I guess all the trannys and DQs got to be too much for her.
They were married for a long time though.She hung in there.
I got a hunch that the marriage agreement expired...Like Cruise and Kidman. Then again, the wife facilitated it...
She sure did ,because the gay, oops! I mean the" tranny" episode would have sent me hauling ass out of there..

I'm leterally surprised it last this long. I guess she could not compete
Just hope the children are all OK. THey are beautiful.
i'm thinking this divorce filing solves a NYPOST (I think) blind item from a few weeks ago...the one about the NJ actor that has 2 families in the same town...
I head one of her and Eddies first kids was actually fathered by Eddies brother and he took the kid as his own. Its an old rumor or something I read somewhere.
From imdb.com:
Haunted Mansion star Eddie Murphy and his wife Nicole are divorcing because of the pressure of a showbiz marriage, according to her pal Kimora Lee Simmons. The pair stunned Hollywood on Friday when former model Nicole filed for divorce, ending their 12 year marriage. Simmons - whose husband is hip-hop boss Russell Simmons - is equally shocked, but can understand how the break-up happened. She says, "We never would have thought anything like that would have happened. To be a high profile couple in the limelight. It's a lot of stress."
------------------------------------------------------------------------
I need to go hunt down an old blind item from a year or so ago - something about a record producer's model wife having an affair with another model and the husband didn't mind because he was into his own bi-thing as well?
At the time, the guesses were Kimora Simms and Tyra Banks but what if it was Eddie's wife?

Divorce buzz: Murphy a Beverly Hills flop
nydailynews.com
Friends of Eddie Murphy's wife, Nicole, aren't happy that she filed for divorce last week - but they aren't surprised, either.
"Frankly, I have no idea how their marriage lasted this long," one pal, who's known the couple since they wed in 1993, was telling us yesterday. "I mean, they both love their five children. Eddie is an amazing dad. But I think Nicole got fed up with other things."
Fed up with what?
"Eddie is a very reclusive guy," said the friend. "He likes dinner at home. When they do go out to a restaurant, he likes to have a private room."
Another friend remembered "a night where everybody was going on to the next party. Nicole really wanted to go along. Eddie wanted to go home.
"This is a young woman who spent most of the last decade having children. She had all the trappings of fame and wealth, but no real fun."
While it's unclear whether the couple signed a prenup, Nicole stands to seek her share of revenue from the string of movie hits Murphy made during their marriage.
Eddie, 44, is also said to have discouraged Nicole, 37, who used to model, from working.
"You make tradeoffs," said one of the friends. "I think this is an opportunity for her to breathe."
One source contends that Nicole may already be breathing easier with a new guy, now that she's separated.
Nicole's lawyer, Neil Hersch, didn't return a call yesterday.
Eddie's lawyer, Marty Singer, said, "I can't comment on the reason for their divorce. It's a personal matter."
But Singer was adamant that the "irreconcilable differences" Nicole cited in divorce papers had nothing to do with Eddie's infamous 1997 incident when police stopped Murphy's car while he was in the company of a transsexual prostitute.
The "Doctor Dolittle" star sued the National Enquirer and the Globe for $5 million each, charging that their stories about his "secret sex life" damaged his reputation and made him physically ill.
Murphy ended up dropping both suits.
His rep confirmed that the Enquirer paid him nothing. Then-editor Steve Coz said at the time that Murphy paid the Enquirer's legal costs.
Singer vowed his client would vigorously defend his good name against any new allegations. "I'm not going to comment on the [Enquirer] resolution," said Singer. "My client was satisfied by the result."

Eddie Murphy, Boomerang Bachelor
Eddie Murphy doesn’t waste any time. The 48 Hours star didn’t even wait that long before setting out on a hunt for hotties after his wife of 12 years filed for divorce last week. The Dr. Doolittle star showed up with a large entourage at Joseph’s in L.A. Monday night and Murphy—who survived an embarrassing episode with a transexual hooker a few years ago—kept his eyes trained firmly on the ladies. “He was flirting with every girl that came up,” says an eyewitness, “and there were lots of them!”
Back in the eighties, the hard-partying comic was a familiar presence at Hollywood’s hot spots, but over a decade of marriage and five children seemed to stall his partying streak. Last week his British wife, Nicole, filed flor divorce citing irreconcilable differences. But a string of recent hits like Shrek and Daddy Day Care seems to have perked up his libido as well as his bank account. “Eddie had this big grin and was all decked out in black with platinum jewelry. His whole crew was with him, buying bottles of Cristal while a bunch of women danced on his lap,” says our source. “I felt like I was back in the Rick James era.”
The fact that Murphy is signed on to co-star with Chris Rock in an as-yet-untitled project helmed by director Brett Ratner suggests his bachelor party has only just begun.
Murphy’s spokesman, Paul Bloch, declined to comment on the comic’s swinging shindig, but we suggest the ladies of Tinseltown—and anyone remotely resembling ladies—watch out.

Murphy makes merry with Mariah
Eddie Murphy and Mariah Carey hooked up Friday night in Miami.
The songbird - in town for an appearance at last night's MTV awards - heard her cell phone ring while she was holding a dinner party for friends at the Raleigh Hotel's penthouse. It was newly single Murphy, demanding she come over to Prive, where the $20-million movie man was hanging out with pals Quincy Jones and Ice T and the latter's cantilevering cutie, Coco.
Carey did decide to leave her party but may have taken too long at the makeup mirror. By the time she arrived, at 2:30, Murphy had been standing at the top of the stairs for 20 minutes, with his arms folded, saying: "Where the hell is she?"
Carey, who's ditched the tube tops and two-sizes-too-small cutoffs for more sophisticaed styles, finally showed up, looking sexy and relaxed, report our spies. Both stars immediately started whispering into one another's ears and nuzzling.
Back at a banquette with pals, Murphy, also looking relaxed, "held hands with her under the table," one nearby spywitness adds.
By 3:30, the pair had slipped out the back door unnoticed (perhaps driven by a pesky drag queen named Wanda who suddenly snapped at Ice T, "Stay away from my man!"). They were holding hands as they slid into the backseat of a Mercedes, and zipped over to the five-star Hotel Setai.
Our helpful spy, who followed them, says: "They were sitting in the car 15, 20 minutes until nobody was on the street and then they went in together."

You know,I am one of the people who believes that when someone like Eddie( (meaning the tranny incident, etc.) is in the process of a divorce I wait for the court papers to see what his wife's reason was.
But hooking up with Mariah is not doing him any good because rumors use to swirl about the baseball player Derek Jeter's preferences and then he was alledgedy hooked up with Mariah.
Unless Eddie is trying to make a record,these photos of him and Mariah are suspect,at least to me.

Seats of power
Eddie Murphy's wife, Nicole, may have filed for divorce from the "Beverly Hills Cop" star — but she and her new beau still aren't averse to dropping Eddie's name.
Nicole and businessman Alan Daniels, whom she's dating, came looking for a good time at Tuesday's Bunny Chow party at Cain.
Finding all the dance-floor tables occupied, Daniels informed one of his fellow patrons, "I want your table."
The patron said no, to which he responded, "Don't you know who we are?"
Another pal piped up, "She is Eddie Murphy's wife."
A surprised staffer muttered, "Not anymore she isn't."
After an awkward silence, the table's occupants shifted to the bar.
That was a good thing for the owners of Cain. We hear that Daniels may be a big investor in a possible spinoff of the club, keeping with the Genesis theme, a restaurant named Abel.

Murphy Calls Up Pre-Nup As Divorce Heats Up
Funnyman Eddie Murphy is recalling a 12-year-old pre-nuptial agreement with his estranged wife Nicole as their divorce gets messy. In court papers filed by the Shrek star, Murphy insists the couple's "premarital agreement" is "valid and enforceable" and he intends to use it to make sure he doesn't lose a valuable chunk of his fortune to his soon-to-be ex. And the bitter comedian is calling for his and Nicole's kids to be kept away from his estranged wife's new man, businessman Alan Daniels. In the divorce papers, he insists, "Nicole Murphy shall be restrained and enjoined from having the children in the physical presence of Alan F. Daniels." The couple, who split in August, will also be battling over two New York homes, worth a combined $37 million, and a Beverly Hills, Los Angeles estate, worth upwards of $10 million.

Good lord Eddie has more money then he needs. Just give her some!
She's kept quiet about the trannies. Pay the lady you've humiliated her enough!
He'll pay for sex outside their marriage and is being a tightwad with her???? Give me a freakin break!
12 year Prenup...and that's exactly how long Eddie's marriage lasted...Tom Cruise's marriage lasted 10 years and the prenup was for 10 years...then HE filed. (Takes notes) Nobody needs to ever question whether these marriages were scams or not...

I always thought his wife was so pretty....you would never know she had 5 kids by looking at her but I heard her new guy is a bad guy who went bankrupt and wasted millions on some internet investment thing. I also always heard Nicole had her first kid w/ Eddies bro but Eddie took it as his own and married her......maybe that is what started the contract in the first place...he covered her and she covered him....
Also...I heard the same thing about Newman and Woodward....Did they have kids ever?
Actually a pre-nup in any state of the U.S cannot have a term on it(wether it be 2,5 or 10 years.
.What Eddie is calling for is that the judge re-inforces the pre-nup agreement that was signed before they got married.When Donald Trump divorce both his previous wives that was the first thing he asked the judge to do and all the other wealthy divorcee usually do.
So does any one who has more assets in a relationship to begin with.Only Joan Lunden formerly of Good Morning America was not so lucky.She had to pay her ex big bucks.However,Nicole will get more than enough money.They were married in the state of New York and she will recieve accordindly to the laws of the state.It is not like in California where they have a no-fault divorce proceeding.She will be taken care of.
And the guy she is keeping company with was alledgedly involved in some money laundering and I think most people would want their probably vulnerable family or ex be kept away.

Saw this post on alt.gossip.celebrities......
Nicole Murphy's boyfriend, Alan F. Daniels is famous for screwing
people, both personally and professionally. Ask anyone who was in
Atlanta from the mid-1990's until around 2001.
Professionally - He is great at bullshitting people, taking what he can
and moving on. He started a company called RealEstate.com and used his
charm to raise (and steal) a lot of money - millions. He bled the
company to death with his spending on cars, homes, trips, office space,
white women, etc. He lacks an understanding of how to make a business
work, but he can sell - like he's selling his bullshit to Nicole. In
the end the last of the employees were left with no paychecks right
before Christmas. Many of the investors sued him.

details, check out

Also check out http://www.conway.com/ssinsider/webpick/wp010108.htm
or go to fuckedcompany.com and search on RealEstate.com
He was basically forced to leave Atlanta because everyone knew he was
full of shit. He used his money to buy favor, usually tipping a
restaurant server 80%. He never finished college and always had a chip
on his shoulder about it. He hasn't had another business since
Realestate.com because everyone knows it would crash.
Personally - His first wife, who is rarely mentioned was a Black woman
who he married because she got pregnant, but when she lost the baby he
divorced her. Next he moved onto nothing but white women, one of the
main reasons was to have beautiful children. He got married again to a
white woman and had twin boys. Soon he was fucking around on her with
plenty of white women including his assistant. He got divorced and
had to use a pretty strong divorce lawyer in Atlanta. The second wife
is living large. Then it was white woman after white woman then he got
one of them pregnant and had a daughter. They moved to Los Angeles and
she called the police because he was beating her. Of course she
changed her mind and they decided to "work it out."
I guess she didn't think that Nicole Murphy and her potential millions
would come along. Alan hasn't been with a Black woman in years. He
has probably burned through a lot of his money, so he needs to find a
new source of income. He has some rich, white babymamas who have no
real skills so they need the dollars. Nicole is the perfect solution.

He was basically forced to leave Atlanta because everyone knew he was
full of shit. He used his money to buy favor, usually tipping a
restaurant server 80%. He never finished college and always had a chip
on his shoulder about it. He hasn't had another business since
Realestate.com because everyone knows it would crash.
Personally - His first wife, who is rarely mentioned was a Black woman
who he married because she got pregnant, but when she lost the baby he
divorced her. Next he moved onto nothing but white women, one of the
main reasons was to have beautiful children. He got married again to a
white woman and had twin boys. Soon he was fucking around on her with
plenty of white women including his assistant. He got divorced and
had to use a pretty strong divorce lawyer in Atlanta. The second wife
is living large. Then it was white woman after white woman then he got
one of them pregnant and had a daughter. They moved to Los Angeles and
she called the police because he was beating her. Of course she
changed her mind and they decided to "work it out."
I guess she didn't think that Nicole Murphy and her potential millions
would come along. Alan hasn't been with a Black woman in years. He
has probably burned through a lot of his money, so he needs to find a
new source of income. He has some rich, white babymamas who have no
real skills so they need the dollars. Nicole is the perfect solution.

Actually a pre-nup in any state of the U.S cannot have a term on it(wether it be 2,5 or 10 years.
.What Eddie is calling for is that the judge re-inforces the pre-nup agreement that was signed before they got married.When Donald Trump divorce both his previous wives that was the first thing he asked the judge to do and all the other wealthy divorcee usually do.
So does any one who has more assets in a relationship to begin with.Only Joan Lunden formerly of Good Morning America was not so lucky.She had to pay her ex big bucks.However,Nicole will get more than enough money.They were married in the state of New York and she will recieve accordindly to the laws of the state.It is not like in California where they have a no-fault divorce proceeding.She will be taken care of.
And the guy she is keeping company with was alledgedly involved in some money laundering and I think most people would want their probably vulnerable family or ex be kept away.

Uhh, Queenie...Some prenups can be drafted under what is called a "sunset clause" that is a prenup drawn up with a possible 10, 12 year varying time of expiration. It depends on the couple's agreement or "arrangement."
When the expiration date is reached, either a new prenup can be drafted, original lists of assets can be readjusted(a spouse may decide to want to give more compensation), if the couple is still in love...or I think as we are seeing in certain cases...it's time to end the arrangement.

Does this woman at least get one house? Or does she have to go on public assistance and find low income housing.
No idea how reliable, but what the heck.

Is Eddie Murphy Gay?
Posted in: Eddie Murphy , Gays , Gossip , Rumor Mill
And is his boyfriend Johnny Gill from New Edition?
The ex-girlfriend of New Edition and LSG singer Johnny Gill is now speaking out about her recent split up with the singer. She tells Atlanta Gossip, (AG) reporter Tiffany Long that Johnny is struggling with his sexuality and that Hollywood has put pressure on him to be straight.
“Johnny and I broke up earlier this year after I became curious about his friendship/relationship with actor/comedian Eddie Murphy,” she said. “Johnny and Eddie have always been very close friends, but I could not compete with their relationship. It was strange...I can’t even explain it,” she tell Atlanta Gossip.
Other sources tell (AG) that Johnny Gill is actually living in a guest house on Eddie Murphy’s property in CA. A posting on taken from blackvoices.com entertainment forum says this: Rumors are circulating throughout Hollywood about the Eddie’s divorce battle, I was talking to an industry friend last night 08/15/05, she said, Nicole got sick of putting up with him and Johnny Gill.
People had warned her yrs. ago about the downlow rumors, even one of her close family members, but she chose not to believe it until she witnessed it, Eddie had got to the point where he didn’t care, he often told her, he was the breadwinner and to stop asking him stupid questions about where he was going and who he was with.
He became so brazen, Johnny came over to their house every holiday, sitting at the head of the table with Nicole and the kids. Tevin Campbell, Sugar Ray, Tyler Perry and Shemar Moore are also heavily involved in this scenario, they tried to recruit Mike Tyson (when he had money) but it wasnt his scene. Johnny is pathetic, he was with all these men and did not benefit, before he reunited with New Edition, he was so broke, he lived in Sugar Ray’s Guest house and I heard his wife wasnt too happy about it.
Everything seems plausible except for the Mike Tyson part.

Estrange-ly kind words for Murphy
The bad news is that Nicole and Eddie Murphy are in the middle of a bareknuckle divorce fight.
But the good news is that Nicole, whose 12-year-old marriage to Murphy produced five children, apparently approves of her estranged hubby's rumored new girlfriend, "Access Hollywood" weekend anchor Shaun Robinson.
The 44-year-old movie star and comedian has been linked to everyone from Mariah Carey and Robin Givens to - embarrassingly - a cross-dressing hooker with whom he was found by the LAPD in 1997. (Murphy wasn't arrested, and has said he was helping "her.")
"At least he's got a good one this time," the 37-year-old Nicole was overheard confiding to her boyfriend, Atlanta businessman Alan F. Daniels, over a late lunch this week at the Fred Segal store in L.A.
Her husband doesn't feel the same about her choice in men. According to published reports, Daniels is named in the divorce papers. "Nicole Murphy shall be restrained and enjoined from having the children in the physical presence of Alan F. Daniels," Eddie's divorce petition states.
While a Lowdown spy listened from the next table, Nicole went on: "Eddie was Shaun Robinson's date at the 'Access Hollywood' 10th-anniversary party, and they also went to a Dave Chappelle show together. And I heard she's been to the house a few times."
The battling Murphys have a $10 million-plus estate in Beverly Hills - just a fraction of the assets in play.
My spy told me: "Nicole's tone was very 'good riddance.' She is so over him. She looks amazing. And she and her boyfriend were all over each other."
Yesterday, Eddie's PR rep, Paul Bloch, declined to comment on the Robinson connection. But a flack for "Access Hollywood" told me: "Shaun and Eddie are good friends, that's it."
I think we know what that means.

Page Six
March 2, 2006 -- EDDIE Murphy's ongoing divorce battle could threaten to open the trannie closet from his past - particularly if information from a private eye once retained by the "Beverly Hills Cop" star falls into his estranged wife's hands.
Last August, Nicole Mitchell, Murphy's wife of 13 years, filed for divorce citing "irreconcilable differences." Our source says Mitchell, who's now being represented by Christian Slater's divorce attorney Glenn Buzard, is considering arguing that Murphy breached their prenup agreement.
If she fights the prenup, the reason may indirectly relate to the 1997 incident in which West Hollywood police questioned Murphy for driving in his car with a transvestite prostitute. The scandal, which involved a Samoan streetwalker named Atisone Suiuli, prompted several other cross-dressing hookers to sell stories to the tabloids about their alleged meetings with the actor. Murphy has denied any solicitation for sex occurred.
In Essence magazine, Mitchell recently spoke of "the incident," saying, "[Murphy] told me there was this person on the corner crying, so he stopped to help. But I'm thinking, 'Well, why the hell did you let them get in the car?' " Murphy has claimed he has "emptied" his wallet on other occasions to help out hookers.
Paul Barresi, a private detective who claims he was hired for damage control by Murphy when the scandal broke, tells Page Six: "I called [Murphy attorney] Marty 'Bull Dog' Singer and told him I could round up all the transsexuals alleging sexual dalliances with Murphy." And they would all recant their stories.
"In less than 10 days," Barresi says, "I got them all to sign sworn, videotaped depositions, stating it wasn't Murphy himself, but rather a look-alike, who they'd encountered - with the exception of Suiuli." In 1998, she fell to her death from her L.A. roof.
Asked to comment about Barresi, Singer said, "I'm not going to comment on what we did on that case. I can't comment on whether [Barresi] was retained or not. If I hire a private investigator, it is privileged information. One way or the other, the matter was resolved to our satisfaction. We sued the tabloids and a couple of the transvestites who allegedly made up these stories. And they did recant their stories."
In 1997, Murphy dropped a $5 million lawsuit against the National Enquirer for running a story told by one of the he-shes, conceding that it "did not publish its article with malice, or recklessly."

This is really such a sad story. At best, under all circumstances supported by facts, Eddie Murphy might be bisexual, possibly gay. That does not make him a bad person. In the age of so many people equally as famous and as rich as Eddie, he does not need to hide these facts. Eddie does not need any woman to act as a beard. Ellen, Rosie, Elton, etc have made this possible for people now to lead an open life. It is a terrible thing and so weighty on one's mind to be always on the alert/lookout that someone should know who you really are. I wish Eddie well. I have seen nothing published of his divorce settlement, but with so many children, his ex-wife must have received an enormous amount of money and will continue to receive a generous stippend each month.

I don't think he needs a beard, either. But he also can't go running around telling everyone he's gay or bi, either. There would be an enormous backlash with his fans(many of them black, and it's almost taboo for a person of color to come out..look at Luther Vandross(RIP)). Since he is also doing children's movies, it also would torpedo his movie roles.

Also let's not forget, Eddie Murphy originally built his career making fun of Gays. His early standup was highly Hetero...and he got in trouble and was labeled, Anti-Gay(most here are probably too young to remember that). Think of the huge backlash he would have if he came out, being previously married and conveying the image of a straight, hetero, family man? Naw...Would not be a good thing for him to come out, or even admit to being bi...and he knows it.
Eddie Murphy & Scary Spice: Family Time
FRIDAY SEPTEMBER 15, 2006 07:45AM EST
People.com
Eddie Murphy's annual family vacation in Hawaii is always the same: just a little R&R for the actor and his five children, ages 4 to 16, at his favorite $10,700-a-night luxury suite at Maui's Four Seasons Hotel.
Except this year, he brought along someone new who's been spending a lot of time with him lately: singer Melanie Brown – also known to '90s pop fans as Scary Spice of the Spice Girls – and her 7-year-old daughter Phoenix Chi, PEOPLE reports in its new issue.
During the weeklong trip in late August, the party of eight bonded while lounging poolside in private cabanas and dining out together at the island's branch of Spago.
Brown even took the entire blended brood by herself to the beach one afternoon to go body surfing and boogie boarding. Says one onlooker: "There was a lot of togetherness between the families."
Could they be one big, happy family soon? Murphy – who divorced his wife of 12 years, Nicole Mitchell, in April – met the Leeds, England-bred Brown, who split from dancer Jimmy Gulzar in 2000, at a party in June. Since then they have kept their relationship quiet, but it's no secret that they're smitten.
At a Fourth of July BBQ Murphy hosted at his Beverly Hills home, the pair "were very loving and cute together," says a source.
And Murphy, 45, recently escorted Brown, 31, to his favorite haunt, L.A.'s Laugh Factory, where "they were very cozy," says a witness. Says Brown's mother, Andrea: "They are both very happy."
And quickly getting serious. The British singer is spending more time at her L.A. house to be close to the actor. Murphy – who is earning early Oscar buzz for his turn in Dreamgirls – already has his family on board.
"(Eddie) seems very happy with her, and that's what's important to me," says Murphy's big brother Charlie. "He's in a good place. If she does that (for him), then that's great."

Murphy – who divorced his wife of 12 years, Nicole Mitchell, in April – met the Leeds, England-bred Brown, who split from dancer Jimmy Gulzar in 2000, at a party in June. Since then they have kept their relationship quiet, but it's no secret that they're smitten.
At a Fourth of July BBQ Murphy hosted at his Beverly Hills home, the pair "were very loving and cute together," says a source.
And Murphy, 45, recently escorted Brown, 31, to his favorite haunt, L.A.'s Laugh Factory, where "they were very cozy," says a witness. Says Brown's mother, Andrea: "They are both very happy."
And quickly getting serious. The British singer is spending more time at her L.A. house to be close to the actor. Murphy – who is earning early Oscar buzz for his turn in Dreamgirls – already has his family on board.
"(Eddie) seems very happy with her, and that's what's important to me," says Murphy's big brother Charlie. "He's in a good place. If she does that (for him), then that's great."
