Boomerang and Life, the couple’s bond developed independently, rooted in shared experiences and mutual understanding.

As the newlyweds embark on this new chapter, fans and followers celebrate the merging of these two legendary families. While the ceremony was private, there’s anticipation for a larger celebration in the future, with Eddie Murphy playfully suggesting a potential duet with Martin Lawrence at the festivities.

This union not only signifies a personal milestone for Eric and Jasmin but also symbolizes the blending of two rich comedic legacies, promising a future filled with love, laughter, and perhaps, collaborative endeavors.
