Report: DNA Test Shows Eddie Murphy Fathered Mel B.'s Baby

By Access HollywoodJune 22, 2007, 9:12 am PDT

LOS ANGELES, Calif. (June 22, 2007) -- The he said/she said appears to be over as a rep for Melanie Brown has confirmed to People magazine that Eddie Murphy is the father of the former Spice Girl's baby.

Results of the DNA test taken by Murphy on June 11 were reportedly received by Brown on Thursday.

"He's the baby's father, it's official. The baby is undoubtedly, 110 percent his," a source told People. "There was no doubt in people's minds anyways, least of all [Brown's]. It wasn't a surprise to her. She knew all along."

The 32-year-old singer gave birth to Angel Iris Murphy Brown on April 3. On the birth certificate, Brown listed the childs last name as Murphy.

Brown also has an 8-year-old daughter. Murphy has five children from his marriage to Nicole Mitchell Murphy and one from a previous relationship.

When asked about impending fatherhood in December, Murphy told a television reporter: "And I don't know whose child that is until it comes out and has a blood test. You shouldn't jump to conclusions, sir."

A rep for Murphy declined to comment on this latest report.

    "he who is without sin, cast the first stone". That was said by The Man Jesus. How can we judge people knowing that we are not perfect at anything we do. So It does not matter how big a wrong is or sin, it is all a wrong no matter how big it is. Stay true!

    I was right because Eddie didn't quite strike me like the kind of guy for my sweet innocent Mel B. My heart goes to Mel B. Can you imagine the embarrassment? I always fancied that girl and was very depressed when she got pregnant for Eddie. I just thought Eddie wasn't Mel B. type. Mel B is a home girl that should get married to a proper man.

    I think he denied the baby because of his romance with Tracey Edmond.

    I cannot understand people.If you dont want children..ABSTAIN!! If you do get caught up and the pregnancy occurs,do not disrespect yourself ,nor the other person by denying it.The only ones hurt are the innocents, the kids,because you KNOW as soon as they get old enough to understand it SOMBODY will tell them all the ugly details
