Eddie Murphy, 63, Lives Happily With His Ten Children in the Mansion He Devoted Half His Life To

Eddie Murphy, renowned for his iconic roles in movies like “Coming 2 America,” occupies two contrasting worlds in his latest film—the lavish royal kingdom of Zamunda and the ordinary life he once longed for in Queens, New York, reminiscent of a contemporary rapper’s lifestyle.

Born into public housing in Brooklyn, New York, Murphy’s journey took a turn when he rose to fame on “Saturday Night Live,” launching a successful solo career in stand-up comedy and acting that brought him a life of affluence.

Beyond his famed $15 million island in the Bahamas, the 59-year-old comedian currently calls a custom-built $20 million residence in Beverly Hills his home, living in luxury with his family.
