Michael Strahan and Nicole Murphy
"Hollywood Exes" reality star, Nicole Murphy, 46,
who is the ex-wife of actor/comedian, Eddie Murphy, has called off
her engagement to former football player and current talk show host,
Michael Strahan, 42. The two were an item for the past 5-years,
making many appearances together, but trouble has surfaced.

TMZ stated Murphy received a tip that twice married
Strahan was cheating on her at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Los
Angeles. Murphy is said to have gone to the hotel when the alleged
incident occurred back in January and banged on his door, launching
into a tirade for 20-minutes, as Strahan refused to let her into the
room.

TMZ reports Murphy repeatedly yelled at the closed
suite door, "Is Michael from 'Kelly and Michael' in there' waking up
guests on the floor. Hotel security removed her from the premises,
due to the loud disruption to their guests. Murphy has found out
what a lot of women do regarding dating famous men, many of them
cheat. It's a shame her 13-year marriage to Eddie Murphy ended. They
were together for 15-years and have five children.

The comedian gave her $15,000,000 in a divorce
settlement, but lost $7,000,000 to an investment scam that resembled
a ponzi scheme. Since that time she has experienced financial
trouble regarding her mortgage and tax issues with the IRS. The
reality show "Hollywood Exes" has been a resurgence for Murphy,
bringing her new income, albeit a moderate sum and fame.
