Was Eddie Murphy 'trapped' by Scary Spice?

Melbourne, Mar 14 : Actor Eddie Murphy believes that he had been 'trapped' by Spice Girl Melanie Brown into having a baby.

According to a US report, Murphy has reportedly told his friends that he believes he was tricked by Scary Spice, insisting that she had said that she was on birth control.

He also revealed that they had had sex only three times.

"What was supposed to be a casual relationship ended with her having his baby and taking him to court for millions," Daily Telegraph quoted a source as telling The National Enquirer.

However, the source also said that the 'Dr Dolittle' star does accept Angel is his daughter, but said that he won't see the little girl, because he doesn't want to set eyes on Mel.

"He says he will have to wait until Angel is older before he can get to know her without any interference from her mother," the source added.
