: Looks like the shocking Steve Harvey abuse lawsuit has come to an end. MediaTakeOut.com has learned that Steve and his ex-wife are very close to reaching a monetary settlement.
As MediaTakeOut.com first reported to you, Mary Harvey was suing Steve for swindling her out of millions, and for mental and physical abuse. Last week we also told you that Steve was facing prison time if a judge ruled that he contemptuously withheld vital information from Mary's legal team.
And it appears that the threat of prison time may have caused Steve to open up his wallet. According to one person familiar with the case, Steve offered Mary approximately $10M to settle the suit and Mary is expected to accept the offer.
The insider told MediaTakeOut.com, "Court documents have Steve's net worth at around $20M, so he's basically offering half of everything he owns to make this lawsuit go away ... He really wants this lawsuit, and all the nasty allegations in it, to disappear because it's starting to hurt his image."
Mary and Steve had been married for more than 10 years. Before the settlement, Mary was receiving only $1,000 a month and no child support from her millionaire ex-husband.
We want to give a special thanks to our good friends over at Mahogany Girl who helped us with the reporting on this story.
I'm not surprised that he has that much money, for some reason his comedy shows usually sell out and he has had his own T.V. show, radio show, and he's played roles in a few movies....So he has it but I don't believe this hype of a story...MTO I agree with Pooh9 minimize that dang pic...It almost scared the heck out of me....
cheap mo fo! always bragging about his new wife and how he treats her so well. he wouldn't have been able to pull this new chick if the old mrs. harvey hadn't supported and helped his whack azz get where he was. la nueva escobija siempre barre bien. "the new broom always sweep good". just wait steve you'll be tired of her soon too.
Mary has been riding with Steve since the begining when they was living out of a car in Dallas, Texas while he was trying to get his career started and his club up in running and all the other *** *** she had to put up with, plus her name was on most of the stuff that he has now. So I think she deserve it.
call_me_crazy_but ~ I AGREE! I hate that Doug Banks got took off the air in Milwaukee and replaced with Steve's boring A$$ morning show. He's always trying to preach, I don't get into his characters he does. I can't stand that chick Shirley's voice it's so dammm irritating and the other one too! That morning show is WHACK & I WANT DOUG & THEM BACK...............!
1. I don't like Steve Harvey, I can't stand the tone of his voice, all slow and dragging- like he's saying something so profound. His voice is the same as nails against a chalkboard, acutally the nails/chalkboard is like a lullabye in comparison. And uggh, those stupid played out zoot-suits. He thinks he is so intelligent, with a ***-daddy edge. He makes me so sick, I just want to pee.
2. I don't know how I feel about all these damned pictures- its distracting and childish
No *** deserves 10 mill. Sorry, but i'm killin' any *** that tries to rob me like that. It's not like she wrote his jokes or got him into television. I wold let her get the house and a couple of cars. She could get alimony and maybe child support if she had my kid; but 10 mill.....I would have to get at that ***.
@peppers01 those *** are SCREAMIN' FOR MERCY! LOL... don't get mad at me but uh you could lose a couple! @ DA BEAR why you gotta tease a sister with one arm let's see it all! maybe mto will let you be our eyecandy...as for steve f*ck this corney mofo...ps if you don't want us to comment on your pic don't put one up!
unbelievable, he is worth a whole lot more than that. Mary, have your lawyer summon the books that have not been presented. Or just tell about all the shows that he has been on whether he was acting or was presenting. He is still making millions on the re-runs of both the shows he starred in. Also, WBLS here in New York is paying him royaly. His clothing line etc. Get yours and the next time Girl... pay attention.
He is so phoney. I never thought he was funny. Any comedian (in my opinion) who laughs at their own jokes (like he does) is not funny. Awhile ago my mother asked me why does he talk so country?? I told her I thought it was part of his phoney act. He's from Cleveland, I live in the midwest and no one I know talks like that.
I remember years ago when he was receiving some sort of lifetime achievment award or something (I think on BET) and his wife Mary was standing behind him as he was giving his acceptance speech. He was of course giving her accolades and talking about how she is partially responsible for his success. The whole phoney spleel he always gives. She was standing there looking so evil. It was so obvious that I remember calling several people and telling them to look at her facial expression and body language. She didn't crack a smile and looked like she really didn't want to be there. It was so obvious that something was wrong in that relationship.
He himself said she was partially responsible for his success so if that's the case the brother should pay up POINT BLANK...PERIOD
Negro just trying to keep this out the press, I really don't see why, no one I know believes that righteous baloney he tries to pull off on the radio anyway. Like someones said Karma is a... And I'm sure he will have to pay more than just financially to Mary. He's a hyprocrite and using the Lord's name in the process. This will haunt him.
AND IF IT'S NOT TRUE GIVE YOUR SIDE OF THE STORY!!!
Isn't this the man that is on the radio preaching about men treating women right? Steve you are full of SH*T. And Steve you better watch your a*s because the drug lord queen you got now may just *** you, claim self defense and move on to the new drug dealer she is cheating on you with now...LOL
@CoBonner What an ignorant thing to say... Why don't you feel that the ex-wife (Mary) isn’t worth 10 million? So how much is staying with your Man when he was just a blue collar man and then helping him come up worth? That is what is wrong with black families today....The men get money and leave their wife for the ho they were cheating with. Then they lose it all because it was the wife that supported and help them come up not the ho she just s*uck your d*ck and spent your money.
K2TheJ ... What pension ? he's self employed. but again, this is wife number two, they weren't MARRIED for ten years. They have been in and out of court on the regular. He was always talking on his show about how "GOD" is so amazing in helping him with his troubles. Well I guess he never heard the saying "GOD DON'T LIKE UGLY "
