The Seven Success Stories: Inside Steve Harvey's Blended Family Empire And Their Current 2025 Ventures
Steve Harvey, the iconic comedian, host, and media mogul, is arguably just as famous for his sprawling, successful blended family as he is for Family Feud. As of late 2025, the Harvey clan continues to make headlines, not just through their famous patriarch, but through their own individual, thriving careers in fashion, entrepreneurship, and media. The story of Steve, his wife Marjorie, and their seven children is a powerful testament to modern family life and collective ambition.
The secret to their unity? Steve Harvey has publicly stated that he and Marjorie reject the term "stepchildren," insisting that all seven are simply "his children." This foundation of unconditional love and support has allowed Brandi, Karli, Broderick Jr., Wynton, Morgan, Jason, and Lori to build individual empires, often with a helping hand from their famous dad, cementing their status as one of Hollywood's most powerful families.

Lori Harvey: The 2025 Update on Her High-Profile Life
Lori Harvey is arguably the most recognizable of Steve's children, having carved out a high-profile career in the fashion and beauty industries. Her status as a successful entrepreneur and model keeps her constantly in the spotlight, and she is a major entity in the celebrity world.
In 2025, the biggest buzz surrounding Lori is her dating life. After a highly publicized relationship with actor Michael B. Jordan, and a subsequent one with actor Damson Idris, speculation about her current status is constant. Latest reports suggest a possible reconciliation with Damson Idris, as the two were spotted together at a high-profile event in December 2025, fueling reunion rumors after their previous breakup in late 2023. Lori continues to be a trendsetter, using her massive social media presence to promote her successful skincare brand, SKN by LH, and her modeling career.
The Harvey Children's Collective Impact on Business and Media
While Lori dominates the headlines, the other six Harvey children are quietly building formidable, diverse empires, demonstrating a collective entrepreneurial spirit that rivals their father's. Their ventures span multiple industries, creating a powerful family brand beyond Steve’s own shows.
The Twin Powerhouse: Brandi Harvey and Karli Harvey Raymond
The eldest children, twin sisters Brandi and Karli, have leveraged their platform to focus on personal development and empowerment. Brandi's Beyond Her brand is a significant player in the wellness space, offering resources and events specifically for women of color, and her book is a guide to personal breakthrough.
Karli, an international host and speaker, often works alongside her sister, but also runs her own ventures as an entrepreneur and editor. Her focus on relationships and motherhood, sharing glimpses of life with her husband and son, Benjamin Raymond, resonates strongly with her audience.
From Fashion to Film: Jason and Broderick Jr.'s Design and Executive Roles
Both Jason and Broderick Jr. have made a name for themselves in the world of fashion and design. Jason Harvey's luxury menswear brand, Need, has been a staple, but his recent move into the executive world, working on streaming success for BET+, highlights his multifaceted business acumen in 2025.
Broderick Harvey Jr. also focuses on fashion with his street-style label, Need Money Not Friends. He has managed to keep a lower profile than some of his siblings but remains a key figure in the family's entrepreneurial ventures, often collaborating on projects with his father.
The Next Generation: Steve Harvey's Eight Grandchildren
The Harvey legacy extends to the third generation, with Steve Harvey boasting eight grandchildren, a fact he often jokes about on his shows. The grandchildren are the children of Karli, Morgan, and Jason, and are the true beneficiaries of the "blended family" success story.
The names of Steve Harvey's grandchildren are Benjamin "BJ" Raymond (Karli's son), Elle Hawthorne and Marley Hawthorne (Morgan's daughters), and Rose Harvey, Ezra Harvey, Noah Harvey, and Joey Harvey (Jason's children). This large, tight-knit group is a central pillar of the family's public image, frequently appearing on Marjorie and Steve's social media and even making television debuts. The family's ability to maintain unity across multiple marriages, careers, and generations is often cited as a blueprint for successful modern blended families.
