Cafodd Murphy ei geni yn Lismore, Swydd Waterford. Roedd ei rhieni yn hanu o Ddulyn
Ysgrifennodd hefyd am ei theithiau gyda'i plentyn Rachel yn India, Pacistan, De America, Madagascar a Chamerŵn. Yn 2005, ymwelodd â Chiwba gyda'i merch a'i thair wyres. Tad Rachel oedd y newyddiadurwr Terence de Vere White. [1]
Ni briododd Murphy erioed. Disgrifiwyd ei phenderfyniad i fagu ei merch ar ei phen ei hun fel “dewis dewr yn Iwerddon y 1960au” gan The Sunday Business Post, er iddi ddweud ei bod yn teimlo’n ddiogel rhag beirniadaeth oherwydd ei bod yn ei thridegau a’i bod yn ddiogel yn ariannol ac yn broffesiynol. [2] Yn dilyn genedigaeth Rachel, treuliodd bum mlynedd fel adolygydd llyfrau cyn dychwelyd i ysgrifennu teithio.[3]
