After she said “yes,” the two shared a sweet kiss.
Both Jasmin and Eric are the eldest children of Lawrence and Murphy, who have shared similar career trajectories and starred together in the movies Boomerang and Life.
In 2022, Jasmin told In Touch Weekly she met Eric through her uncle, saying: “It wasn’t even our dads, and they’ve done two movies together. They’re friends. I don’t even know. It’s crazy. But we met through my uncle, and we became really good friends.”
She added that they “bonded on a lot of things. Obviously, we have similar backgrounds, so we understood each other on a certain level.”
As far as their dads go, the Hollywood funnymen seem to be pretty happy their kids got together. In September, Lawrence told E! News, “It’s beautiful. They both are beautiful, young adults and they get along so well. Whoever would’ve thought that my child and Eddie’s child would get together? It’s just what it is.”
And in June, Murphy told CBS Morning that his son and Jasmin were “both beautiful, they look amazing together—and it’s funny, everybody’s like, ‘What, is that baby gonna be funny?’… Our gene pool is gonna make this funny baby.”
Here’s to the happy couple and their funny fathers-in-law to-be.
