EDDIE MURPHY TO WED HIS SPICEY GIRL

Eddie Murphy is reportedly set to wed former Spice Girl Mel B next month. The couple, who have been dating for around four months, will marry in a lavish ceremony at the Hotel Roosevelt, in Los Angeles. It is believed Eddie, 45, and Mel, 31, are drawing up a guest list of star friends they want to attend the nuptials, including Mel's former bandmates Victoria Beckham, Geri Halliwell, Mel C and Emma Bunton. The 'Nutty Professor' actor's family are thrilled he is going to tie the knot with Mel, better known as Scary Spice. His older brother Charlie said: "Eddie seems happy with her and that's what's important."In August, Eddie and Mel enjoyed a Hawaiian holiday with their children at the exclusive Four Seasons Hotel, in Maui. It was reported at the time that the trip was intended to be a test to see how their off spring got on with one another and with their potential new step-parents. Eddie, who divorced ex-wife Nicole in April, has five children, while Mel has a seven-year-old daughter, Phoenix Chi, from her marriage to Jimmy Gulzar.
