Steve Harvey has shared a positive update about his daughter Lori Harvey and how she has been doing since her public split from Michael B. Jordan. The 65-year-old comedian and television host appeared as a guest on Today With Hoda & Jenna on Tuesday.
Hosts Hoda and Jenna questioned Harvey about whether he gave 25-year-old Lori any advice after her split from actor Michael B. Jordan.
See, I have to be careful how I answer this… My daughter is in my behind! I’m not allowed to talk about anything…
Harvey laughingly responded.
Ive given her advice quite a few times but you know, its difficult cause shes 25. Shes growing up as a public figure. She doesnt get to make her mistakes like everybody else everybody else gets to make their mistakes in the cloak of darkness at your house. Hers gets publicized.
The 65-year-old then said that he feels his daughter has done a “really good job at figuring it out and getting it right.” He added that she’s in a “great place” in her life now.
But shes done a really good job of figuring it out and getting it right. And I think shes at a great place in her life right now I think shes content with Lori and I think thats a great place for her to start from.
The hosts then reflected on Lori’s recent interview with Essence, where she firmly asserted that she’ll be prioritizing herself as she moves forward in life.
Harvey shared more of his thoughts.
You get the best out of a man and out of life when you get the best out of yourself. If you come into a relationship wanting, needing, empty when you come in empty, a person can pour into you whatever they want. But if you come in already full? ‘Im already full so now I need you to make additions. I dont need you to pour nothing in me.’ That usually dont work out.
As The Shade Room previously reported, Lori Harvey graced the January/February cover of Essence. And candidly spoke about her decision to prioritize self-love in her life.
I feel like its always been about me attached to someone. This time, its about me. Self-love, self-care, self-reflection. Im being a little selfish right now. Its my time.
Harvey went on to say that she is choosing peace and happiness, and letting go of anything that doesn’t serve that decision, as she moves forward.
Thats where Im at in my life right now. Im not compromising my peace and happiness for anything or anybody. And so if I see any signs of that happening, Im like, ‘Got to go.’
Roommates, are you happy to hear that Lori is in a “great place”?
