Steve Harvey Under Fire Following His Wife’s Use of the “R” Word

Certain words carry significant impact and should be avoided altogether. Some of these words target specific groups, while others are simply too offensive to tolerate. When Steve Harvey’s wife used the word “retarded” on social media, it caused public outcry. Steve Harvey stepped in to address the situation and defend his wife.

The incident unfolded in a video on Marjorie Harvey’s Instagram, where she and Steve were playfully cutting fruit in the kitchen. Marjorie used the offensive term while joking about an argument with her husband over vegetable cutting. However, her choice of words sparked a major controversy, prompting Steve Harvey to intervene.

In the video, Marjorie can be heard saying, “I’m sitting here arguing with my husband, ’cause clearly he thinks I’m retarded [and] I don’t know how to cut a beet.” This clip garnered over 400,000 views on Instagram, where Marjorie boasts 1.7 million followers as a fashion and lifestyle blogger.

Many of Marjorie’s followers expressed disappointment and outrage at her use of the derogatory term. Some highlighted the harmful impact such language has on individuals with cognitive disabilities and their families. Despite backlash, some supporters dismissed the criticism as excessive political correctness.

Steve Harvey defended his wife’s use of the word, arguing it was not meant to offend and that people were overreacting. He expressed frustration with what he perceived as an overly sensitive response from the public.

The incident raised questions about the public’s reaction to offensive language and the boundaries of political correctness. While some felt the outrage was justified, others believed it was blown out of proportion. Ultimately, the controversy emphasized the importance of sensitivity and respect when using language, particularly in a public setting.

Julia Roberts: Embracing her well-deserved vacation

No matter how much time passes by from the time the iconic movie that stole millions of hearts aired, stunning Julia Roberts would always be the  Pretty Woman we all fall for.

At 56, the actress defies age, no matter what people think of her looks. For one, she’s all about natural aging and embraces her appearance.

The beloved Hollywood icon has been spotted enjoying a well-deserved vacation recently.

What many noticed is that Roberts gained a few pounds, but looking at her, we can’t help but agree that the saying “beauty comes in all shapes and sizes” is totally accurate.

The great thing about Roberts is that she’s not afraid to put on bikini despite those extra few pounds, and that’s one of the reasons we all love her so much.

Of course, people’s opinions over Robert’s recent photos differ. While some say she’s changed, others are convinced she looks stunning for her age, or any age to be honest.

Her fans always stay by her side and remind us that beauty doesn’t always come from the outside.

For the last 20 years, Roberts has been happily married to Daniel Moder. When they first met in 2000 on the set of  The Mexican, Moder was married to then-wife Vera Steimberg. Rumors were that his first marriage broke down because of the  Runaway Bride star although she claimed she wasn’t the reason why Moder and Steimberg divorced.

Before tying the knot with Moder, with whom she shared three children, twins Phinnaeus and Hazel and a son Henry, Roberts was romantically involved with actors Dylan McDermott, Matthew Perry, Jason Patric and Liam Neeson. She was briefly engaged to actor Kiefer Sutherland, but the two split mere days before they were supposed to say ‘I do.’

Roberts then married country singer Lyle Lovett and their marriage lasted for two years, from 1993 to 1995. At the time she met Moder, Roberts was said to have dated actor Benjamin Bratt.

Today, the couple are as in love as day one.
