Martin Lawrence’s oldest daughter, Jasmin, and Eddie Murphy’s eldest son, Eric, are engaged after more than three years of dating.

Over the weekend, the couple shared a joint post on Instagram of the special moment when Eric got down on one knee and popped the question.

“11.27.2024. We’re engaged!!” they captioned the clip.

“God truly blessed us with a love that feels like destiny. We couldn’t be more excited for this next chapter. Special thank you to everyone who made this moment so beautiful!!”

In the video, Eric walked Jasmin into a room that was covered in white rose petals and lined with bouquets of white and light pink roses and lit candles.

As they walked down the rose-petal-covered aisle, the pair stood in front of a red heart before Eric pulled out a diamond ring and asked Jasmin to marry him.

After she said yes, the couple kissed, hugged and posed for photos together.

Several stars congratulated Eric, 35, and Jasmin, 28, on their engagement in the comments section of their post.

“You did that, bruhhh‼️ Congrats to both of you‼️,” wrote comedian Affion Crockett.

“Absolutely beautiful! Congratulations!!,” added Real Housewives of Atlanta star Claudia Jordan.

Eric and Jasmin first revealed they were dating in the summer of 2021 when the latter shared a sweet birthday post to her “love” on Instagram.

It’s unclear how the pair met but their comedian fathers have been friends for years and worked together on the hit movies Boomerang and Life.

Murphy, who is a dad to 10 children, shares Eric with ex-girlfriend Paulette McNeely, while Lawrence shares Jasmin with his first ex-wife, Patricia Southall.

In June 2022, the Martin star, 59, joked he was going to “try” to get the Nutty Professor actor, 63, to pay for their kids’ future wedding.
