[QUOTE=Perdita;641626]Mel B and Eddie Murphy have reportedly settled their legal dispute regarding their one-year-old child.

The pair had entered into a war of words after Murphy denied that her daughter Angel Iris was his on Dutch television.

Murphy later took a DNA test which confirmed that he was the father.

According to RadarOnline, the actor and former Spice Girl have now settled their legal dispute, with Murphy being granted visitation but not custody rights to the child.

Mel B recently confirmed that she would be interested in becoming a judge on the X Factor.



Eddie Murphy has reportedly been told to pay £7 million in child support to the daughter he had with Melanie Brown.

The News Of The World claims that Murphy has been ordered to pay £35,000 a month until Angel Iris reaches the age of 18.

Although both Murphy and the former Spice Girl have signed non-disclosure contracts preventing either from discussing the settlement in public, sources said that the actor has agreed to see his 20-month-old child.

A friend said: "Mel is delighted that the case is over as she just wanted what was right for her girl. It was never about money - it was Mel's way of asking Eddie to show consideration for Angel."

DNA test results released in June 2007 proved that Murphy was Angel's father after he initially denied that she was his.
