Lori and Michael are no more, but which of the exes decided to highlight the split with
a social media purge?
Keep watching for all the details.
Lori Harvey is making it very clear that it's over with Michael B. Jordan.
People magazine revealed on June 4th that they'd gone their separate ways around a year
and a half after they started dating.
A source told the outlet,
"Michael and Lori are both completely heartbroken.
They still love each other.
[...] They had great times together and brought out the best in each other."
Another People source shed a little more light on what really happened between these two
shortly after, claiming that Harvey, who's the stepdaughter of comedian and TV personality
Steve Harvey, just wasn't ready to settle down.
The insider said,
"She is very focused on her career.
She still wants to have fun and be free.
Michael is a great guy.
She is sad that their relationship didn't work out, but she is moving on."
Notably, the two had a 10-year age gap between them — Jordan is 35, Harvey is 25 — which
could potentially have contributed to the breakup, as the source noted they realized
they want different things right now.
The former couple has yet to explicitly speak out about the breakup, though Lori just made
some moves on social media that pretty much tell us everything we need to know about what's
really going on.
Lori Harvey has undergone the post-breakup social media sweep.
Yep, eagle-eyed fans noticed that Lori had removed all trace of Michael B. Jordan from
her Instagram account after news of their split went public, with People confirming
she'd hit delete on all the pictures on her page that featured her now former man.
Ouch.
As for Jordan, as of the making of this video, he still had uploads featuring Lori on his
Instagram account, including a stunning shot from February which he captioned, "I love
her."
Social media users even began to speculate one could have blocked the other on the platform,
as they noticed Lori was no longer tagged in Michael's posts and neither's likes were
showing up on each other's profiles.
Double ouch.
But while we're still waiting for Lori or Jordan to comment, Lori's dad has spoken out.
Steve Harvey addressed the split on "The Steve Harvey Morning Show" on June 6 where he revealed
he's, quote, "Team Lori, 1000%."
"She's my daughter.
I love her, I support her, y'know?"
He then suggested nothing too dramatic happened between Lori and Michael, and that the split
was peaceful, but still issued a warning for future suitors.
"As long as you don't put your hands on my daughter, I don't give a damn what you do."
As for his thoughts on Jordan?
Steve said that the "Creed" star is, in his words, "still a cool guy," from what he knows,
and the "Family Feud" host says he's "sure they'll be fine."
And it sure doesn't seem like the two are letting their split get them down too much,
as both were clearly having fun over the weekend that followed the breakup.
Steve Harvey's stepdaughter returned to Instagram on June 5 to share stunning photos to her
Instagram Story which showed her rocking a white crop top and animal print skirt while
attending a baby shower.
As for Jordan?
That same day, he stepped out for the first time since the news went public and was photographed
at game two of the NBA finals in San Francisco.
One of the reasons Jordan and Harvey's split has gained so much attention is because the
two seemed so happy together before the news of their breakup went viral.
They even happily made their red carpet debut when they stepped out for the Vanity Fair
Oscars after party in late March, and appeared more than happy to document their date night
on social media.
Jordan was also fairly vocal about how happy he was with the skincare entrepreneur.
Though he's famous for keeping his personal life a little more private, he just couldn't
help but gush about his now former girlfriend and explained to People in April 2021 why
he didn't want to keep their romance under wraps, saying,
"I'm still private, and I want to protect that, but it just felt like it was a moment
of just wanting to put it out there and move on.
I am extremely happy."
