Murphy also revealed that she bought herself a flashy new Mercedes in a post from earlier in the day. When TMZ approached her outside of the event, they asked if she had any info on the rumored sequel to "Coming To America," which she said she knew nothing about. Nicole had five children with comedian Eddie Murphy, who she married in 1993. The two divorced in 2006.
