In his song “Life Is Good (Remix),” Future bragged about his relationship with the model. He also referenced Lori’s birthday getaway trip to Jamaica and the Family Feud host’s net worth, which is estimated at $45 million, according to Forbes. “Who causin' a racket in Jamaica on the weekend? / Half a ticket on vacation, I ripped up the receipt / And she call me daddy 'cause my money long like Stevie,” Future rapped over the D.HillOZ and Ambezza-produced track.

Since going public with their relationship in January 2020, Steve, 63, has remained tight-lipped regarding his opinion on the union. Around the same time, a reporter asked Steve for a statement on his stepdaughter’s relationship. “How do you feel about your daughter dating Future?” the reporter asked. With a straight face, Steve replied, “I don’t know nothing about it.”

Unlike Steve, his wife, Marjorie, appeared to be in favor of her daughter’s boyfriend. In a heartfelt birthday post dedicated to Lori, Marjorie ended her caption with “Life Is Good,” which is seemingly in reference to Future’s song.
