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.

Ocasio-Cortez, speaking during a CNN town hall alongside Vermont Independent Senator Bernie Sanders, accused Republicans of refusing to work to end the government shutdown, stressing that the country’s health care system could collapse if Republicans refuse to meet Democrats’ demands in negotiations.

GOP Rep. Blames Coordinated 'Ruse' After Swastika Image Is Seen Displayed In His Office

Ohio Republican Representative Dave Taylor demanded an investigation after a swastika image was found on display in his Washington, D.C., office, and blamed it on a "targeted" "ruse."

Politico obtained a photo from a virtual meeting showing a distorted image of the American flag—its red and white lines altered into the shape of a swastika— pinned to what appears to be a cubicle wall behind Angelo Elia, a staffer for Taylor. Beside it hung a pocket Constitution and a congressional calendar. Elia’s involvement in the incident, if any, remains unclear.
