Mel B Praises Eddie Murphy’s Co-Parenting 18 Years After Paternity Dispute Shook Fans

In a surprising twist, Mel B is now praising Eddie Murphy for his role as a co-parent—nearly two decades after their high-profile romance and bitter paternity battle. In a recent Us Weekly interview, the former Spice Girl shared that she and Murphy have successfully raised their daughter, Angel, who just turned 18. Fans were stunned—some didn’t even realize the two shared a child, given the intense public fallout when Murphy initially denied paternity in 2007. Mel B revealed their renewed relationship took time and healing, especially as she navigated trauma and coercive relationships. “I managed to do it bit by bit,” she said of rebuilding trust. Once fractured by tabloids and tension, their bond now reflects growth, maturity, and a quiet triumph in shared parenting.
