Marjorie Harvey, the wife of American television broadcaster Steve Harvey, has been accused of cheating on him with his bodyguard, William ‘Big Boom’ Freeman. According to GHPage, Marjorie has filed for divorce and has sought $200 million from the star.
This comes only hours after the 66-year-old celebrity asked his fans to name a comic who does not make them laugh in a contentious tweet. He revealed that the tweet was shared by his social media manager, who was sacked immediately after sharing the offensive tweet. According to the media site Marca, he wrote: “Somebody that works for me on my Twitter put a statement out that was totally negative. I gotta take responsibility for it ’cause they work for me, but the engagement was talking about naming a comedian you don’t think is funny.’ Why would I do something like that? That doesn’t even make no damn sense.”
While he later stated that he did not tweet it, the actor is currently trending on Twitter amid speculations that his wife, Marjorie, has filed for divorce amid suspicions of her alleged romance with Steve Harvey’s bodyguard, William ‘Big Boom’ Freeman.
Everything you need to know about William ‘Big Boom’ Freeman
William ‘Big Boom’ Freeman has been Steve Harvey’s bodyguard for many years. He is headquartered in Texas. According to his website, IAmBigBoom, he is a “celebrated relationship speaker, author, and celebrity bodyguard.”
His bio included the following information: “He has provided for his celebrity clients conspicuous or inconspicuous protective services depending on the threat or potential hazards to the client. His ability to protect his client lies in his ability to immediately assess and evaluate a threat or conflict, avoid a confrontation, or diffuse it before it escalates. He is implementing the same protection of his celebrity clients, to protect the ‘hearts of women.'”
Questionable past of Steve Harvey’s bodyguard
Harvey had employed Freeman for several years before he met his current wife, Marjorie. He is also Steve’s personal chef and a radio personality. According to rumors, before they married, Steve Harvey’s bodyguard persuaded him that Marjorie was the appropriate lady for him.
However, the bodyguard reportedly had a troubled past before becoming famous for protecting Steve Harvey. Several news agencies, including RadarOnline, reported in 2017 that William was a former pimp who boasted about his past and abused women. According to his website bio, as a pimp, he “preyed on women to gain a sense of power and self.”
Despite his claims that his bad boy days are past, Steve’s ex-wife, Mary, claims in her newest lawsuit that he continues to conduct Steve’s dirty deeds. She claims, for example, that he compelled the star’s son, Wynton to drop out of college in Florida and return to Chicago in 2015. As of this writing, Steve Harvey has not responded to the reports about his marriage.
