Steve Harvey's ex wife Mary recently took to YouTube to lash out against him in two videos, so now Steve is firing back...on his radio show.

OK! NEWS: STEVE HARVEY'S EX WIFE CLAIMS HE CHEATED, TOOK THEIR SON & LEFT HER HOMELESS?

My father always taught me, he'd say, ‘Son, there's three sides to every story—there's their side, your side and the truth,'" Steve said on the air Tuesday (via E! News).

Mary claimed in her videos that Steve cheated with other women and took their son from her and turned him against her.

"I know the truth," he said in response to Mary's claims. "My son is coming into the room crying. And that's what hurts me, why you would do this. And I don't even understand the purpose. I mean, I got you're mad, but she's talking about 12 years ago. That's what we're doin' now?"

"The truth's gonna come out," Harvey continued. "Because once you go public, you allow people to start asking questions…I'm just more concerned about my son, who I happen to have total custody of. He doesn't deserve the questions."

But Steve also said he's very familiar with this type of drama.

"I've been famous a long time," he explained. "I've dealt with this all before...But things will be dealt with in the proper fashion this time."

Steve married Mary in 1996 and called it quits in 2005. He's attorney said they will go after Mary "to rectify this matter to the full extent of the law."

"A lot of it's lies," Steve explained on the radio show. "I don't want nobody to do nothing. Here's my job as a father to my son: I have taught him to just be respectful of his mother and women overall."

"What he can't do is see me making particular accusations and rants…and I'm not going to," he added. "It is still his mother and I'm his father, and it's my job to raise him right."
