The streets are buzzing that the feds might have documentation linking Lori Harvey to being an industry escort, claiming they found some questionable video footage and photos of her with Diddy from his private tapes. People are wondering if Lori’s going to get exposed the way others have, with some thinking there’s more footage out there that could come to light. Diddy’s ex, Gina, shared a story about how he showed her an old picture of them together, and she suggested he make it his screensaver. When she tried to help him with it, she ended up seeing a picture of him and Lori in the exact same pose.
But it’s not just the photos that have people talking—Lori is back in the spotlight because of her connection to Diddy, and there are rumors swirling. Some are questioning whether Steve and Marjorie Harvey knew what was going on when they were vacationing with Diddy, who was 20 years older than their daughter. There’s even talk that they may have actually pimped Lori out to him, with some speculating that this is why Cat Williams exposed Diddy multiple times. There are also rumors that Steve and Marjorie offered Lori for $50 million, and the fact that Steve deleted a tweet about Diddy “doing good for these kids” just adds to the suspicions.
The whole situation is raising a lot of eyebrows, especially with people claiming to have receipts on everything. There’s a lot of mystery surrounding it all, and it’s making people question what’s really going on with the Harvey family.
Let’s talk about the Lori Harvey situation for a minute. We all know Lori has had quite a few high-profile relationships in Hollywood—everything from Damson Idris to Michael B. Jordan. But before Michael B. Jordan, she was linked to Abu Theum, Aon’s brother, after they were seen getting cozy at a Miami nightclub back in October 2020. This was just weeks before she was spotted with Michael. Earlier, in 2019, Lori dated Future, and before that, she had a fling with Justin Combs in 2018. She also had a short romance with Trey Songz, and shortly after that, was seen kissing F1 champ Lewis Hamilton at a Super Bowl party. Lori was even engaged to Dutch footballer Memphis Depay at one point, and there have been some other relationships that stayed out of the public eye.
When asked about the celebrities she’s been with, one guy opened up about his time with Lori, saying, “It wasn’t just a one-time thing. We were really together. She’d Uber to my beach place, stay with me some nights.” And he went on to say that this was back when she was, in his words, “thicker”—before she slimmed down.
But by far, the relationship that really had people scratching their heads was with Diddy. They were seen together all over the place—Italy, Mexico, New York, Atlanta—sparking rumors that they were romantically involved. What made it even messier was the rumor that Lori had dated both Diddy and his son, Justin. Of course, Lori denied it, saying she never dated both.
With so much being said about her in the press, Lori has often laughed off the wild stories. She shared, “Because I’m so quiet, people make up all sorts of things about me. I’ve seen full-on stories about me in relationships with people I’ve never even met!” She even had to address the rumor about her supposedly dating a father and son, saying, “Not true. Absolutely not true.” And at one point, she even heard she was a lesbian, but she just shrugged it off. As for how she handles it, she said, “I think it’s hilarious. I just let it roll off my shoulder.”
A lot of people find it hard to wrap their heads around why Steve and Marjorie seemed okay with Lori’s relationship with Diddy, given the huge age gap and Diddy’s controversial history. It was even weirder when Diddy took them on vacation with Lori, and they were all acting lovey-dovey in front of Steve. Some people believe the reason Steve and Marjorie were okay with it is because they were allegedly using Lori to further their own financial interests. Cat Williams even hinted that Steve and Marjorie can’t be trusted and that there’s more to the story.
Earlier this year, Cat Williams made some explosive claims about Steve Harvey. He said Steve had “sold his soul” and was involved in Hollywood’s underground party circles—run by figures like Diddy. Williams also revealed that he had been blackballed after speaking out about Harvey Weinstein. According to Williams, Weinstein had offered him a disturbing proposition in front of his entire agency, and he turned it down. Williams said that because he refused to play along, people now avoid him, not because they think he’s bitter, but because he’s someone they have to respect—someone who didn’t take the shortcuts.
While Cat Williams stood his ground, Steve Harvey allegedly didn’t. Now, people are starting to connect the dots between Steve’s strange obsession with Lori and the things that have recently come to light about Diddy. Some even say that Steve’s favoritism toward Lori has caused some drama within his blended family, with tensions between Lori and Steve’s biological children, who feel like they’re being overshadowed. One insider shared that Steve tries to smooth things over with money or by retreating into another room to smoke a cigar. What’s more, Lori herself believes she’s Steve’s “special” child—because he treats her better than his other kids. In fact, Steve admitted that when he threatened to cut Lori off, she just laughed it off and said, “Daddy, stop.”
But things get even stranger when people suggest that Steve’s feelings for Lori might go beyond fatherly affection. Some say he dotes on her more than his own daughters, and others have even speculated that Steve might have romantic feelings for Lori. There are also whispers that Steve and Marjorie have been using Lori to make connections with powerful men like Diddy, hoping to secure more wealth and status for the family.
Steve recently gave an interview to US Weekly, where he tried to downplay these rumors by talking about how he teaches his sons to respect women and carefully vets his daughters’ boyfriends. He claimed that if a guy doesn’t meet his standards, he makes it clear and swiftly gets rid of them. “If I spot a bad one, I get rid of them. I make no bones about it,” he said. He also explained that he waits for the “mask” to come off. “Everybody’s wonderful in the beginning. The mask can last about 90 days, then it starts to unravel.”
But then you have to wonder: if Steve is so strict about who his daughters date, why didn’t he seem concerned when Lori was involved with Diddy? Didn’t he see the red flags? Why didn’t he apply the same standards when it came to Diddy? Things only got more suspicious when Gina shared in an interview with Tasha K that Diddy allegedly had compromising photos of Lori on his phone, which raises even more questions about what really went down.
Cassie shared a moment where Diddy showed her their very first photo together, and she suggested, “You should make that your screensaver.” When he didn’t know how to do it, she tried to help. But as she opened his photo album to set it up, she came across something that shocked her—there was another photo, almost identical to theirs, but this time it was of Diddy with Lori Harvey. The only difference? Lori was partially naked. Cassie only saw her upper body, but she couldn’t help but wonder what other things Diddy might have saved on his phone from his wild parties.
In her lawsuit, Cassie described how Diddy pulled her into his fast-paced, extravagant world right after they met when she was just 19 and he was nearing 40. She said that Diddy was prone to uncontrollable anger and would often take out his frustrations on her in violent ways. But it wasn’t just physical abuse. Cassie claimed Diddy used his power to manipulate her, forcing her to have sex with male escorts while he filmed everything. Diddy even controlled her life financially, paying for her cars, apartments, and clothes, and even having access to her medical records as a way of keeping her under his thumb.
One thing Cassie mentioned was Diddy’s “freak offs”—these wild parties that went on for years at high-end hotels and in his homes. The parties involved costumes, like masquerade masks and lingerie, and Cassie was required to wear white nail polish to contrast her skin with the Black men Diddy brought in for her to sleep with. Diddy filmed everything, and Cassie said she would try to delete the videos from her phone, but Diddy always found a way to access them. She even had to watch one of the videos on a flight that she thought had been erased.
This brings up questions about Lori Harvey’s relationship with Diddy. Was she involved in these same parties, or was she also pressured into taking part in things like this? Some people have pointed to a tweet by Steve Harvey, Lori’s father, where he deleted a message showing support for Diddy, and it made people wonder what the Harvey family knew about the situation. If they were aware of what Lori allegedly went through with Diddy and didn’t do anything, it would be a huge issue. The big question is: was Lori’s relationship with Diddy part of a bigger pattern of exploitation, and did her family know more than they’ve let on?
