Murphy doesn't accept parental responsibilities? · 2007-08-07 15:03
Eddie Murphy confirmed that he is the father of Melanie Brown's baby. A day after the former Spice Girl's lawyer complained that Murphy isn't accepting his parental responsibilities.
"He has not indicated in his statement or to us that he plans to visit the baby," attorney Gloria Allred said Saturday.
Brown's primary concern is that Murphy "see his child, spend time with her, hold her, love her and bond with his daughter," Allred said.
Murphy, 46, "always has and will continue to honor his responsibilities as a father," according to a statement released Friday by his publicist, Arnold Robinson.
"He acknowledges paternity of the child Angel and has paid child support to Ms. Brown, as well as covering the expenses of her pregnancy," Robinson said.
Murphy considers the matter private and planned to have no further comment, he said, MSNBC reports.
