Who is Steve Harvey’s wife Marjorie? A look at their famous family after the Family Feud host slammed cheating rumors amid affair speculation

Steve Harvey’s wife Marjorie recently became the subject of attention after the television mainstay’s wife was faced with allegations of cheating.

Rumors centered on the alleged infidelity of the 66-year-old media figure’s spouse have been circulating on X, formerly known as Twitter, over the past few days.

The Family Feud host, whose stepdaughter recently shared several snaps from her recent trip to Disneyland, has since denied the claims and stated that his ‘marriage is fine’ during a recent live appearance. 

The performer’s wife also released her own response to the claims and has attempted to ‘address all the foolishness and lies’ surrounding her relationship with her husband.

As such, Daily Mail looks into Marjorie’s family life and her longstanding relationship with the entertainer.

WHO IS MARJORIE?

Marjorie Harvey was born on October 10, 1964, and was raised in Memphis, Tennessee.

The social media personality attended the University of Memphis, although she dropped out in order to pursue a career in the fashion industry.

She went on to start a fashion-oriented blog, although it has been inactive since 2018.

The entrepreneur also co-founded a charitable organization, The Steve and Marjorie Harvey Foundation, with her husband in 2010.

RELATIONSHIP WITH HER EXES

Marjorie first marriage was to Jim Townsend, with whom she tied the knot in the mid-1990s.

The former couple remained together for several years before Townsend was sentenced to life in prison after he was caught while attempting to purchase 40 kilograms of cocaine.

The entrepreneur divorced her husband several years into his sentence, although he was pardoned after 26 years by former president Barack Obama.

Marjorie eventually moved on with Darnell Woods, and the pair’s short-lived marriage both began and ended in the early 2000s.

The social media personality does not appear to have spoken publicly about her relationship with her second husband.

HOW DID SHE MEET STEVE HARVEY?

Marjorie and Steve initially met during a comedy show that took place in Memphis in 1990.

The entrepreneur first caught her husband’s eye after she made a late arrival at his performance, and she spoke about their initial encounter during a 2018 episode of The Steve Harvey Show.

She recalled that ‘I thought he was going to give me the business because he got real quiet. He was just staring at me.’

Marjorie added: ‘He finally realized, “Oh, I gotta say something.” He was, like, “Oh, I’m sorry. I don’t know who this is, but I’m gonna marry her.”‘

Steve was previously married to his first wife, Marcia, from 1981 until 1994, and he was subsequently married to Mary Shackelford from 1996 until 2005.

The pair went on to begin a short-lived relationship that ended after just a few weeks when the comedian broke things off with his now-wife.

WHEN DID SHE RECONNECT WITH HER HUSBAND?

Marjorie and Steve eventually reconnected in 2005 after his bodyguard suggested that he reach out to the social media personality.

The comedian subsequently spoke to People and explained that he had broken off their past relationship with his spouse in order to focus on his then-burgeoning career in comedy. 

He told the media outlet that re-establishing his relationship with his partner ‘was like being reborn. I messed up so many times in my life. She made all the difference.’ 

Marjorie added that ‘when Steve came back into my life, it was effortless.’

The happy couple went on to tie the knot in 2007, and they have remained together ever since then.

HOW MANY KIDS DOES MARJORIE HAVE?

Marjorie previously welcomed a pair of daughters named Morgan and Lori, 38 and 26, as well as a son named Jason, 31, during her previous relationships.

The entrepreneur also serves as a stepmother to her husband’s daughters Karli and Brandi, 40, as well as his sons Broderick and Wynton, 31 and 26.

The social media personality has since become a grandmother to nearly ten children.

She frequently shares photos featuring her kids on her Instagram account.

CHEATING ALLEGATIONS

Marjorie was faced with allegations of cheating earlier this month after YouTuber Keem made a now-deleted post on X.

According to Fox News, the media personality wrote that the entrepreneur had cheated on [Steve] with the bodyguard & the personal chef.’

After the tweet became the subject of numerous memes, the comedian responded to the claims during an appearance at Invest Fest 2023, which was held in Atlanta on Sunday

In a video that was shared on a fan’s TikTok account, the performer stated: ‘Before I get started, just let me say, I’m fine. Marriage is fine.’

The comedian then asked that fans refrain from looking into his marriage, stating: ‘I don’t know what y’all are doing, but find something else to do cause we fine, Lord have mercy.’

He added: Sometimes you wanna respond, but I ain’t got no time for rumors and gossip.
