Eddie Murphy is preparing to tie the knot!

On Friday, a rep for the actor confirmed the happy news to PEOPLE.

The 57-year-old actor’s partner, Paige Butcher, was seen sporting a large diamond ring while running errands in Los Angeles on Thursday. Butcher, 39, is pregnant with the couple’s second child — and Murphy’s tenth.

The mother of one was photographed in a casual black top that hugged her bump and black leggings which she paired with black sunglasses and black sneakers as she headed into a HomeGoods store to pick up a rug.

The Australian actress first debuted her baby bump in August while in Los Angeles.

A rep for the actor told PEOPLE in a statement, “Eddie Murphy and longtime girlfriend Paige Butcher are pleased to announce that they are expecting their second child in December.”

The couple, who have been together since 2012, already share 2-year-old daughter Izzy Oona. A source told PEOPLE the two “are very happy to expect another baby.”

They wished for a younger sibling for their daughter,” the insider said. “They live a pretty low-key life. They are all about family. Paige is very close to Eddie’s kids.”
