Steve Harvey's Ex-Wife Claims He Cheated and Left Her Homeless

Steve Harvey's ex-wife, Mary Harvey, blasted the comedian in a series of
YouTube videos this weekend and alleged that he cheated on her, took their son and left her homeless. In the videos, totaling almost 30 minutes, Mary discusses their entire relationship, adding that his infidelity ultimately led to their divorce.
Recalling how their marriage unraveled, she claims that on their second anniversary she accidentally received a "confidential" envelope from his mistress. Although she knew he was cheating on her, Mary stayed with Steve for the sake of their son, Wynton. But she knew the marriage was over when she intercepted a phone call from Marjorie Bridges, whom Steve went on to marry after he and Mary divorced.
"I had committed to growing old with him. The first time I was aware of Marjorie [Bridges], I had nothing else to say ... I had given it all for the sake of my marriage and my family," she says.
After she confronted Steve, he abruptly left and dragged her through grueling divorce proceedings. "He turned my son against me and had me evicted from our house," she claims. "I woke up, and everything was gone."
The couple divorced in 2005. Steve Harvey married Bridges two years later. "When I think about how quickly he moved from me to Marjorie, that was disturbing," she said in the video.
Mary Harvey says she's only speaking now because her ex-husband is suing her. "In Steve's opinion, I was responsible when Oprah did not give him a TV show," she says. "I'm being sued for that. That is why I'm saying what I have to say ... So as much as I'm trying to move forward, I keep getting pulled back into a situation that I don't want to be a part of."
Mary went on to allege that in exchange for dropping the suit, Steve's lawyers prepared a letter for her to sign taking responsibility for the demise of their marriage.
In response, Steve Harvey's attorney released a statement (via
PEOPLE) stating, "We are appalled and aware of the videos and other fabricated documents ... which contained false, misleading, derogatory, disparaging, malicious, explicit and slanderous information about Mr. Harvey, his current wife and others ... We are saddened that the ex-wife has resorted to such devious and selfish behavior, with a reckless disregard for their minor son, her adult son and Mr. Harvey's other children."

People please get a life, if you read any of his books you would know that he has been up front about his relationship with both of his ex-wives and how he has grown from that. He did not hide his wrong doing and has been very honest about his life. Mary need to take a look in the mirrow and see what she is missing. I think she is lying about Steve and she miss not getting all the money he is making. What women gives up her child?
Steve Harvey cheat on his ex wife,and always talking how to treat ladys.

I saw this Steve Harvey on a show talking about
what makes a good marriage, giving abvice on marriage
blah, blah, blah. There was something about him that
I did not believe him to be sincere, I did not know he
was married before. He looks and acts like he's full
of him self. His ex wife should write a book about
this male diva.

I saw this joker on a "Family Feud" one time when I was on vacation. He was not entertaining at all, and showed blatant favoritism to one family over the other. I thought he was terrible and really kind of a jerk. No matter what this woman has to say, she should be receiving alimony or some sort of settlement for being married to this guy at all.

No doubt, IF Steve would have done this right , we would not be hearing this In The News...... Steve apologize to this woman and let her know that the time spent was of some value You should have paid for the time YOU DID SPEND WITH HER
If you read his books NOT once has he said he's been a SAINT. He has mention to us how he became the MAN that he is by what he has done and made it a LESSON learned!

The other part of this lesson is to apologize to this woman for the wrong that has been done. It is not enough to write a book about your mistakes and benefit. Apology to the one you have hurt and mistreated , is the best indicator of growth and character. Wealth and Success does not always mean personal growth or representative of decency and character . Some folks will sell their very soul for a dollar.
I'm not surprised.
