WTF FILES: (UPDATE) EDDIE & TRACEY ALREADY OVER WITH.
Thursday, January 17, 2008

Another one bites the dust. Just two weeks after Eddie Murphy exchanged vows with Tracey Edmonds in a private—and, as it happens, not legally binding—ceremony in Bora Bora, the couple has separated, according to People.
According to the magazine, the duo called off their union just 14 days after their seaside Jan. 1 nuptials. The breakup followed a less than fairy-tale start, with first days of the newlyweds’ honeymoon marred by screaming matches and arguments that lasted the entire week. According to People, there are no plans for a reconciliation.
UPDATE: Here is the statement released from both camps:
“After much consideration and discussion, we have jointly decided that we will forego having a legal ceremony as it is not necessary to define our relationship further,” Murphy and Edmonds tell PEOPLE in an exclusive statement. “While the recent symbolic union in Bora Bora was representative of our deep love, friendship and respect that we have for one another on a spiritual level, we have decided to remain friends.” [ READ MORE @ PEOPLE ]
No comment. I’m just mad I wasted time on their wedding post, could have been working on something else.

They have issued a statement to People magazine:
Eddie Murphy and Tracey Edmonds have called it quits just two weeks after their intimate wedding, PEOPLE has learned exclusively.
“After much consideration and discussion, we have jointly decided that we will forego having a legal ceremony as it is not necessary to define our relationship further,” Murphy and Edmonds tell PEOPLE in an exclusive statement. “While the recent symbolic union in Bora Bora was representative of our deep love, friendship and respect that we have for one another on a spiritual level, we have decided to remain friends.”

Just another publicity stunt, these celebs need to get a life. They just hooked up no less than a year ago and already a wedding, doesn’t surprise me at all. Gosh, what people will do for the spotlight and Tracey is so pretty I think can do much better than Eddie anyway, wouldn’t wanna be wit a man that doesn’t wanna take responsilbility for his child, dead beat dad, what a turn off, seemed like such a unlikely pair from the start!!!

Eddie is great as an actor/comedian, but he’s a deadbeat and I think Tracey finally realized that. I’m just mad that people actually thinks this is news worthy with everything else going on in the world!

Someone has a secret, “We conceal aspects of ourselves that we think invite rejection, but ironically, the very act of secrecy makes us inaccessible to love. We think we’re hiding our secrets, but really, our secrets are hiding us.”

LMOA at this Crap, I ust posting a comment about them last week. Can we say way too fast to start, the relationship ending beofre it even started! Inside Edition said it is the fastest divorce in celebrity history! Well atleast the marriage wasn’t concidered valid in the US.

God don’t like ugly. I’m glad they broke up. I read on People.com he was screaming at Tracey and embarassing her on their honeymoon. If that is how he treated her on the honeymoon, imagine what would or could have happened during their marriage post honeymoon.Oh well, shes pretty….she can find somebody else….as for Eddie…he needs to be by his damn self! He milk and cookies anyway!

Doesn’t surprise me one bit.
I heard that Eddie was very controlling. Even with the first wife , Nicole Murphy, he would instruct his house staff to never look at her…
He is better off making Johnny Gill his wife…they are more suited for one another…

That’s what she get’s for marrying a gay man. Shame on her. It’s not like she needs his money.She’s a successful business woman on her own. I guess “image” is everything in the industry.

I knew it! I always thought it was odd when Tracey said that her kids hadn’t met Eddie yet and neither of them had their kids at the wedding. If they really intended to share their lives together the kids would need their stepmom/dad. Also I remember thinking they didn’t look sincerly happy in theri wedding pics. Oh well. Everyone makes mistakes.

If Tracey was willing to put on this charade of being “in love” with an obviously gay man, then she deserves what she gets. She is as much a publicity whore as he is and not for once will I ever believe she was genuine about this so-called relationship. And if she has wallowed in the sheets with him, she also deserves what she gets from that too.

I's married nah!!!
Thursday, January 17, 2008 /
I’m sorry, but i feel no sympathy for Tracey. That was a wedding we all knew would never last, but they surprised all of us…..only 2 weeks. i had my bet in for at least 1 year. Dang it, i lost money!!!!!

Eddie Murphy seems like he is a control freak and according to reports he yelled at Tracey in front of guests at their wedding! He is used to having his way and things fitting into his perfect life, and Tracey probably could not deal with his arrogance. Some women want to be married so badly that they overlook the obvious flaws that a man has. she should have known something was not right with him when he downplayed the whole Mel B situation. Johnny is probably thrilled.

I still want the scoop on why her and Babyface broke up. Nevertheless, from her to go from him to Murphy seemed strange in the first place. Then again, as time goes on I’m starting to think she’s a little weird, too. That pretty face may be hiding something. Weird.

See what money does to ppl. They couldn’t have spent the money on something more suiting. They chose to “play” husband and wife. Better yet Eddie could have paid his CHILD SUPPORT!

Tracie should of never left Babyface & Eddie should of never left Johnny Gill…lol!
But all jokes aside, this is just crazy. She got with Eddie when he had a baby on the way and how he just pubically ditched and humiliated Mel B would of made me think twice about his character. But Mel B. stood her ground and she is good right about now. Karma is just comming to bite both back in the butt–especially Eddie, thats why he didnt take home the Oscar for Dreamgirls. Nicole Murphy wasn’t playing when she was asked to comment (to Tracie) on Eddie’s engagement & Nicole said “Good Luck” but it was a “tone” in her voice when she said it. Nicole knows what’s up.
But another thing I dont understand is Eddie got the time to go over to Bora Bora, spend thousands of money on a wedding as well as $400,000 on a engagement ring, but cant seem to find the time to go see and meet his new baby girl Angel. And he wonders why these thing is his life keep happening. C’mon Eddie get it together.

Sad. Everyone called this one, but nobody expected it this soon. It was clearly a publicity stunt, because as nice as Tracey Edmonds usually dresses, that hideous piece of work she wore as a wedding dress set off all kinds of alarms that this was a complete and total sham. That and the fact that she was on his left and Johnny Gill was on his right… and where in the hell was Charlie Murphy?!? But I digress… it is quite unfortunate that this union failed to mature into something full of romance and companionship. But I am sure Babyface is glad that Mr. Murphy will have that much less contact with his son. He isn’t taking care of his own, and if he couldn’t get to Johnny Gill, who knows what might have occurred! The Lord works in mysterious ways…

Ya’ll crazy, lol. Eddie does have a strange pout to his mouth for a “man”. Guess that’s his “Sexy Come Hither Johnny Look”. They left their “spirits” in Bora Bora.
I sure wish Nicole writes a tell-all. I’d buy it!!!
