Coming 2 America actor Eddie Murphy, who welcomed his tenth child in 2018, said he loves fatherhood and how it has shaped his life.
American actor Eddie Murphy recently opened up about being a father of 10 kids and discussed how fatherhood has shaped his life.
According to Fox News, the 59-year-old actor said during a recent appearance on Marc Maron's WTF podcast, "I am going to be 60 in April and I have all these babies. I love fatherhood."
"The whole idea of being out there and doing three movies a year, that s**t is over... I found over and over again and along the way I realised that if you put your children first you never make a bad decision," he continued.
"When you hit a crossroads moment or you have got some s**t , you think, 'Well, what is best for my children?' If you go that route then you never make a bad decision," Murphy added.
The Coming 2 America alum also gushed over his kids, noting that he does not have "one bad seed."
"I am so blessed with my kids," "I don't have one bad seed. I don't have any like 'Oh you are the one.' I don't have any of that. My kids are so great, normal people -- and nobody is like the Hollywood jerk kid," said the Shrek alum.
Murphy recently starred in Coming 2 America, which premiered on Amazon Prime Video on March 4.
"My kids are smart and are trying to do stuff. I am blessed with my kids. I really, really got lucky," he added.
