They're expecting their first child together next year. 

And Paige Butcher and Eddie Murphy were the picture of happiness on Friday as they stepped out in Los Angeles. 

Dressing her bump in a cosy sweater, the 36-year-old looked happy and relaxed as she strolled down the street holding hands with her Hollywood beau.

Wearing her blonde tresses pulled off her face in a neat ponytail, Perth-born Paige shunned make-up for the outing. 

She stayed warm in a beige sweater, pairing it with some comfortable jeans and sneakers. 

The model finished her look with a pair of sunglasses, foregoing accessories for the low-key outing. 

Meanwhile comedy legend Eddie stayed casual in an all-black outfit. The 54-year-old kept his eyes hidden beneath some sunglasses and wore his hood over his head.

While it is Paige's first child, Eddie is already father to eight others from previous relationships. 

The actor has five children with his former wife, Nicole, and one child each with former flames Mel B, Tamara Hood Johnson and Paulette McNeely.

Earlier this year a source told Daily Mail of his excitement at becoming a father for a ninth time.

'He couldn't be happier, the source told DailyMail.com, adding: 'Eddie really is a family man and loves all of his children, so he's so excited about having another one on the way.'

In 2014 Paige told of trying to keep her personal life private, describing how she was 'in a relationship with a celebrity'. 

In an interview with Vanity Fair the beauty explained why she chose not to use social media, telling the magazine: 'I’m in a relationship with a celebrity, so I felt like there’s already enough of me out there. 

'I felt like I was giving out too much information. I was giving people too much access. I like to keep as much private as possible now.' 

Private: Paige previously explained her decision to come off social media, revealing she felt she was giving too much of her personal life away
