Eric Murphy, son of Eddie Murphy, and Jasmin Lawrence, daughter of Martin Lawrence, are officially engaged, marking a joyous union between two Hollywood families. Jasmin shared the news on Instagram with a heartfelt post: “God truly blessed us with a love that feels like destiny. We couldn’t be more excited for this next chapter.” The couple has been together since July 2021, meeting through Jasmin’s uncle rather than their famous fathers, who are long-time friends and co-stars.
Eric, 35, and Jasmin, 28, credit their familial backgrounds for the understanding that has strengthened their bond. Jasmin shared that their shared experiences as children of Hollywood icons gave them a unique connection. The couple announced their engagement on November 27, 2024, after three years of dating.
The families are yet to reveal wedding details, but it’s anticipated to be a star-studded affair, given the connections and legacies of both families. Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence, who starred together in Boomerang (1992) and Life (1999), are sure to add their comedic charm to the celebration.
The engagement has been widely celebrated by fans, who see it as a continuation of the friendship and legacy of two beloved stars in Hollywood.
