Martin Lawrence and Eddie Murphy have all the ingredients for a real-life romantic comedy.

The Bad Boys for Life star, 57, joked about his daughter Jasmin Lawrence potentially conceiving a "comedy super-baby" with Eddie's son Eric Murphy on Friday's episode of Jimmy Kimmel Live! after their kids went Instagram official last year.

"We haven't talked about it," Lawrence said of him and Murphy, 61. "We kind of just stay out of their business and let them do their own thing, and respect their thing."

He also admitted that he's willing to put aside tradition to have the groom's father take care of their potential wedding, joking with Kimmel, 54: "I'm gonna try to get Eddie to pay for it."

Eric, 32 revealed his relationship with Jasmin, 26, in June 2021, sharing a selfie of the two of them. "Head over heels in LOVE with YOU," he captioned the post.

Jasmin posted some more loved-up photos the next month, wishing her boyfriend a happy birthday. "Happy birthday, my love! I'm so incredibly blessed to know you, to love you, and to have you by my side," she wrote. "Cheers to many more blessings, laughs, and beautiful memories! I love you so much!!"

Martin and Eddie first appeared together in the 1992 comedy Boomerang and again in Life (1999). Eddie was also in attendance at Martin's 2010 Beverly Hills wedding where he married Shamicka Gibbs, whom he divorced in 2012.

Martin Lawrence is worth 110m. Eddie is worth 200m. He is thinking since Eddie is richer he can afford it better.

Jeez, maybe in keeping with tradition there will be a shooting either before or concurrent with the ceremony.

No one is responsible for their name but.... In general, never marry anyone named Shamicka.

I think it was Ron Burgundy who said, "That went south quickly."

One reason the bride’s family pays is because the bride (and/or her mother) want to have a lot of say over the particulars of the event. If the Groom pays he might decide to go with his buddy with an iPhone 13 for the photographer, a Carvel Ice Cream Cake for the Wedding cake, White Castle for catering (two sacks per guest), and two kegs of beer (foreign/domestic) and a couple cases of Coca-Cola for teetotalers, all in the church basement.

Based upon net worth they should do a two to one split for Murphy and Lawrence.

When my parents brought us on a fab trip to a wonderful condo in st Thomas my mother sent my father out with some of us to get food for the week. A former marine officer, engineer naval academy from a nice family he came back with a case of grape soda, two bags of heath bars and a bottle of non homogenized milk.

Ya.

Of course there are many reasons not even including the above

Tell the guy to just show up you’ll take care of everything. The only thing a guy needs to do is set a date or agree on a date
