Steve Harvey isn’t ready for Michael B. Jordan to propose to his daughter just yet

“That’s a really hard one”

Even though  Steve Harvey  has already expressed his approval for his daughter’s boyfriend, that doesn’t mean he wants a new son-in-law any time soon.

On Thursday, March 3, the Family Feud host participated in a game of “Sip or Spill” during his appearance on Today with Hoda and Jenna. In this game, guests are required to answer the questions the co-hosts ask, or they can choose to take a sip of their beverage in order to plead the fifth.

During his roung of the game, the 65-year-old struggled to answer whether he would approve of Michael B. Jordan asking his stepdaughter, Lori Harvey, to marry him.

“Man, this is a hard one,” he replied. “I’ve given away two daughters. I’ve got four. That’s a really hard one. I would have to say so far — yeah, yeah. No, no, no, man.

That’s when the comedian took a large sip from his glass, signaling the fact that he didn’t wanna give a straight answer.

The Creed actor has been dating Harvey for more than a year now, and even though her stepdad might not be ready for his 25-year-old to get married, he’s more than happy with their relationship as it stands right now.

Back in March 2021, a few months after the pair went public, Steve admitted that while he tried not to like Jordan, he approves.

“You know, I have tried not to like him,” he told Ellen DeGeneres last year. “I have tried to find something wrong with him that I could dig in and go. ‘Cause I done got rid of all of them. All of them. Some of them that snuck in the back door on me and lasted a lot longer than I wanted it to.”

Harvey continued, “This guy is such a good guy, man. He is one of the nicest guys, man. I’ve met his father. I’ve set up with him, we’ve talked for hours. I just can’t find nothin‘ wrong with him. Between me and you, I’m hoping this lasts ’cause this is a really, really good guy, man.”

So, while he might not want his 25-year-old tying the knot any time soon, it seems like he’ll have no problem if Lori and the Black Panther actor do make it to the altar.
