Nicole Murphy starts up talk by sharing photo with Omari Hardwick touching her face

The fitness mom and beauty entrepreneur recently attended Essence Festival, and after sharing a picture with “Power” star Omari Hardwick on social media, she made fans start talking about how close the pair seem to be.

Nicole Murphy was once a supermodel that walked for some of the biggest names in the fashion industry, and these days, at her 50, she looks at least 20 years younger and keeps on stunning fans left and right with her fit body and amazing looks.

The mom of five recently attended the Essence Festival to be part of the beauty panel and talk about her newest business adventure, an anti-aging skincare line named Zobela. The brand marks Nicole’s first steps into the beauty industry after the success of her jewelry line, P.F.L and her upcoming clothing brand.

While on the fest, which is celebrated in New Orleans every year, Nicole met some of the stars of the “Power” series, and as any fangirl would, she shared the pics on her Instagram account. First, Murphy posted a photo with Joseph Sikora, who plays Tommy in the series, and she couldn’t contain her excitement as she wrote in her caption:

“I NEVER do this but TOMMY OMG!!!!!! #power #starz #nicolemurphy #power @josephsikora4 @50cent love THE SHOW. #POWER #NIKIMURPHY #NICOLEMURPHY #50centralbet”

Then, she shared a pic with the main lead of the show, Omari Hardwick, who gives life to James "Ghost" St. Patrick. The pic, however, raised some eyebrows from fans who consider the shot gives away a little bit too much of closeness between Nicole and Omari, considering he’s a married man.

In the pic, Hardwick is holding Nicole’s face with one hand and her waist with the other, while she laughs with an arm around him.

“No caption needed!!!!!!!!! #ghost #power #starz @omarihardwickofficial #nicolemurphy #omarihardwick #essencefest,” she wrote in the caption of the photo.

Some fans immediately took to the comment section to remind Nicole that Omari is a happily married man, while others stated they would make a beautiful couple.

Instagram user @seamee2 said “You Giddy Girl!!! I'm not hating, just congratulating. He has that effect!!!” while @nanafitandcolorful added “His wife isn’t worried. He really seems to be deeply in love with her,” and @loveeejaz_ said, “Wow you guys would make the perfect looking couple.”

Omari Hardwick has been married to his beautiful wife, Jennifer Pfautch, for six years, but they’ve been a couple for a long time. They also have two kids, Nova and Brave, and despite the constant critics they get for their interracial marriage, Omari and Jae seem to be just fine.

Nicole, on the other hand, was once married to Eddie Murphy, the father of her five kids. She was also engaged with Michael Strahan but ended the relationship because of busy schedules.

Since then, Nicole hasn’t been romantically linked to any other man, as she has been focusing on her business and her kids.
