Outdoors there is an infinity pool and spa, stone-tiled verandas, a wraparound patch of grass and an enormous portico fit for grand-scale leisure and suitable amenities such as fireplace, pool bath, wet bar, ceiling heaters and barbecue set up.
The couple have nine children altogether, she has five kids with Eddy Murphy and he has four from his two previous wives but it is not certain how many live with them. The mansion is so large that they can all share it without intruding into one another’s privacy.
