I think that Eddie Murphy and former wife, Nicole, also have a son named Myles, but do not know his age.

I was thinking the same thing – Miles is 14.

Thinking out loud, if Eddie and Tracey Edmunds get married, with his 6 kids, possible 7th on the way and her two children, they will have a very large brood of 8 or 9… Good luck with that!
