When asked if he had any parenting advice for the new parents, Eddie joked that kids don’t really listen to advice anyway. Instead, he said children learn more by watching the example their parents set.
Eddie Murphy also made it clear that no matter how successful his career has been, his children are what matter most to him. “My legacy to me isn’t my work,” he said. “My legacy to me is my children.”
Jasmin Lawrence and Eric Murphy announced they were expecting earlier this year, months after quietly getting married. Meanwhile, Martin Lawrence previously shared how excited he was to become a grandfather, calling the moment a blessing.
