Eddie Murphy and his very new bride have allegedly split, according to shocking new reports.The Hollywood star and Tracey Edmonds wed in Bora Bora in French Polynesia on January 1st and have been planning to renew their vows on American soil after realizing the ceremony wasn't legally binding in the United States. But the second ceremony never took place and now the couple is no more, according to People magazine. "Extra" reports the first official statement from Murphy's reps: "After much consideration and discussion, we have jointly decided that we will forgo having a legal ceremony as it is not necessary to define our relationship further. While the recent symbolic union in Bora Bora was representative of our deep love, friendship and respect that we have for one another on a spiritual level, we have decided to remain friends." Murphy and Edmonds, who have been dating since 2006, have both been married before. Murphy divorced Nicole Mitchell in April 2006, while Edmonds ended her marriage to music mogul Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds in October 2005. In between his last marriage and his romance with Edmonds, Murphy had a brief fling with Spice Girls star Melanie Brown, who gave birth to the actor's daughter last year. Murphy had insisted that he was not the father of Browns daughter till a DNA test proved otherwise.
