The room was lined with candles and had a large red heart on the wall. Eric got down on one knee and proposed and Jasmin said yes!
Earlier this year, Eddie opened up about how he feels about his son dating Martin’s daughter.
The couple started dating in the summer of 2021 and Jasmin shared their relationship in an Instagram post for Eric’s birthday.
And while there are no details here about how they met, it can be assumed that they have known each other for a long time.
Their fathers have been friends for years and worked together on the films Boomerang and Life.
“They are both beautiful, they look great together,” the Coming To America star, 63, said.
Murphy and Lawrence, 59, even talk about their potential grandchildren.
“And it’s funny, everyone’s like, ‘How funny is that baby going to be?'” said the star of the Netflix sequel to Beverly Hills Cop 4.
