Marcia Harvey’s Married Life With Steve Harvey

Marcia Harvey’s early childhood is little known except that she was born into an African-American family. However, she began working at Saks Fifth Avenue, a department store and met Steve Harvey a few years later at a wedding reception of a mutual acquaintance. 

The author was married to Steve from 1980 till 1994. The couple’s twin daughters, Karli and Brandi, were born on August 20, 1982, and their son, Broderick Harvey Jr., was born on April 29, 1991. Steve abandoned Marcia and his three children to pursue a comedy career, so she raised them as a single mother.

 As a result, the court ordered him to pay Marcia $5100 per month in support payments when their divorce was finalized in 1994. Steve, on the other hand, did not pay anything. As a result, Marcia was compelled to file an affidavit in court.

Again, Steve was found guilty of not paying child support and owed her more than $36,000. Even before his divorce from Marcia was finalized, further revelations of the divorce process showed that Steve had begun living with his second wife, Mary Lee Harvey, with whom he has one child Wynton Harvey. Now, he is happily married to his third wife, Marjorie Harvey, with whom he has three kids, Lori Harvey, Morgan Harvey, and Jason Harvey.

The celebrity’s ex-wife went on to develop her fashion line and have a great career due to her uncompromising independence. However, she has not revealed the specifics of how she managed to keep her family together and provide a secure and joyful upbringing for her children.

The 66-year-old also became a published author later in life, publishing her first poetry collection, titled “Marcia: Eyes to the Soul.” The memoir about the testament to her life before and during her divorce from Steve was released in April 2011.

Marcia Harvey’s Ex-husband’s Career

As a stand-up comedian, Steve Harvey’s 27-year career came to an end on August 2, 2012, when he did his final stand-up act at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Harvey is well-known as a lively and engaging host, perhaps more so than as a comic, and started presenting the “Family Feud” game program in 2010. He has also served as host for the most significant period of any past host of the show.

The actor also hosts a spin-off called “Celebrity Family Feud.” Thanks to YouTube and the countless viral videos depicting his reactions to “Family Feud” contestants and their improper or erroneous answers, he has gained modern notoriety. In 2013, he was the first host to be nominated for both the Outstanding Talk Show Host and Outstanding Game Show Host Daytime Emmy Awards. 

The artist hosted the 2015 Miss Universe event in Las Vegas 2015. Despite his error, in which he declared the first-runner-up winner and had to admit a few minutes after she was crowned that he had misread the results, he went on to host the Miss Universe pageant in 2016, 2017, and 2018.
