After only knowing each other for one month, Eddie Murphy and former Spicegirl Mel B a.k.a Scary Spice are reportedly set to wed in September. The couple – who met at a party in Beverly Hills last month – have reportedly booked the plush Roosevelt Hotel, in Los Angeles, for their “dream wedding”. Mel, 31, and Murphy, 45 are reportedly planning to tie the knot in an intimate ceremony attended by just close family and friends.
However, the pair have drawn up a star-studded guest list, which includes Whitney Houston for their wedding party. A source told Daily Star newspaper: “Mel just wants her and Eddie’s close family to be there for the simple blessing. But they will be inviting their friends to a lavish wedding breakfast reception at the venue afterwards.”
Both Mel and Murphy have been married before. Murphy divorced his wife Nicole Mitchell Murphy – who he has five children with – in May after 12 years of marriage. Mel married dancer Jimmy Gulzar in 1998 but the couple got divorced three years later – they have a seven-year-old daughter Phoenix-Chi.
