Eddie Murphy's picture with his ex-wife Nicole Murphy, their son and new daughter-in-law raised eyebrows as fans mocked the awkward posing
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Being at the same wedding as one's ex can be awkward. But that's not why a photo of Eddie Murphy with his ex-wife Nicole Murphy, their son and new daughter-in-law, is sparking outrage.
The 'Dream Girls' actor and Nicole were married for 12 years and have five children together. In 2005, she filed for divorce. Since their divorce, the former couple have co-parented harmoniously, and appeared in numerous photos with their children. None have evoked any strong negative reactions
For instance, in 2016, Eddie and his ex linked arms with their daughter Bria Murphy at the premiere of her film 'Amateur Night' as part of a group shot with their other daughter Shayne Murphy and the actor's long-time fiancee Paige Butcher.

But Murphy's latest family photo has stirred up sentiments online with several of actor's followers mocking him for the snap.
