In an account rivaling his twin turn in “The Nutty Professor,” Eddie Murphy allegedly revealed a hidden personality ugly enough to drive away would-be bride Tracey Edmonds. Insiders told the New York Post’s Page Six that shortly before legalizing their recent Bora Bora wedding, Eddie changed from charmer to a bossy bully who wanted his mother on their honeymoon.
“That was kind of the last straw,” Tracey’s friend told Page Six. “She was happy to sign a prenup — she has her own money. She was very accommodating. But then it was like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Eddie became very controlling and they got into a huge fight. He started screaming at her and grabbed her. She was scared.”
Representatives for both the former bride and groom refused to comment, reports Page Six. However, last week Eddie announced, “After much consideration and discussion, we have jointly decided that we will forgo having a legal ceremony as it is not necessary to define our relationship further ... we have decided to remain friends.” He didn’t elaborate on which personality this friendship included.
