Eric Murphy and Jasmin Lawrence announced their engagement on social media to the delight of their comedian fathers' fans.

Martin Lawrence’s daughter, Jasmin Lawrence, and Eddie Murphy’s son, Eric Murphy, are officially engaged!

The couple, together for over three years, announced the happy news on Instagram with a romantic video featuring Eric’s candlelit proposal, set to Eric Benét’s Spend My Life with You.


Eric, the eldest of Eddie’s 10 children, and Jasmin, Martin’s firstborn of three, are now set to merge two iconic comedy dynasties.

Jasmin and Eric shared their excitement in the caption:

“We’re engaged!! God truly blessed us with a love that feels like destiny. We couldn’t be more excited for this next chapter ❤️❤️.”

Jasmin has spoken about their strong bond, telling InTouch Weekly in 2022 that their similar backgrounds brought them close. Despite their famous fathers starring in films like Life and Boomerang together, it was Jasmin’s uncle who introduced them.

Eddie Murphy and Martin Lawrence both support the relationship, with Murphy joking earlier this year: “They look amazing together… Our gene pool is going to make this funny baby.”


Fans celebrated the happy news.

Gavin Newsom Hilariously Dunks On Trump For Hosting The Kennedy Center Honors

California Governor Gavin Newsom trolled President Donald Trump by sharing an AI-generated photo of himself accepting the inaugural—and not real—"Kennedy Center peace prize" from Trump.

The photo accompanied a post in which Newsom mocked not just Trump but also Ric Grenell, the Kennedy Center's president, whom Newsom referred to as a "janitor" in a post that—like many of Newsom's past posts—is written in a style not unlike the rants Trump publishes on Truth Social.
