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.
Honey, MISS JOHNNY GILL WAS TIRED OF BEING THAT “SIDELINE HO”… HE WASN’T ABOUT TO STAND BY AND LET HIS MAN BRING HOME YET ANOTHER WOMAN… LMAO
not suprised………saw it coming
i think i’m #2! but they were def. a sham anyway! goodday
He’s gay…………….he needs to just keep it real!
Tracey, go on back to your baby daddy.
All I have to say is….I told you So
Disturbing…
i think im 4 wooooo probaly 5 by now but whatever lol
VERYYYYY STUPID EDDIE ……..i cant stand that man….cant he keep a woman for once !!!!!!!!
Over- REALLY?
lol Angel, I just hope we ain’t wasting on our time on this post cos if they start saying tomorrow that they still married one of them is gon get cut. I’m just surprised it took Tracey this long to realize that her man was a butt-eater.
2 stupid rich, grown folks. Dumb and dumber.
one word – PUBLICITY
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.”
if Johnny Gill was the BEST MAN….this was DOOMED from the jump!
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!!!
I’m so surprised(sarcasm)!!! Yea right, I knew this was going to happen (I hate to be negative) but we all know Eddie is gay. I knew that since Boomerang lol
Not really news to me,I would have worked things out with Mel B, the black british women have a way of turning a brotha on…
That sucks. Only 14 days?!
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!
I agree with #13 they went through with this whole ordeal just for the PUBLICITY. This was clearly a publicity stunt I dont why I wasted my time reading articles on them I could have been studying.
No, Seriously, WTF????
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.”
How interesting and fitting.
I was just watching this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tq2kJ56hSqo
Black marriages have become a JOKE in this society.
What was the point? They knew they were having issues long before their “wedding”. Silly rabbits.
I knew they wouldnt last this should be in the hot mess files
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.
He must be a real asshole…Ah well.
seriously who would want to be married to this fuker?? good riddance.
I co-sign #2….I am not surprised at all!
What a waste!!
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…
LMAO @ the first comment.
As far as the relationship being over…whatev. Now Tracy is on to the next millionaire.
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.
HE IS SO GAY
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.
Maybe she didn’t want to jump on one foot and bark like a dog…hmph
Eddie Is An Ugly Mofo Anyways Besides he likes dudes
Eddie has never been cute He is getting old and grumpy and he don’t want nothing to do with a child thats his. He is out to prove something but he needs to sit his old ass down.
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’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!!!!!
I hate to say it but this is what happens when people rush into things quickly….And why does Eddy always hold his mouth like that?
That was some BS, they just used people.com for the check they recieved for the exclusive and went there seperate ways.
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.
Im not surprised!!! There both a DAMN JOKE TO ME!
I hope he’s still piping that lol
Everybody in the loop knows what Eddie Murphy is into. He likes to choke women, get golden showers, and he really likes being defecated on smh lol
lol I knew it was not gonna last.
I couldn’t understand why Tracey wanted to be with him after he didn’t provide for Mel B child. Anyways I didn’t believe it to begin with. People please know who your marrying I am sure Eddie yelled at her before.
Watch for the signs.
LMAOOO@ The first comment!
#1 u a fool for that one……….yeah their excuse sounds suspect…how do you go from all in love and married to chillin and saying “we can be friends” like it was some high school relationship uh uh…i dont believe you eddie…i love your movies but you are verrrrryyyyy suspect,either this is publicity or homeboi has got a he/she on the side lol.
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.
Havent read all of the comments but………………………….
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!
UMMM LETS SEE. ANYONE WITH TWO EYES AND EARS SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER THAT THIS FOOLISHNESS. THEY DIDNT MAKE A BELIEVABLE PAIR, THEY GOT TOGETHER TOO SOON, THEY GOT ENGAGED TOO SOON, THEY GOT MARRIED TOO SOON, THEYRE NOW DIVORCED OR SEPARATING TOO SOON. WAS THIS A WASTE OF SPACE TO WRITE ABOUT OR WHAT. NEXXXXXXTTTTTTT!!!
I actually thought they would last, being that I don’t know them personally. She was talking about him in a magazine interview like they were so in love.
Both of them are IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can see Eddie screamin and actin like a lil bitch.
Honestly, this is no surprise.
mel b said his life was “disturbing” hmmmmmmm….tracey better had run…he looks sickly to me
