Steve Harvey Morning Show co-host Shirley Strawberry will be the subject of her own “Strawberry Letter” on Monday, Sept. 11.
Shirley’s popular Strawberry Letter segment discusses topics including marital problems, personal issues, family troubles, and other life problems. The show is heard in the Atlanta area on Majic 107.5 / 97.5 from 6A-10A.
In a promo that ran on Friday morning, Steve said Monday’s Strawberry Letter, titled “I didn’t know my life was a real live strawberry letter” — is “’bout to get real.” Steve said they will discuss “What got said, how everybody felt…”
IT ALL STARTED WITH THIS :
Shirley made blog headlines after a YouTuber leaked jailhouse phone calls between Shirley and her jailed husband, Earnest “Ernesto” Williams. The calls were placed between October 2022 and July 2023. Both parties were warned that the calls were being recorded.
In Thursday’s leaked jailhouse audio from November 2022, Shirley feared that her job may be in jeopardy if it got out publicly that her husband was in jail for fraud and other serious charges.
Shirley, 69, said she spoke with her boss, Steve, who reminded her of a conduct clause in her contract with iHeart Radio in Atlanta.
Steve, 66, reportedly told Shirley to distance herself from Ernesto or she would risk losing her job.
Shirley’s career began in Chicago as co-host of The Doug Banks Show. She was later offered a gig on The Beat, on KKBT-FM in Los Angeles, before landing a job on The Steve Harvey Morning Show.
In the latest leaked phone call, a nervous Shirley seemed to anticipate losing her job. She told Ernesto she might move to Los Angeles after losing everything, including her home, car and $200,000 wedding ring.
Ernesto subtly told her to “walk away” and “do what you got to do.” But Shirley dug in her heels.
“Well, honey, let me ask you this — and I’m asking you this ’cause I want to be crystal clear,” she said, “You’re not talking about divorce are you?”
In a phone call leaked on Sept. 6, Shirley expressed envy over the ultra lavish lifestyle of her boss’s wife, Marjorie Harvey.
Shirley talked about Steve’s high-maintenance wife, Marjorie, who is living a luxury lifestyle that Shirley can only “dream” about.
“You know what… Marjorie has her own workout room and her own spa. She could go in there and get massages every day,” Shirley told Ernesto. “People come to her house and work her out – all of that. I was like, oh, god, what a dream.”
When Ernesto asked if Marjorie looks old, Shirley said Marjorie wasn’t at home when she visited.
“If she was there we probably wouldn’t have been all over the house,” Shirley laughed. She suggested that Steve is “scared” of Marjorie.
“She looks at us as the help,” Shirley said later in the phone call. “That’s not a good feeling,” said Ernesto.......SO MUCH MORE LAWD HAVE MERCY !!!
