Congrats!

Eddie Murphy and his pregnant girlfriend, Paige Butcher, have gotten engaged.

 

A representative for the Beverly Hills Cop actor confirmed the news of their engagement to Page Six on Friday.

The news comes as the couple announced they were expecting their second child together – and Eddie’s 10th – last month.

The couple have been together since 2012 and  re already parents to a two-year-old daughter named Izzy.

An insider told PEOPLE last month that the couple were “very happy to expect another baby” and had “wished” for a younger sibling for Izzy.

They added:

“They live a pretty low-key life. They are all about family. Paige is very close with Eddie’s kids.

“They are a very special and happy family. They vacation and spend holidays together. Paige loves being a mom and is very involved. She takes her daughter to the park and for play dates.”

A few weeks after announcing their pregnancy, Australian actress Paige confirmed to the paparazzi that they were expecting a baby boy.

The Dr. Dolittle star shares Bria, 28, Miles, 25, Shayne, 23, Zola, 18, and Bella, 16, with his ex-wife, Nicole Murphy, who he split from in 2006.

He has a 29-year-old son, Eric, with Paulette McNeely and a 27-year-old son, Christian, with Tamara Hood.

He also has an 11-year-old daughter named Angel, who he shares with Mel B.
