Steve Harvey's wife, Marjorie is standing right by her man following the Family Feud host's embarrassing Miss Universe sham on Sunday, December 20.

"You are a Stand Up Man and A True Class Act the way you went back out on the stage on live TV and took full responsibility alone… I am so proud to be your wife! I love you," She wrote on on Monday, December 21, as she captioned a red carpet photo of the twosome.

The daytime talk show host, 58, has been apologizing since naming Miss Colombia Ariadna Gutierrez the next Miss Universe instead of the real winner, Miss Philippines Pia Wurtzbach, during the pageant's live telecast on Sunday.

"I'd like to apologize wholeheartedly to Miss Colombia & Miss Philippines for my huge mistake. I feel terrible," he tweeted on Sunday night. "Secondly, I'd like to apologize to the viewers at [home] that I disappointed as well. Again it was an honest mistake. I don't want to take away from this amazing night and pageant. As well as the wonderful contestants. They were all amazing."

"I was confused. I wasn't sure what was going on," Wurtzbach told Entertainment Tonight on Sunday. "I had to ask my [manager] many times like, 'Did I really win? Am I really Miss Universe? Are you going to take the crown from me now?' And they [said], 'No, no, you're really the winner.'"
