Picturesque Tuesday in Anguilla, Eddie Murphy, the 63-year-old comedy icon, tied the knot with Paige Butcher, his 44-year-old partner and Australian model. The intimate ceremony, as reported by People, took place amidst the serene backdrop of the Caribbean island.
Joined by close family and friends, including their young children Izzy Oona and Max Charles, Murphy and Butcher exchanged vows in a private affair. Butcher, stunning in a lace-adorned gown by Mira Zwillinger, walked down the aisle, while Murphy opted for a stylish white Brioni suit.
This marks Murphy’s second marriage and Butcher’s first. The couple, who began their relationship in 2012, welcomed their first child in 2016 and their second in 2018, shortly after announcing their engagement.
Despite maintaining a low profile about their personal lives, Butcher has described Murphy as “very, very sweet and romantic” in rare public comments, particularly before the 2020 Golden Globes.
As the exclusive wedding photos shared by People on social media reveal, Murphy and Butcher’s union adds to a week of notable celebrity weddings, including John Mulaney and Olivia Munn’s recent announcement of their nuptials.
