Hollywood romances can often feel more tangled than a bowl of spaghetti, and the story of Diddy and Lori Harvey is no exception. “You can’t handle the truth!” proclaimed Jack Nicholson in A Few Good Men, and that sentiment rings true here too. From clandestine summer getaways to Mexico and Italy in 2019 to rumors floating around about a baby bump (thank you, TMZ), the romance between Diddy and Steve Harvey’s stepdaughter has been shrouded in mystery.
Why all the intrigue? In a classic case of Hollywood hearsay, TMZ stirred the pot in 2019, by alleging that Lori Harvey was sporting a baby bump. However, the reality of their relationship is far less dramatic than the gossip suggests. The gossip mill went into overdrive with speculation about the appropriateness of this relationship. Have we all just been overthinking it?
The intriguing relationship between Diddy and Lori Harvey has been a hot topic, sending gossip columns into a frenzy. Per TMZ, she has been a long-standing friend, which makes sense given the intertwined history of the Combs and Harvey families. Diddy and Steve Harvey’s friendship dates back to 2005.
The romance rumors between Diddy and Lori Harvey really took flight in 2019, yet both played it cool, keeping their personal lives under wraps. The latter has certainly danced through the celebrity scene with style, connecting with all sorts of famous faces in music and sports, but when it came to Diddy, the couple never officially confirmed anything. Even Justin Combs, Diddy’s son, and Lori Harvey’s former flame, weighed in, hinting that privacy was their name of the game.

Then TMZ lit the fuse on pregnancy rumors after capturing Diddy rubbing Lori’s belly. One journalist couldn’t resist the quip, saying:
Diddy and his son are Eskimo brothers!
Oh, the audacity! Fast forward and there’s Diddy again, stirring the pot of speculation. So, what’s the scoop behind this rumored relationship? It’s clear that while Diddy and Harvey may have sparked some headlines, the reality is far less sensational than the tabloids would lead you to believe. Anyway, Diddy is the father of seven children already.

They say, “Where there’s smoke, there’s fire,” but in the case of Diddy and Lori Harvey, it seems more like a smoky barbecue without any ribs! As mentioned above, the buzz surrounding these two has left fans speculating whether they’re ready to become parents. But turns out, it wasn’t a baby bump they were hinting at; they were just having a bit of fun.
Reports from TMZ revealed that Diddy was simply complimenting Harvey’s impressive abs while she strutted around with her shirt open, clearly showcasing her hard work at the gym.
Despite the pregnancy chatter, things reportedly have heated up between Diddy and Steve Harvey’s daughter. However, the latter cleared the rumors, informing PEOPLE that
I’ve heard I dated a father and son before. Absolutely not true. I’ve even heard that I’m a lesbian at one point. So you know, there’s been a lot of different things, a lot stories, a lot of misconceptions.
She firmly denied the claim that she dated both a father and son, emphasizing that it’s simply not true. Additionally, she mentioned that there were even rumors suggesting she might be a lesbian at one point, indicating how wildly speculative and inaccurate public perception can be.
Overall, Lori Harvey has pointed out that there’s been a lot of misinformation about her, and she wants to set the record straight. It’s a clear message that she feels frustrated by the gossip but is determined to clarify her truth!
