‘Eddie said I had to pay for this’: Martin Lawrence explains why Eddie Murphy insists the Bad Boys actor put money into their children’s wedding

Eddie Murphy And Martin Laurent are two of the funniest actors and comedians in the business since they both got their start in the ’80s. The pair have even worked together on hilarious films like the 1992 one. Boomerang and the 1999s Life. Now their latest project is soon becoming an in-law (although they also have an idea for a film)! That’s right, Lawrence’s daughter Jasmin and Murphy’s son Eric are set to get married, and Lawrence has revealed who fits the bill.

Last week, Jasmin Lawrence and Eric Murphy announced they were engaged after three years as a couple. Amid the news, Martin Lawrence had this to say when asked which of them would pay for the wedding:

Well, Eddie said I had to pay for that because he paid for his last daughters’ weddings, for the last six weddings. He said it’s my turn now. It doesn’t bother me. I don’t mind… It’s a blessing, and they are two fine young people.
