The Hollywood funnyman tied the knot with Edmonds in a New Year's Day 'spiritual' wedding ceremony on a South Pacific paradise island.
But the couple never married legally and split just two weeks after their tropical nuptials on the private island near Bora Bora.
They had been planning a legally binding ceremony upon their return to America but dramatically scrapped the plans, saying they had 'decided to remain friends.'
Now pals of insiders are saying that the couple's relationship faltered over finances. "When it came down to the legal marriage, Tracey wouldn't sign a prenup," a pal of Edmonds told the New York Post.
Murphy, 46, got engaged to Tracey, 40, in July.
He has five children from his previous marriage to Nicole Mitchell Murphy, who filed for divorce in 2005.
He also has a baby daughter with Spice Girl Mel B, but refused to acknowledge he was the father until it was proved by paternity tests.
Tracey has two sons from her 12-year marriage to R&B singer Kenneth 'Babyface' Edmonds.
