Drama-Continues :: Steve Harvey Gets Wife, Mary Harvey, Arrested

Despite the fact that Steve Harvey and his second ex-wife, Mary Shackelford have been divorced since 2005, they can’t seem to get rid of each other. Allegedly, Harvey had Shackelford thrown in jail, in front of her children and also hit her with a lawsuit and a temporary restraining order against their son, Wynton. In a 14 minute phone call interview with Shanae Hall, Harvey’s ex-wife talks about the arrest and says that Harvey is

“trying to restrict me from having a reality show, a book deal, doing radio..he’s trying to have me sound and gagged under the court system.”

She also states that she is not even sure what the lawsuit is over and speculates that it could be over a missed court date that she had filed a continuance over, that could have been denied. Back in January, Shackleford did some semi-tell-all videos about her dysfunctional marriage to Harvey. In the videos, she claimed that he was a serial cheater and that she got nothing in the divorce settlement. However, court documents proved that, in fact, Mary got $40,000 a month till March 2009 and $1.5 million afterwards. She also claimed that she was evicted from her home but she was actually awarded three homes in the property settlement. As a result of the videos, in February a judge placed a gag order which prevented her from speaking negatively about Harvey in the media. But that only lasted till March. Peep the full phone interview below.

So…what do we think? Is there any truth here, or is she seeking additional publicity?

    Warning……….Warning…….to Mr. Steve Harvey…….Warning….Warning…This is a spiritual warning…

    I’ve taken the time to read all your comments. I respect each persons opinion. And at the end of the day, that’s just what it is, an opinion. Well my opinion is, I’m holding Steve solely responsible for all the turmoil that’s being poached in the media. Gods said His love covers a multitude of sin, and to whom much is given, much is required.

    A real (Godly-Man) true protector of his family, will not be selective when it comes to protecting the ones you love. And as much as we hate to admit it, Mary Harvey is still as much family to Steve now, though she is not his wife, Mary is still the mother of their son Wynton, and Steve could have done much much more, not to allow his son’s mother to be made, to look like a baffoon to the world.

    I have some key points, I would like to highlight……1) 16 years of struggle and success with Mary Harvey, Not Marjorie Harvey, Marjorie is just the clean-up woman in this scenario, Mary Harvey put up with Steve’s stuff for 16 years vica-verca…2) A wonderful son Wynton, who has to watch his daddy play Holy-Man, while his mom is torchered with embarrassment. I don’t think Steve ever told Wynton of all his unfaithful acts, he committed while being married to his mother… 3).

    A little black book that never got tore up, until Steve married Marjorie. Has Marjorie ever openly denied, that she and Steve never crossed any lines of extra marital affairs, while Steve was still married to Mary? Cause Mary did call ole-girl to the not-so-Red-carpet…. 4) Juanita Jordan, and Elin Woods (Ex wives of Micheal Jordan and Tiger Woods) will eat for the rest of their lives @ $100 million plus each.

    Mary Harvey is on Snack-Mode or shall we call it wealthy-welfare. …4) Steve was questioned on the ‘VIEW’ being asked did he ever CHEAT WITH MARJORIE? His now wife while married to Mary? the question was never answered clearly by Steve, he only skirted around and said, marjorie has always been his sweet-heart, that wasn’t the questions….6) When is Marjorie going to clear her name with Mary Harvey, Did you sleep with Steve, while he was still married to Mary? Until Marjorie does that, Steve Harvey himself,, can’t camoaflouge that stain. Marjorie Harvey, America’s women needs to hear from you, not your husband on this one.

    Let me summarize this. we , the national and international viewing community, are only catching the backend of all the Harvey’s phenomenon. Mary is in pain, being in pain doesn’t replace being dignified and sophisticated, and truthful, however this is how Mary Harvey, the true foundation building wife, that labored with Steve Harvey, much of his foundational years, that led him to the success he now so rightfully deserves, Steve put some skin in the game. Marjorie is getting the I’m the choir-boy-now, Steve Harvey.

    In my opinion, that’s not all together fair to Mary to an extent. Mary has no need to be jealous of Steve’s current success. Steve is there due to much because of Mary’s prayers and support over their 16-years of marriage. I would have more of an appreciation for Marjorie if she would have publicly reached out to Mary to extend an olive branch of friendship and sisterhood.

    Marjorie has taken a quiet role in this whole matter, which raises questions of ‘SCANDAL’, { Olivia Pope b.c. Lol. }. I’m not saying Marjorie has to defend her husband Steve, he does a good job of defending himself, which leaves little for God to do in the defense-department, for Steve.

    I would have advised Steve to get every party behind closed doors, and away from the media, and to make it right with Mary, marjorie, their children and God, in order to move forward, with integrity. I think Steve Harvey should be dealt with by God, for allowing his sons mother to get thrown in jail, before the eyes of the entire world, knowing all the sins and wrongs he’s committed during their 16 years marriage.

    Yes Mary handled some things wrong and undignified, while Steve and Majorie play house with their son. Steve should have made sure his son communicated and visited his mother on a regular basis to keep his hands clean and heart purified. I personally think, the real two victims here are first Wynton, then Mary. I can’t place a label on Marjorie yet. I will say this, Marjorie should consider balancing the playing field with Steve, to clear herself before the Lord.

    Being clear, and making sure that Mary is not left destitute or poverished, just so Steve can say to the world see, I told you Mary was wrong. That is a self righteous spirit. Martin Luther King wouldn’t have never allowed this to transpire this way.

    Marjorie doesn’t have enough skin in the game yet, to substantiate Queenship. She is still yet a novice-maiden. Right now Marjorie is a polished-princess, with no proof-of-process, for the success, she now shares with a man another women bored the burden, helping design. Marjorie, be the women about this, the world believes you are. You can’t laugh at Mary in this scenario, while you’re spending her harvest, she still has spiritual prayers and intellectual properties invested in Mr. Harvey.

    All what Steve Harvey has now, are a result of the prayers and hard work, he and Mary put before God before Margie’s time. Steve is a great success, thank God he can enjoy the niceties of this world, and that’s it, just-nicites. However when it comes to the favor of God, status-quo in Helly-Wood, doesn’t qualify you to be Gods man, in whom He’s well pleased.

    Steve Broderick Harvey, I compell you to go down there to that jail house, and do one of two things! ! ! Listen to me good, my man, now you get a chance to hear someone else talk, listen to me good.

    Get your behind down there to that jail-house, where your son’s mother, the women you once loved and cared for as your wife, and probably still care for. I advise you to either beg that judge to free Mary immediately from jail, or you get you ass, in the cell next to her, until January 17th.

    You are sinning (Omission) to allow your son to see something he shouldn’t see, his mother locked up for missing her family, Yes Mary was wrong for lying in court, you’ve lied before in life, did you go to jail?. Jesus took the sins of the world on His shoulders, with no complaints, and left our sins at the cross. When are you going to take Mary’s wrongs to the King of the cross. What did Martin Luther King Jr. do when that women stabbed him. Com-on Steve man-up here, we brothers watching this, stuff, and you down on your stella-forgiveness points.

    You didn’t let your son see you, when you were doing you, on the down low. So don’t let his mother look like a crazy women. Now if you ignore this. Then God got it from here. However you heard it on this thread ‘ Centrics’. Get it right today. I love you and wish you the best Happy holidays, and tell Sister Odell, I said hello, and please make rejoining the church, her 2014 New Years Resurrection. Lol.

      I so agree with your comment. How can he expect his son to establish a respectful relationship with his mother seeing her treated as a stranger. She should be respected as much as his new wife, monetarily and morally. Not a good example for him or any of his children. No wonder she is bitter.
