Steve Harvey’s wife, Marjorie, has addressed the rumors that she allegedly cheated on the game show host with their bodyguard and personal chef, insisting it’s all “foolishness and lies.”
Marjorie, 58, who has been married to Steve, 66, since 2007, denounced the allegations in a post shared on her Instagram account on Sunday night.
She uploaded a screenshot of a website titled “How to deal with lying about,” which featured a quote from the Bible.
“When they hurled their insults at him, he took no revenge,” it read. “When he suffered, he made no threats. Instead, he entrusted himself to him who judges justly.’

Hours earlier, Steve angrily set the record straight on this topic during a speech at Invest Fest 2023 in Atlanta on Sunday.
He told the crowd, “Before I start, I want to say, I am fine. Marjorie is doing well. I don’t know what you guys are doing, but find something else to do, because we’re fine.
‘Lord, have mercy. Man. I don’t have time for rumors and gossip. God has been good to me, I’m still glowing.’
Rumors that Marjorie was involved in an affair with Steve’s security started on Twitter last week, but it’s unclear where they originally came from.

The couple (seen in 2016) first met in 1990 at a comedy club, but went their separate ways. However, they got back together in 2005 and became husband and wife two years later
The couple first met in 1990 at a comedy club and started dating, but they soon went their separate ways.
“I knew he was the one shortly after I started dating him… but then he just left. Gone,” Marjorie said Essence magazine from 2014.
However, in 2005 they got back together and this time things were different. They quickly fell in love and two years later they became husband and wife.
According to the comedian, it was his bodyguard who convinced him to contact Marjorie again.
“He told me, ‘Look, the only time I ever saw you happy was when you were with that woman Marjorie. Before you do something stupid and marry another woman, I’ll call her,'” Steve recalled People.
“It was like being reborn. I screwed up so many times in my life. She made all the difference. If you are happy at home, you can make a lot happen.’
After their marriage, the TV star adopted Marjorie’s three children from her previous relationship: Lori, Morgan and Jason.
Before saying “yes” to his current wife, the Family Feud alum was previously married to Mary Shackelford from 1996 to 2005. They share one son named Wynton.
They have never welcomed children of their own, but both have adopted their children from their previous relationships. Steve is pictured in 2011 with some of his children
In 2012, Steve told People how Marjorie “changed the way he existed.” He said, “I’ve never had a healthy adult relationship. I was never fully respected’
His first marriage was to Marica Harvey from 1981 to 2004. They welcomed twins, named Brandi and Karli, as well as a son named Broderick.
In 2012, Steve told People how Marjorie “changed the way he existed.”
“She changed the way I existed. I had never been in a healthy adult relationship. I had never been loyal, I was never fully respected,” he said.
She added, “We’re best friends. It’s the first time we’ve both had someone we can talk to about anything.”
Marjorie has also spoken out about the way they’ve put together their huge family, telling the newspaper in 2016, ‘When you’re dealing with a blended family, everyone comes from a broken place.
“We knew this was right. But I just told them, ‘Everyone is participating. Everyone has access to their parents. What you didn’t have before, don’t let that get in the way of what you can have now.” Now we’re mom and dad to everyone.’
