Let me tell you, folks, Steve Harvey is undeniably the king of the hill over at Family Feud. But here’s the scoop: sources close to the show are whispering to Closer that Steve’s temper flares might be turning him into a modern-day Pat Sajak — and not in a good way. Pat, as you may recall, became a bit of a grumpy old man during his later years on Wheel of Fortune, and the producers are worried Steve might be heading down a similar path.
Steve’s Sharp Words Leave Contestants Stunned
Now, picture this: Steve, the ever-charismatic host, is asking a seemingly lighthearted question during a recent episode. “Women love a man in uniform. Men love a woman in what?” Sounds simple enough, right? Well, things took a turn when a contestant named Jeff hesitated before answering. He even joked that his wife wouldn’t approve of his response. But what came out of his mouth left everyone, including Steve, speechless.
“The kitchen,” Jeff replied. Steve’s reaction was swift and, let’s say, less than diplomatic. “Yeah, I gotta tell ya… That’s about the stupidest thing you could have said!” Steve snapped, leaving the audience and contestants alike wide-eyed. Sources say that Steve’s outburst had executives burying their faces in their hands. They’re concerned that Steve’s behavior could tarnish the show’s reputation, which has skyrocketed under his leadership.

The Pressure Behind the Scenes
Steve’s 67 years old now, and he’s been hosting Family Feud for 14 years. He’s become an integral part of the show’s success, but it seems the pressure is mounting. Insiders suggest that Steve might be feeling the strain of his demanding schedule, or perhaps there’s something happening at home that’s affecting his mood. “Steve’s worked tirelessly to keep the show fresh and exciting,” one insider reveals. “But calling contestants out for their answers and labeling them as ‘stupid’ right to their face? That’s not what people signed up for.”
And let’s not forget about Steve’s family life. His daughter, Lori Harvey, has been in the spotlight for her high-profile dating life. At 27, she’s been linked to a who’s who of celebrities, including Damson Idris, Michael B. Jordan, Sean “Diddy” Combs, Trey Songz, Future, Justin Combs, and Andrew Tate. “Lori’s love life has been all over the news, and Steve’s wondering when she’ll settle down,” the insider adds. “It’s possible that this is all just a phase, but some are worried it might escalate into something bigger.”
Lessons from Pat Sajak’s Career
Now, let’s take a moment to remember Pat Sajak. Pat was once the golden boy of game shows, but toward the end of his Wheel of Fortune run, he started displaying some less-than-stellar behavior. There were reports of him being rude to contestants and even his longtime cohost, Vanna White. Ultimately, it led to Pat’s decision to step away from the show. Producers are keen to avoid a repeat of that situation with Steve Harvey. They’re hoping this is just a passing phase and that Steve can get back to being the charming, engaging host we all know and love.
So, what’s next for Steve Harvey? Will he continue to reign as the beloved host of Family Feud, or will his temper get the better of him? Only time will tell. For now, let’s hope he finds a way to balance the pressures of his professional and personal life, ensuring that Family Feud remains the fun, family-friendly show we’ve all come to adore.
