Steve Harveywas a bit skeptical when he first met daughterLori Harvey’s boyfriendMichael B. Jordan, but it didn’t take long for him to come around.
“He is genuinely who he who he looks like he is,” the comedian told the outlet. “I mean, like, it threw me off at first, because he was so kind.”
“You know, I figure, ‘OK, this is the game right?’ But it wasn’t, man,” he said, adding, “this dude was sincere and he’s proven to be a really, really good, good guy. I’m pulling for him, you know, for them.”
Lori, 24, and Jordan made their relationshipInstagram officialin January after rumors of their romance blossomed in late 2020.

Steve toldETthat the happy couple is still doing well despite the pressures of a public relationship.
“I mean, look man, being in a relationship in Hollywood is hard. It’s really, really hard, there are so many traps and pitfalls in it,” Harvey explained, adding, however: “but they’re doing well.”
“It’s the first time I’ve been happy for her [in a relationship],” the actor added. “And it’s the first time she’s been happy.”
Last November, Jordan revealed to PEOPLE what exactly he longs for in a romantic partner as the reigningSexiest Man Alive.
“A sense of humor, true understanding, because [an actor’s] life is not conducive to a relationship—it’s really not,“a then-single Jordan explained. “Somebody that’s nurturing. I’ve got a list. That’s probably why my ass is still single, but yeah, it’s a list.”
Jordan told PEOPLE in Aprilthat he is “still private” about his love life and plans to “protect that” accordingly. “I am extremely happy,” theBlack Pantherstar said at the time.
