Michael B. Jordan was recently invited to host SNL. During his opening monologue, the actor addressed his breakup with Lori Harvey for the first time. He revealed that he has a Raya account. Raya is an exclusive dating app for celebrities, requiring approval for them to get on.
Jordan stated that this was his first public breakup. He jokes that while most people try getting in shape after a relationship ends, he felt lost as he was already in good condition. So instead, he opted to learn another language.
SNL female cast members make passes at Jordan
The revelation that Jordan was single led to female SNL cast members showing their interest in him. This included Punkie Johnson, Ego Nwodim, Heidi Gardner, and Chloe Fineman. Nwodim went as far as wearing a wedding dress while Johnson made fun of her sexuality stating that while she might be lesbian, she would jump at the chance to date Jordan and that even vegans had cheat days. This scene was unsurprising as Jordan was voted PEOPLE’s Sexiest Man Alive in 2020.
Jordan took part in several funny sketches, including one where he played Jake From State Farm. He played a Southwestern agent in another where they made fun of the airline. Another sketch showed Jordan and other cast members, including Bowen Yang, recording sound effects where they made grunts for a fighting video game.
Jordan was not the only exciting part of the show as Lil Baby made his SNL debut. To the audience’s delight, the artists first performed California Breeze, then Forever. These songs are part of his third studio album, It’s Only Me, which he released in October 2022.
Sources say that Jordan grew during the relationship with Harvey
Jordan and Harvey dated for two years until their relationship ended in June 2022. However, sources have stated that both are still heartbroken over their breakup and still love each other. Moreover, Jordan is said to have matured during the relationship and was ready for something long-term. Sources also claim that this was the first relationship where Jordan let his guard down and opened up to someone emotionally.
Harvey has been more open about the breakup
While this is the first time Jordan has spoken about his breakup, Harvey has been more vocal about the end of her relationship. In an interview on August 2022 on an interview on Bumble’s Luv2SeeIt, a popular web series on YouTube, Harvey opens up about how she was almost married too young. She states that she didn’t know who she was at the time and hadn’t experienced life.
However, Harvey didn’t specifically say this was about her relationship with Jordan. Despite this, sources have stated that the reason for their breakup was that she wants ready to commit, thus the reason people think she might have been referring to Jordan.
After her breakup with Jordan, Harvey states that she decided to date on her terms. She would move what she wanted but step away if it no longer served her. She also opened up about what she’s learned from her relationship, including how she didn’t know she was a poor communicator until her relationship. She also mentions what she considers red flags, such as being too close to an ex. However, she acknowledges she won’t want to see someone with a bad relationship with their ex as it can get too messy.
Harvey is currently dating Damon Idris
Jordan is currently not in a relationship. Harvey, on the other hand, is dating Damon Idris. The latter confirmed their relationship through a social media post on January 23. Rumors that they were dating started in December 2022 when fans spotted them going to dinner at Catch Restaurant in California.
