Mel B says that her “heart dropped down to” her “gut” when Eddie Murphy demanded a DNA test to prove he fathered their daughter, Angel Iris. She told Essence magazine..
“I went to London and on my return flight I learned that he made that announcement about wanting a DNA test on that TV show. Then I saw him on the red carpet with Tracey Edmonds and that’s when I knew we were over.”
Mel – who already has an eight-year-old daughter, Phoenix Chi, with ex-husband Jimmy Gulzar – also told Essence:
“This was a completely planned pregnancy. This wasn’t some random, ‘Oops I fell over and I’m pregnant.’ I don’t live my life like that. I’m a responsible parent and have been a responsible single parent since I got divorced.”
They even met each other’s family and home schooled their kids together.
ESSENCE.com: It’s also been reported that you attended a barbecue last July, and that following August you accompanied him and his five children on a family vacation to Hawaii with your eldest daughter, Phoenix Chi. Was your purpose to bond as a blended family?
MEL B: My whole point was to introduce the kids and have them spend time together. We went on vacation with family and friends and everyone got along like a house on fire, which was lovely. My big thing is if my kid doesn’t like you or your kids then it’s a no-go. Trust me, if my daughter doesn�t like someone then I don�t like them. It’s as simple as that.
ESSENCE.com: I also hear that his brother, Charlie Murphy, gave you the thumbs-up while your mom also approved of Eddie.
MEL B: Yeah, he spoke to my mum on the phone when I was in London and reassured her, because my mom had never met him. I held a big dinner party in Los Angeles so my dad could meet him and my dad really liked him. My mum said, “Eddie and I didn’t shake hands, but everything’s fine.”ESSENCE.com: Did you ever live with him in his Beverly Hills mansion?
MEL B: No, I have property because I have to keep my child’s lifestyle somewhat regular. I wasn’t going to change up my lifestyle that quickly. But my daughter was being homeschooled at his house with two of his kids, so I was there most of the time.
In the end, though, Brown says she wasn’t sure if her and Murphy’s lifestyles would have meshed.
“There were certain things that went on in his house with his lifestyle that I wasn’t prepared to be a part of,” she says. “I have a baby with this guy so I have to be somewhat respectful. I’ll simply say that there were lifestyle changes that he would have to make if we were going to live together and do it properly.”
Word is Eddie still hasn’t

I THINK EDDIE JUST WANTED TO HIT IT & QUIT IT..NO LOVE.
Do what you have to do….
Eddie should be ashamed of himself. Typical black man spilling semen—oh, but wait a minute, the pregnancy was planned!!!! But why “plan” a pregnancy with someone you are not married to. Mel B. could have prevented her pain. If it was unplanned, I would feel a little more sorry for her. But who knows what game Eddie was spitting in ear to get that bareback sex……..
eddie is lame…. he doesn’t even deserve capital letter in my post… Mel B ain’t the first… Black women raise kids on their own all the time… Her baby ain’t gonna starve!
♥ i’m done
Enough talkin’ Bitch…..Get the check!!!! ….Don’t nobody care about all the behind the scene details, and personal intricacies involving this..and that.
What we want know when you gonna put that sucka’ on ice, and take him for ALL he’s worth!!!!
and Eddie might just have an obsession with knocking up biracial women…Hell, Nicole Murphy got 6 or 7 kids. I hope Tracey Edmonds got her tubes tied by now!!!
And what are those lifestyles changes that Mel is referring to? Is Eddie smoking a crack pipe?
Lifestyle changes? Hmmm…
she said “everyone got along like a house on fire” lol, I don’t get that part
i lost repsect 4 eddie *shakes head* when i heard bout this, i neva knew he was like dis, shame on u eddie lol @ 4 capital letter thing
OMG, some ppl are so ignorant (TY)
Ok, so two people plan to get married, but they plan to have their child before the actual wedding? WTH?? It’s not even like they didn’t believe in marriage, it’s not even like it was a total accident, they planned to get married BUT planned to have a child BEFORE the wedding? ONCE AGAIN : WTH is wrong with people’s logic??!!
This is some strange mess – the pregnancy was planned— Why? They had only been seeing one another a few months. Eddie has 5 [or 6 kids].
They made a commitment to bring a child into the world, but no commitment to be together? Doesn’t make sense — but Eddie’s behavior sense was less than respectful, and how he could just turn be back on his innocent flesh and blood is beyond explanation.
Oops
^^^ I mean, Eddie’s behavior “SINCE”
Mel B enough already noone cares least of all eddie. Mel is as much responsible for this as eddie. I can’t believe the tone of the comment board. That is what’s wrong with our community! Children deserve to have responsible parenting. Both of these individuals have shown a lck of, especially MEL B keep yo biz out da streets!!
# 11 I agree totally she played herself by going along with planned pregancy Eddie got scared and ran.
No # 6, he doesn’t smoke a crack pipe, he smokes THE PIPE. And of course, the child wasn’t planned. Mel is just being a “responsible” parent and not admitting in public that her child was an accident.
I’m waiting for Eddie’s side of the story because it seems that Mel had to have been a little delusional to think they were going to be a family that quick.
If what Mel is saying is true, I feel bad for her. However, see needs to stfu already…stop telling everyone your damn business. Also, we don’t know the full story, because Eddie hasn’t made any comments, so we can’t really be hard on him like that. She should have gotten married before planning on having a baby anyway.Some Black people are so backwards.
SHE IS FULL OF BS. WE ALL KNOW WHY SHE CAME ALL THE WAY ACROSS THE WATER AND LANDED IN HOLLYWOOD. THE BABY WAS JUST A CONSEQUENCE OF BAD CHOICES. SHE SAID OOOPS EDDIE? I JUST WANTED SOME CONNECTIONS. SHE KEPT THE BABY BECAUSE SHE COULD GET PAID FASTER THAT GET A CAREER IN HOLLYWOOD. THIS WAS A FAST PAYDAY. IT IS REALLY SAD THAT AFTER 5 KIDS? EDDIE DID NOT MAKE A SMARTER DECISION. AN INNOCENT CHILD WILL FOREVER BE IN THE MIDDLE OF TWO PEOPLES BAD DECISION. I’M NOT SAYING HAVING A BABY IS A BAD THING BUT TO HAVE ONE IN SPITE OF YOUR LIFE BEING A MESS IS JUST PLAIN SELFISH. HAVING ONE JUST BECAUSE THE DAD IS ONE OF THE RICHEST DUDES IN THE BIZZ IS DOWNRIGHT DESPERATE! OH AND EDDIE? DON’T THINK PEOPLE ARE JUST LOOKING AT HER. YOU LOOK LIKE A STONE COLD FOOL TO A LOT OF PEOPLE.
WHAT DOES SHE MEAN….”THINGS THAT WENT ON IN HIS HOUSE……….”
Can’t We All Just Get Along! LOL
If you read the whole article then maybe your opinion will change. She said if she wanted another baby, why wait eight years to have another one, it was planned, they were also planning on marrying, then Eddie tripped, something pissed him off then he, he gets on national television and dogs Mel out. In the Essence interview she is like look you’re gonna be a daddy whether you like it or not and not by just sending a check, you will spend time with your daughter. Again read the article yourself, I know Eddie hates this negative publicity, but if he didn’t take his butt on national tv denying something he helped create he wouldn’t be in this position. And if Charlie Murphy gave Mel the big up, he should meet his niece and be a bigger man than his brother.
Mel shouldnt had a child with someone that must make ‘lifestyle changes’ anyway!
Didn’t she learn that from the EXPERIENCE with her ex-husband?
Is this story still going on?? Gosh its gone on for too long now Im gettin tired of ‘whos the daddy’ game, she goin on and on about and she should just let this whole thing go smh…all I see is her face in the media talkin bout Eddie and the baby and all this ish its doin my headin…and now she tellin us the pregnancy was planned, she is so crazyy no wonder Eddie probs walked out on her, give it a rest spice girl chick no-ones cares not even Eddie so stop your talk now cuz no-one wants to hear it
LOL@#4. I cosign with you #9.
Damn! he could have at least emailed or called her bout the DNA test, instead of announicng it on TV. WTF? If you are man enough to shoot it out, then be man enough to confront the chick. As number 9 said, i’ve lost all respect for him, and they are both too damn old for this mess.
A lot of people really came down on Eddie because he apparently denied that the child wasn’t his. In the interview that he did over in Europe, he was asked by the journalist about Melanie being pregnant and, he said that they should wait until the tests came back before people should say he’s the father. Anyways I agree with what a lot of people were saying, they had been only going out for a few months why in the hell were they planning to have a baby? Why didn’t they plan on getting married before they brought life into the world? In my opinion they were both too old to be that irresponsible in getting her pregnant. That’s just my opinion.
It her pregnancy was planned, why would she plan it with a man who already had five kids!! that’s a dumb plan!!
i dont see who would want eddie anyway
Mel B was a Spice Girl. She has more money than Davey Crockett.
Why do broke men always think somebody is trying to take a brother for their money? Why would she need to “use” Eddie Murphy when she had her own?
Think about it where was the glove even eddie never said he used one why I really think it was more then what eddie said crazy ass it sound most women don’t use anything if it’s there old man yes many get out there like that and catch things but not everyone just most depends on how long you all been together. That how it was in my last relationship we never did but I thank god I walked away with just daughter it could have always turn out another way but in still those seven years I love real hard always has and I get that from mel b so you can tell she still hurts
I wish females would stop tripping a man will tell you anything during sex thats your dumb ass if you fall for that he just got out a marriage what the hell was she thinking dont get mad at Eddie she is the one going around telling the story to anybody that will listen to make a dollar and try to get someone to feel sorry for her!!!!
@ #10 Like ohmy God…GO TO HELL!!! My comment could not have been that ignorant.
After-all you felt the need to reply!
Besides it’s very apparent that the Majority are in total agreement with me…..so there!!!! lol
Damm all u black hoes think about his ”the check”. btw Mel B is one hell of a MILF
@ Justice I agree with what you’re saying, I’m not putting the blame on just one person because I think that Eddie was just as irresponsible also but, I don’t know why some women don’t know by now that a man will say anything to you to get you into bed.
Eddie just want to hit that and then get back to Johnny Gill, Arsenio and the “boys.”
lmao@5 but for real she need to shutup and move on, how u plannin to get married but u dont like his lifestyle? wtf?
EDDIE NAH BOY. HOW YOU SO DRED! BE A MAN STEP UP AND TAKE CARE OF YOUR KID, YOU NO GOOD FOR NOTHING ASS. POOR MEL B. BTW PPL OUR FAV CELEBS GET BUSY FIRST THEN GET MARRIED, LOL WELL SOME NEVER GET MARRIED. YES LOOK AT NICOLE AND THAT PARTNA JOEL FROM GOOD CHARLETTE ONLY GOING OUT FOR SOME MONTHS NOW A KID IS ON THE WAY. TOM AND KAT. LOOK AT BRAD AND ANGELINA, BRAD JUST DUMPED JEN AND STAYED COMMITED TO ANGIE. SO I GUESS MEL WAS HOPING FOR THE SAME WITH EDDIE. WHAT A SHAME!
PPL IN HOLLYWOOD MONTHS IS LIKE YEARS TO THEM DAMN DELUSIONAL PEOPLE THEY ALL CRAZY IF YOU ASK ME!
P.S HOW IN THE HELL EDDY DOES GET THESE FINE ASS WOMEN? HE AIN’T A LOOKER AT ALL. AND TO ME HE HAS NO CHARM. JUST JOKES. HMM…. YEAH MAYBE THAT’S IT THE LADIES LOVE A FUNNY LOOKING MAN THAT IS ALSO FUNNY.
HEHEHE I LOVE “COMING TO AMERICA”
When are people going to realize that Eddie Murphy owns property on BBM (Broke Back Mountain). He was bogus for the way he did Mel B.
#35- I totally agree with you. it doesn’t make sense. she looks really sneaky to me. I either read or heard on one of the gossip tv shows that Eddie denied the baby because he thought that the baby belongs to the dude that’s dating Mel now. Either way it doesn’t make sense to me, sounds like really irresponsible people or someone who’s lying too much to keep all her stories straight.
co sign with @22. Why would you plan on having a child with someone you feel needs to change their”Lifestyle”. Lying like a typical women trying to act like the victim..about maintaining a private life- then going around telling the world your business. However, this is what Eddie gets for talking about her on that talk show, first. Regardless of this fact, she needs to stfu, for real. Your not as innocent as you making yourself out to be, and the only reason why I think Eddie isn’t retaliating against her is because, he doesn’t want her revealing any of his skeletons.
In conclusion, Mel…stfu already
I agree with what everyone is saying, Melanie needs to move on with her life. I was listening to the radio on the way to work one morning and the dj’s were talking about an interview that she did comparing Eddie’s and her new boyfriend’s manhood’s. How her new boyfriend was more well endowed then Eddie. I thought that it was an extremely immature and tacky thing to do. It sounds like she’s still bitter because Eddie didn’t want anything to do with her.
#5 LOL, that last line is so cold…but true!
I think it is very interesting that Eddie hasn’t said much all the while Mel B is soaking up the publicity from this situation. If she is scheming for the cream why hasn’t Eddie called her out on it yet??? It goes back to what does she have against him to just lay down for her “media junkets.”
It seems like every time a woman wants to make some quick cash, they decide to open their legs and get pregnant.
Any person who thinks EDDIE is wrong for questioning if this child was actually his is a fucking imbecile. Any man would be crazy not to question if he is the father of a baby from a woman who he met and fuck in the span of 2 weeks. I really don’t give a fuck what MelB has to say about EDDIE.. It is time for MelB to accept responsibility for her actions. The truth is, about 25% o of babies born in this country are from extra-marital affairs or cheatings. So, I won’t get upset at EDDIE for questioning if that was his child.
MelB is a scorn woman, trying to recapture some lost fame that she had with the spice girls. This shit with women is getting out of control. I am confused with women in general.
If you open your legs to a man, do you think he is gonna turn you down?
And if you open your legs to him, do you think he owes you anything?
The last time I checked, you both are receiving pleasure for this interaction. You women make it seems like you are doing men a big favor when you spread your ass open to a man. Fuck outta here with this bullshit
You women need to start being more accountable. And MelB needs to shut the fuck up already. The whore is a known psycho. She is an egomaniacal, egotistical, self-deprecating low life. I have no fucking respect for her. And I feel sorry for this baby girl.
Rista dont hate on Mel B! At least she is taking care of her child! Eddie Murphy skipped out on the kid and didnt even send her a birthday card when she was born on HIS birthday! At lease Melanie didnt abandon the kid like her father! so dont put her and him in the same category of “faults”
the only thing that makes me wonder about Melanie’s judgement though..is the fact that she had unprotected sex with gay ass Eddie Murphy..now THAS nasty! and HE got the nerve to be asking for tests??? SHE should be the one asking for tests *cough* hiv…..and ive lost respect for Tracy Edmunds because knowing what he is doing to his child, she shouldnt even want to be associated with him…but i guess she has a thing for closetted jerks….Babyface wasnt no prize either. What a disgrace they are
and i gues MelB and tracy edmonds are prizes?
Before tracy met Babyface she was shit. Get off your fuckin High Horse…
Who the fuck is MelB…she is a pyscho broad who has a penchant to white men and women. She doesn’t even like you coons on here.
So, i don’t fucking owe her anything. And yeah, the broad is a freak and had numerous sexual exploits, that’s why she got her tubes tide or something.
Give me a fucking break…any women who thinks Melb is not a fault, needs a fucking reality check.
She is not a fucking saint….she is conniving, like many black women who are looking for a free ride.
I have no fucking respect for her…and if you claiming the fact that she is taking care of her baby is reason to applaud her you are a fucking idiot…
Let me remind you, she stands to make good money on that baby’s head…so, why would she shun that responsibility….
fuck outta here…many of you women on here need to go find your baby daddy and beg him for diapers….
you all should be fucking shot.
SOMEONE LIKE TRACEY EDMONDS SHOULDNT WANT TO BE WITH EDDIE AFTER WHAT HE DID TO MEL B, SHE IS TO CLASSY. THAT WHY SHE DIVORCED BABYFACE IN THE FIRST PLACE BECAUSE OF HIS BS.
WELL IF HE WANTED TO HIT IT HE SHOULD’VE USED A GLOVE.. GO ROUND STICKIN YO DICK UP IN PEOPLE RAW! U DUMN AZZ.
wow if what she said is true he is a true coward….and if it was a planned pregnancy it was probably a planned publicity stunt on his part just to get in the lime light again.
Scary is the shit and Eddfie Murphy’s FUgly ass should be happy that he’s even on her level. He ain’t nothing to be saught after.
We have only heard one side of the story. I will not pass any judgement until i hear what Eddie has to say.
My question to Mel B is this. You have been divorced for close to 8yrs or so, how come you haven’t had or planned to have kids with all the men and women you have slept with before Eddie? You have mentioned in your many interviews with UK tabloids that you are a man and woman eater. So i will conclude that you have had alot sexual relationships with alot of people.
Mel B is a hollywood whore. She looking for a quick buck and got it with Eddie.
Why would she claim to love him, plan a future together, married with children – but now man-bashes is assk, about his manhood, and his lifestyle. Whateva, she is a true skank from the UK. She is a bisexual, and she has the nerves to speak on Eddie. Man get the F** out of here, wit that shit.
She got played and got caught up! Handle your business and push on hoe!
I love Eddie to death, a true class act. He had every reason to believe the baby may not have been his (like ever man in the world that has a booty call). She really couldn’t believe they were going to get married and have more kids??? He already ready has Hollywoods starting NBA line up.
Eddie do you, and keep it movin. Mel B, go on tour with your hoes and con someone else.
#6 I don’t know why he would be fascinated by them being biracial, all his kids come out looking just like him with nappy hair. Yes alot of biracial kids come out with nappy hair with an all white mother, I just saying. Eddie do not make pretty kids, I’m sorry, no matter how cute the mothers r. Last time I heard, Tracey Edmonds was black, not biracial, and she isn’t about to get knocked up by Eddie, she probaly not even screwin hiz donkey looking azz, hope not.
#46 LMAO, told u lot of these negroes illiterate as shyt, that’s why black race stay at a standstill.
No.43 Dats Da Damn Truth, you sound like a damn fool. it takes two to make a baby and Eddie could have prevented this by simply using a condom. he is smart enough and old enough to know that if you sleep with a women unprotected the chances of getting pregnant are high… I don’t think that he would have her around his kids if he wasn’t planning on being with her. I think he is a control freak and realized that he couldn’t control her like he did Nicole, anf Tracy Edmonds is a damn fool, what women would want to be with a man who ignores his child regardless of the situation, if you all remember she was a viseo hoe when babyface met her.
She got three baby daddies and only was married ONCE.
She sounds dumb! Why would you plan a pregnancy when you’ve only been kicking it for a hot minute? That doesn’t sound right to me.
Eddie needs to get his shit together
PPL SHOULD REALLY GET TO KNOW THE PPL FIRST THEY CHOOSE TO HAVE BABIES BY…. AND THAT TAKES YEARS….
YEA I READ THIS ON ESSENCE.COM THE OTHER DAY AND THE WHOLE THING IS RATHER UNFORTUNATE, EDDIE SHOULD REALLY BE ASHAMED OF HIMSELF AS A PARENT HE KNOWS BETTER, SHE IS HIS FLESH & BLOOD AND TO DENY THAT SHOULD BE CAUSE FOR HIM GOING STR8 TO HELL, DAMN THAT…
