: 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.

whatwhatwhat

I cannot for the life of me imagine why any woman would find Steve Harvey attractive. His head is just one large blob with hair.


O_Royalty811

UMPH....SOUNDS LIKE HUSH MONEY TO ME STEVE...


fyoung10

He was wrong for only giving her 1000.00 a month! That sucks!


matman12600

WTF ? MTO. Mary was his first wife. The issue with the money was with the second young wife, (Wynton's mother) he was with for a couple of years. Get your stories (lies ) straight before you print them.


Leanie

He gave her $1,000 a month, but he had his son with him ALL THE TIME didn't he? Why is he paying this heffa who was only with him for 10 years AFTER he made it anything?


Jayster

the worst part about him is them teeth! everytime he smiles he reminds me of mr.ed! imagine getting some brain off him, he smiles and aw sh!t, half your cooch is gone! lol



pooh9

MTO MAKE THIS PIC SMALLER FOR THE TOP STORY,WHEN I CAME ON MTO THIS PIC KINDA SCARED ME BUT NEWAYS WHY IS THIS TOP STORY WHO CARES!!!!!!!!!


deaf_handicapped_rim

what going on problem for marriage situation????


itsyogirl

Straight up hush money


igotareason

He needs some god *** lip gloss! lololol


SCORPIOAKA

I really think that he should not pay a dime, if it is for his second wife and he has his son with him why would he need to pay? Steve also need to stop having all of these dang kids that he always fussing he got to pay for if he dont want to.

Don't belive this one.

missingtupac

Shiid, She betta take the money and run from his crusty lip azz!


MONIQUEP

WHATEVER I HOPE SHE HAPPY NOW CUZ IT SOUNDS LIKE SHE MAY BE STILL IN LOVE WITH HIM AND SHE MAD CUZ HE MOVED ON AND GOT RE-MARRIED. IDK I MAY BE WRONG BUT SHE SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN HER MONEY UPFRONT BUT TWO TIMING *** STEVE. GOOD LUCK TO HER


eshnnj72

See that's the *** right there. That's why he plays gospel music b4 every show and tries not to gossip about other stars on his show. His closet isn't that clean and his legal team advised him wrong. I guess he didn't see Waiting to Exhale. You can't hide money from a black woman.


barebody

He's breath looks like its so strong it can Kill Any STD or VD


WineDine69

I hope yall never post this pic on the main page over a holiday weekend which means we'll have to look at his ugly "flibber lip" longer than the usual 24 hours!!! I don't know who I hate more, Steves corny ***, or Bernie Mac aka "Burnt E Wack".


cali2texas

F^ck that piano mouth ***^cka!



Redz87

See I respect her hustle she's about getting her money. I'mma teach my daughter this.

FreshFromTheStreetz.blogspot.com


whatididhesay

wow...


mmmama

where did yall get that picture? whoooooooa. i do not need to see those lips and hair that close up.


Sixx2007

Can't stand him or his soup coolers.


azanakamili

AGAIN I ASK,

where is Steve's chin in this pic? Did he pay it to drop too?

LOL.


You_Know_Me

Well if it's true that he was only paying $1000/month & no child support, then I do believe he needs to be made to pay a hell of a lot more than that. But you know, it's always about the $$ sign..but she was there when he had nothing, so she should be given more than a mere grand..


bahamachyck

***! I didn't know he had that type of change.


NubianOne

Me either @ bahamachyck

That's news to me too, lmao.


callicrew

He better had, wrong is wrong, and that was *** up what he did. I am no longer a fan of his *** ass


teedy123

sTEVE SHOULD PRACTICE WHAT HE PREACHES, NO WONDER HE'S ON THE RADIO BEGGING FOR FOLKS TO ATTEND HIS TOURS.


makemehappy

NO MORE CLOSE UPS OF STEVE MTO PLEASEEEEEE.....


tha_last2know

From the looks of that pic, either dude got a double chin or he ain't got no chin. One or the other...lmbao


BILLYJOEJIVE

CHEAPER TO KEEP HER STEVIE

PS I LOVE YOU blackbuttapecanrican


simpleeme24

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....



LdyK

Well negroes better learn and recognize...thats all i got to say. secondly he had kids with this woman so be responsible Steve!


Tracy297

***, why couldn't I be his x. Steve cool, but that's what his cheap azz get. 1k a month. Wow.


kdiamond

THAT'S A *** SHAME!!


Miss_Fit

I don't believe this b/c I dont' believe Steve Harvey is even worth 20 million dollars. Just my opinion


teedy123

steve lips look like a deadman.


MzWard

Man, *** That Trout Mouf ***!! His Big Country A$$ Makes Me Want To Vomit! She Should Have Taken Everything!


big_juicy

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.


peppers_01

Aside from the 10M, Steve has got some of the juiciest lips I have ever seen! lol


lifesfunny

babybro_901

*** STEVE!!! AND TO THINK....I BOUGHT TWO OF UR *** SUITS!!! LOL!!!! HE'S STILL RICH ***!!! LMAO!!!!!


MsPhoenix

God don't like ugly, trying to scam your ex-wife someone he loved at one time, definitely comes under the catergory of ugly. I'm glad that he did the right thing.


darealestchick

TAKE THE MONEY!!


PhillyVibe

@Barebody....lmaoooof you wrong for saying that..I have never heard of such...


addorable4u

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.


davis

Good move Steve. He don't want his name drag through the mud. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GVTGNcGNeY


bootswiththefur

uhm ew he look like a hill billy whothe *** cares any way


DaBear

Its cheaper to keep her!!!


mephyme

Uh huh, and what was all that talk about "men with integrity", Steve? It's obvious that "the good Mr. Harvey" never took is own advice.


jpure

A Black man is damned if he does and damned if he doesn't!


prtybrwneyes

Did he think it would end any other way?


truetera

yea he did it


fiddy

some people do not need to put their pictures on here!WOW


TalkinNow

Wow, if this doesn't admit guilt I don't know what does. No wonder Steve beefed up his closing remarks on his talk show with reference to God. Somebody needs to pray.

msjersey

AWWW NOW U GOTTA SELL SOME MORE OF THOSE TACKY A$$ SUITS..STEVE IS WACK


whatididhesay

Thanks Pacman *blushes*


kymelle

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


kymelle

Obviously, I was being funny about the avatars???!!


DreDog

Fiddy I was thinkin' the same *** thang....LMAO!!!

some folks really need to take their pics OFF NOW!!!! ICK!! I give some credit but there are way too many kooks on the internet....not worth the risk. Way too many sexual predators lurkin' around..be careful yall fo real.


DreDog

PacMan is dat you or Reggie Bush...either way....lookin' good! (Just to repeat myself for the 1000th time I am a woman...I know my screen name can fool some folks)


whatididhesay

LOL @ Kymelle..it makes you so sick you wanna pee?! Girl I have never heard that expression before!

Shame since u got some money, that u can just buy your way out your ignorance. Thats big , bringin it to a woman



JuiceBox

STEVIE GOT SOME BIG AZZ LIPS!


easyjay

We have went away from equal rights for women to below average rights for men. It seems every law of this land is fashioned in a way that women have same power as the poilce.


K2TheJ

WOW~ that's a lotta money! I wonder if she'll get half his pension since they were married longer than 10 years??? hummmmmmmm......


pureheaven

My friend once said Steve Harvey Looks like SCOOBY DOO! lmaooooooo


easyjay

lol at the scooby doo comparison. I think he is also as funny as Will Smith. Without scripts they both would not jobs. Gotta watch me some Martin now!


Spartakus

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 ***.


juicy21

i dont believe this story..let me see a pic of her beat up.


fuc4play

SORRY TO SAY BUT I DONT CARE


SexyTexasChick22

good lawd steve what are you doing???

@pacman....*** u lookin good boo : )


COBonner

I will never get how a couple breaks up and he has to give her loot. *** get a job! I mean take care of the kid but as far as she's concerned F her! It's over I'm supposed to support this trick while she is getting smashed out by the next dude? If I was Steve I'd hire somebody to off that skank.


evette29

Steve Harvey look as if his neck pooped


Oldenough

How come his chin and neck is connected?

DANG - with all that meony can't he get a personal trainer - and by a dentist to fix all them *** teeth in his mouth - he has about 100 of them bad boys

HussleHuxtable

mygudness

He needs to arch his eyebrows


mygudness

CORRECTION- He needs to wax (clean up) his eyebrows. Men *** arch!


Scoobydo

I STILL think that Steve is going to shave his head in '08!!


Missme

This dumb, backwoods country *** thought he could just toss his second wife (Mary) to the curb for 1K monthly after 10 freakin yrs. He's more stupid than he looks! How disgusting!


Halle

GOOD! he thought he was going to get over on Mary!


nightnurse

*** , steve


jrlink

how about you spend $10.00 to shave that garden of eden on your top lip mother ***?? cant stand your country azz! you show time at the apollo log rubbin coon!


lashon1

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.


MI5059

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!!!


Missnd1979

Lmao! ITS CHEAPER TOO KEEPER HER....LMAOOO


Nevurary

ANTIGISM

WOW. WE NEED TO PRAY FOR THEM.


telldatruff

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.


MrsNega85

why does he look like that, ew


Celebrity

I can't STAND Steve Harvey's radio show. He's like one of those old uncle's who comes around but won't go away. Uhhhh, go away Uncle Steve.


focus

Worth $20 mil and paying $1,000 a month. He's a fool! You go Mary. Steve is on what, his 10th wife now?


matman12600

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 "


mzarrogance

LMAO @ whatwhatwhat.

i really have no comment. folks, be fair. if someone put up with your lifestyle, your s*$* and all included, THEN you want to leave......compensate. they were MARRIED to you.


polo617

I didn't know Steve was worth 20mil.


ThickMs

*~* the way he went about it was shady but 10 mil ain't bad... HOWEVER - since he's offering it up so quickly, it leads me to believe he's worth way more than that & depending on how much WORK she put in at HOME... it might be worth it to stick it to him majorly anyway *~*


DreDog

LMBAO at Suzique43!!!!

I like when folks keepz it real! LOL!


RedSkyy

Is it me? or does Shirley laff at every single thing Steve says?
