‘Sounds Like Steve and His Wife Shading Each Other’: Marjorie Harvey Shares Cryptic Post Following Steve Harvey’s ‘Get Out Early’ Remarks, and Fans React 

Marjorie Harvey‘s fans are certain that she and Steve Harvey may be experiencing “trouble in paradise” after the 57-year-old uploaded a cryptic post to her Instagram Story on June 6. 

The couple, who began dating in 2005, have been married for almost 15 years. Marjorie and Steve also have a blended family of seven children and several grandchildren.

Marjorie’s upload comes hours after the “Family Feud” host shared that he should take break-up notes from his children when discussing his stepdaughter Lori Harvey’s recent split from actor Michael B. Jordan. Lori and Michael dated for over a year before calling it quits. 

Steve’s remarks consisted of getting out of a relationship early so that no financial consequences would arise. “I just wish I could have broke up without the cost factor with it,” he said. “I got to start learning from my children. Get out early. I waited way too late. I got to figure this out.”

Following his statements, Marjorie shared a video featuring “black-ish” star Jenifer Lewis offering word of advice. Lewis said, “You sit in s–t too long it stops smelling. So come the f–k outta there.”

Although Marjorie didn’t disclose who and what she was referring to when posting the video, fans began questioning if the upload was possibly uncovering issues within her marriage to Steve. 

“They talking about each other or what. Cause he said he need to learn like Lori… He need to learn for his own marriage or what? I hate coding!!!!”

“I think they’re talking about themselves cause Steve said he wish he learned to leave early like his kids.”

“They talking about each other or Lori and Michael?”

“Uh oh maybe Trouble in paradise.” 

“Sound like Steve and his wife shading each other here.”

Among the previous remarks, one individual claimed that people are reading too much into the post because Marjorie always shares related advice clips on her page. They wrote, “She always posting stuff like this though I just think it’s coincidental & people are reading into it too much.”

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. 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, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up 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.
