After days of rumors surrounding Michael B. Jordan and Lori Harvey's relationship status, Steve Harvey has confirmed that his daughter and the actor have parted ways after more than a year of dating.

The TV host weighed in on the pair's breakup during Monday's episode of "The Steve Harvey Morning Show," E! News reported.

"I feel fine. I'm fine. I still gotta go to work. I still gotta take care of my family," the 65-year-old comedian joked while discussing how he feels about the relationship coming to an end. "I'm team Lori, 1,000%. She's my daughter. I love her, I support her."

Steve noted that it is difficult to have a successful relationship while in the limelight, but he suggested that there are no hard feelings between Lori and Jordan.

"Look, as long as everybody can walk away in peace, be friends...I ain't heard nobody say they busted no windows or nothing," he said. "As long as you don't put your hands on my daughter, I don't give a damn what you do."

When his model daughter was still dating Jordan, the "Family Feud" host praised the "Black Panther" actor numerous times in interviews, calling him a "great guy." It appears that the split hasn't changed the comedian's opinion of Jordan.

"He's still a cool guy...from what I know. It's a breakup. I'm pretty sure they'll be fine. People break up all the time," said Steve, who has been married three times, before joking: "I just wish I could have broken up without the cost factor! I got to start learning from my children, get out early! I waited way too late."

Lori, 25, and Jordan, 35, first sparked romance rumors in late 2020 shortly before going Instagram official in January 2021.

On Monday, an unnamed insider told People that the two were no longer together.

"Michael and Lori are both completely heartbroken," the source said. "They still love each other."

The insider did not provide the reason for the breakup but said that Jordan "matured a lot over the course of their relationship and was ready to commit for the long term" before they called it quits.

Lori has since deleted all photos of her ex-boyfriend from her Instagram.

Meanwhile, Jordan was spotted for the first time since the split at Game 2 of the 2022 NBA Finals in San Francisco, California, Sunday.

"MBJ went right to his seat upon arrival," an eyewitness told E! News. "He didn't do much cheering. He wasn't his usual excited self tonight."
