AceShowbiz - Eddie Murphy showed off his newborn son in a Christmas family portrait alongside all of his children.
On Tuesday, December 25, Murphy's eldest daughter Bria Murphy, 29, shared a family photo on Instagram, which featured the 57-year-old comedian in the middle of a family group holding his two-year-old daughter Izzy Oona, while his fiancee Paige Butcher cuddles their sleepy three-week-old son Max Charles, who was born at the end of November.
In the picture, the couple is surrounded by Murphy's other children: Eric, 29, his oldest son, whom he shares with Paulette McNeely, Christian, 28, the son he shares with Tamara Hood, Melanie Brown's 11-year-old daughter Angel, and his children with ex-wife Nicole Mitchell Murphy; daughters Bella, 16, Zola, 19, Shayne, 24, Bria and 26-year-old son Miles. The couples' mothers are also included in the festive portrait.
The photo, which Bria simply captioned "Merry Christmas!!!" marks the first time "The Nutty Professor" star has posed with all 10 of his children.
Murphy and Butcher were reportedly "very happy to expect another baby" a source told People magazine, after the engaged announced their pregnancy in August.
"They wished for a younger sibling for their daughter," the insider told the publication. "They live a pretty low-key life. They are all about family. Paige is very close to 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."
Eddie's son Max shares his middle name with his late uncle, comic Charlie Murphy who died of leukaemia aged 54 in April 2017.
