Star of Dreamgirls Eddie Murphy has confirmed he is the the father of Mel B's child Angel Iris Murphy Brown who was born in April (crap name we know). It was only yesterday that Mel B started legal action to confirm the Hollywood star as the father of he baby.

Eddie Murphy released the statement through his publicist saying " He acknowledges paternity of the child, Angel, and has paid child support to Ms Brown as well as covering the expenses of her pregnancy." The statement continued that Eddie Murphy  " views this as a private matter and as such, will not be making any further comments about it" Well no court room drama on television then! Thank god for that lol.
