The bride, 44, wore a fitted lace gown with a corsetted top by Tel Aviv-based brand Mira Zwillin, while the groom, 63, sported an off-white suit.

Reps for Murphy did not respond to Page Six’s request for comment about the nuptials.

Their surprise wedding comes shortly after the “Daddy Day Care” actor called the Australian model his “wife” during an interview with the New York Times’ “The Interview” podcast.

The pair have been dating since 2012 and got engaged in 2018.

By then, they had already welcomed their daughter, 8-year-old Izzy. Butcher gave birth to their son, Max, who is now 5, shortly after they got engaged.

Murphy has eight other children from four different relationships.

His first child, a son named Eric, was born in 1989. He shares him with his former girlfriend, Paulette McNeely.

He also fathered five children — daughters Bria, 34, Shayne, 29, Zola, 24, and Bella, 22, and son Myles, 31 — with ex-wife Nicole Mitchell Murphy, 56. They separated in 2005 after 12 years of marriage.

He welcomed a son named Christian with his ex-girlfriend Tamara Hood in 1990. Christian arrived between the birth of two of his kids — Myles and Bria — with Nicole.

Eddie welcomed his eighth child, a daughter named Angel, with Melanie Brown (yes — Mel B from the Spice Girls) in April 2007.

The comedian’s marriage to Butcher is his second, and her first. She does not have kids from prior relationships.

The pair have kept their relationship private over the years, but Butcher said Eddie was “very, very sweet and romantic” during an interview with Extra at the 2020 Golden Globes.
