Let’s talk about family milestones. Steve Harvey, the beloved host of Family Feud, has something truly exciting to share. His youngest daughter, Lori Harvey, is about to walk down the aisle! Steve couldn’t contain his excitement as he announced her engagement to former Manchester United soccer star, Memphis Depay. And oh, does he have some glowing things to say about his soon-to-be son-in-law.

Addressing the Critics
As with any big announcement, not everyone was on board with the news. Some fans questioned whether Lori, at the age of 20, was too young to get married. Lori, ever the confident young woman, took to Twitter to address the concerns. "I'm 20 and my fiancé is 23 for everyone asking... yes, we are young, but when it’s right, why wait?" she tweeted, adding an eye-roll emoji for good measure. It’s clear that Lori knows what she wants, and she’s ready to take this next step in her life.

Pregnancy Rumors and Lori's Response
Of course, with any big announcement comes speculation. Some fans wondered if Lori and Memphis were rushing into marriage because of an unexpected pregnancy. Lori quickly shut down those rumors. "No, I'm not pregnant and won't be for a while," she clarified, once again using the eye-roll emoji to emphasize her point. It’s clear that Lori is taking her time and making decisions that are right for her and her fiancé.
No I'm not pregnant and won't be for a while 🙄

Family Role Models
Lori seems to have a clear understanding of what she wants in a relationship, and it’s no surprise considering the strong marriage role models she has in her life. Both Steve and Marjorie Harvey have been through their own relationship journeys, but they’ve found lasting love with each other. Even though they’ve both been previously married, they knew what they wanted when they found each other.

A Family Built on Love
Steve and Marjorie’s journey to love wasn’t always easy. They dated when they were younger but drifted apart. However, after their respective divorces, they reconnected and realized they were meant to be together. They tied the knot in 2007, and although their seven combined children weren’t immediately thrilled about becoming part of a blended family, Steve and Marjorie were confident in their decision. “I said, ‘Look, you don’t like it? Deal with it. I don’t need y’all’s permission,’” Steve told People. It’s a testament to their strength and commitment to each other.
