Eddie Murphy’s baby daughter Angel Iris Murphy Brown was born on the 3rd of April, 2007. Coincidentally, Angel shares the birthday with her father, Eddie Murphy, as she was born on his 46th birthday. Eddie Murphy’s ex-partner, Melanie Brown, aka Mel B, is the mother of Angel Iris.
The comedian Eddie Murphy started dating Mel B, his baby mama in 2006, but before their daughter was born, the pair had already broken up. The cute Angel has got the last name of both of her parents, Murphy, from her father’s side and Brown from her mother’s side.
