After a lengthy court battle with ex Eddie Murphy, Spice Girl Mel B has reason to celebrate – Murphy has been ordered to pay a whopping $10 Million in child support to the singer over the next 16 years:
Los Angeles, CA (CNS) – Eddie Murphy has been ordered to pay his ex-girlfriend Mel B $50,000 a month for child support to their 22-month-old daughter Angel Iris.An L.A. court ordered the 47-year-old funnyman to pay approximately $51,700 per month until Angel reaches 18 years old, which would total about $10.3 million.He has also finally agreed to see his daughter.Murphy and Mel B – real name Melanie Brown – have spent 15 months fighting in the Los Angeles courts. Both signed non-disclosure contracts, preventing them from discussing the settlements in public.Murphy originally questioned the paternity of the child, while publicly dumping the former Spice Girl in a 2006 impromptu interview, saying, “I don’t know whose child that is until it comes out and has a blood test. You shouldn’t jump to conclusions, sir.”DNA test proved that he is indeed the father.Angel Iris Murphy Brown was born on April 3, 2007, which is coincidentally also Murphy’s birthday. {Source}
I guess justice has been served. Yet, in saying that, many – including myself – will forever find it hard to look at Eddie in the same way again. What kind of person refuses to see their own daughter, even after the DNA test. SMH…
Your thoughts?
STILL CAN’T GET IT RIGHT AND WE HAVE BLACK PRESIDENT. SMH.
EDDIE YOU NEED TO STEP UP YOUR RESPONSIBILTIES AS A SO CALLED FATHER. MEL B. IDK WHAT SHE HAS DONE IN THE PAST TO YOU, THAT IS YOUR DAMN CHILD AND NO ONE SHOULD HAVE TO MAKE YOUR ASS PAY FOR CHILD SUPPORT. THAT IS YOUR CHILD AND YOU SHOULD WANT TO. GOT DAMN IGNORANT N****.
You would have think with or with out DNA test . . . a well known father of six would have DONE better . . .
Eddie, How you doing?
10 mil.. thats some b*******.. i mean he has to pay up.. but a 22 month old baby dont need no f***** 51.000 a month… they should have him set up a trust fund of 10 mil which would be released at 18 or 21.. cause who is gonna use that 51.000 a month now?? That gold diggin’ b**** is gonna spend all the childs money like there’s no tomorrow. It makes no sense to me. She’s be fine with like 5 G’s a month. anyway guess Mel f***** her way straight to the bank..
