‘I Want This Kind of Happiness’: Steve Harvey Has Fans Swooning Over His Anniversary Post to Wife Marjorie Harvey

Steve Harvey and Marjorie Harvey are celebrating 14 years of marriage.

To celebrate, Steve posted a video that showed several photos of him and Marjorie together. In the background, the comedian can be heard reciting the story of how the two met. He said, “The first night I met her was at a comedy club. The first word I said to Marjorie was, ‘Lady I don’t know who you are.’ I stopped the show. I said, ‘I don’t know who you are, but I’m going to marry you one day.’ ” The two dated briefly and reconnected in 2005 before marrying in 2007.

In the anniversary-related video, Steve called himself “The most blessed man” before planting a kiss on Marjorie.

He wrote, “We celebrate our anniversary today,” in the caption. The 64-year-old received over a million views on the video and nearly 300.000 likes.

Marjorie, 56, kept it a little more simple and posted a photo to commemorate their special day. She wore a long black outfit while Steve wore a white top and black pants. In the background, you could see an elegant table and two chairs underneath a beautiful chandelier. Her caption read, “Happy Anniversary Baby 😍🙏🏾,” and she received nearly 150,000 likes on her post.

The couple has a blended family with a total of seven children. Both parties have been married previously. Some of their children have had children, and in the latter part of the last year, Steve and Marjorie became the grandparents of six grandchildren.

Fans celebrated the couples’ anniversary, and some even expressing wanting a relationship like theirs for themselves. One person said, “I want this kind of happiness 😢😢😍.” Someone else wrote, “I want a man to love me like this!!! Amazing. God bless you two. Happy Anniversary.”

Another person showed admiration for their lifestyle. Someone said, “Wealth just looks different. 🔥🔥🔥🔥.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
