Eddie Murphy Opens Up About Being a Dad of 10

Eddie Murphy is talking parenting.

The 59-year-old Coming 2 America star got candid in an interview with The Mirror about his ten children, calling them the “center of everything.”

“I am going to be 60 in April and I have all these babies. I love fatherhood,” he explained.

“The whole idea of being out there and doing three movies a year, that s—t is over…I found over and over again and along the way I realized that if you put your children first you never make a bad decision,” he went on to say.

“When you hit a crossroads moment or you have got some s—t, you think, ‘Well, what is best for my children?’ If you go that route then you never make a bad decision,” he continued.

“I am so blessed with my kids. I don’t have one bad seed. I don’t have any like ‘Oh you are the one.’ I don’t have any of that. My kids are so great, normal people — and nobody is like the Hollywood jerk kid,” he went on to proudly say.

“My kids are smart and are trying to do stuff. I am blessed with my kids. I really, really got lucky.”

He and fiancee Paige Butcher welcomed their son Max in November of 2018. They also have a daughter, Izzy, 4. His oldest son Eric, with Paulette McNeely, is 31. He also has son Christian, 30, with Tamara Hood, and daughter Angel, 13, with Spice Girls member Mel B.

His five other children — daughters Bella, Zola, 21, Shayne, 26, Bria, 31, and Myles, 28 — are with ex-wife Nicole Mitchell Murphy.

Here’s why he stepped away from acting for nearly a decade.

Eddie Murphy Reveals Why He Stepped Away From Acting for Eight Years

Eddie Murphy is looking back at his career.

The 59-year-old actor opened up about taking a step back from acting on an episode of The Drew Barrymore Show on Friday (March 12).

Drew asked, “You had such a succession of these epic films, you know you were so young do you ever come down from those periods of time where you had hit after hit and you’re working?”

“I’ll tell you what happened to me,” Eddie replied. “I had it all the way together for years and years and years and then what happened with movies is they started offering you so much money to do stuff that I wound up doing, you know what that’s like, you’re just there and ‘You want to give me that much money to do that sh-t? Okay.’”

“I wound up doing a bunch of movies like that and it’s forever, like way after the money is spent that sh-itty movie is still playing on the movie channel,” he continued. “So I got to where I stopped having fun making movies, so I had to take a time, like 2011 I think it was, I stopped for like eight years, I stopped making movies and that’s when I had really, really quiet time and got re-centered. If I’m going to be doing something I want to be doing it because I want to do it. I got it all back together that way.”

Eddie also performed Drew‘s favorite Coming to America line, which you can watch in the clip below!

Drew recently discussed whether she had any plans to return to acting as well.
