This video clearly demonstrates that Steve Harvey used the ABC Family Feud platform as part of an ongoing pattern of harassment and stalking directed at me, Essie Berry. What makes this especially disturbing is that this conduct occurred in plain sight—publicly, openly, and without fear of consequence.
Multiple individuals recognized what was happening and took the time to write to Family Feud and to ABC, expressing concern and asking that the behavior stop. Despite these warnings, the conduct did not stop. Instead, it continued, as though my safety and well-being were irrelevant.
Using a nationally televised platform to target, intimidate, or monitor a private individual is not entertainment—it is an abuse of power. It sends a message that someone with fame, influence, and access to major media can act without accountability while the person being targeted is left unprotected.
What makes this even more painful is that this harassment did not happen in secret. It happened in broad daylight, in front of millions of viewers, while I was already living in fear from years of intimidation and threats. Each public instance reinforced the feeling that I could not escape, that I was being watched, and that no place—online or offline—was safe.
I reported this behavior. Others reported it on my behalf. Yet no meaningful action was taken to protect me or even investigate what was happening. That silence from a major network added another layer of emotional harm. It felt like my life and safety mattered less than protecting a public image.
This video is not speculation—it is part of a documented pattern. It shows how influence and media access were allegedly used to continue harassment, rather than stop it. It shows how a platform meant for families was turned into a tool that caused fear, humiliation, and emotional distress.
I did not choose this. I did not consent to this. And I did not deserve to be targeted this way.
What happened to me was not accidental. It was sustained, public, and deeply damaging. This video matters because it shows the truth—openly, clearly, and without distortion.”
