On Friday, May 13, Harvey spilled the beans to her eager fans on how she attained her remarkable frame and shed weight via a TikTok video.

The daughter of the famous Steve Harvey and his wife, Majorie Elaine, began her recording as she was driving away from her pilates class. She celebrated girls signing up for pilates and continued saying:

"Everybody's been asking like what it is I specifically did to get my body to this point. So when Mike and I got together, I gained like 15 pounds of relationship weight, and it was horrible, none of my clothes fit, it was just not OK."

Harvey revealed she consistently did Pilates for about twelve months, although she inconsistently did it for a few years prior. She detailed her exercise regimen, saying:

"When I was trying to drop weight, I was working out like five, six times a week, and I would even do, for the first month and a half, I would even do two-a-days."

"I think I was consuming like 1,200 calories in a day, max. I was trying to do like meat and veggies and like minimal carbs."

In an interview with WMagazine, the SKN by LH founder recalled her 2017 appearance at the prestigious fashion event. Dolce & Gabbana had invited her after she starred in their #DGMillennials campaign.

The 25-year-old said her nerves left her frozen on the red carpet, unable to climb the steps while various celebrities passed by her. 

Although the ushers at the event implored the socialite to move, she stayed on the spot until the carpet event ended. This prevented her from enjoying the ceremony itself.

Harvey arrived at the 2022 Met Gala as a guest of Michael Kors, who she regards as one of the fashion industry’s most iconic talents with his trendsetting designs.

Although Kors sent over different sketches for her dress, the skincare founder fell in “love at first sight” with the black number.

The "A Journal For Jordan" actor's girlfriend credited the piece for screaming “glamor, elegance, and opulence" with its eye-catching criss-cross bodice and long train.

The cut-out dress also flaunted the model’s enviable rock-hard abs. She completed the theme with two giant diamond rings on each hand, provided by the luxurious Gismondi 1754 jewelry brand.
