The 33-year-old actor’s post received more than 1.7 million likes on the photo-sharing platform.

Harvey, who became television host Steve Harvey’s adopted daughter after he married her mother Marjorie Bridges, went with a Polaroid photo collage.

The 24-year-old beauty, who was seen beaming in one image as Jordan leans in to kiss her cheek, captioned the post with a brown heart.

The happy news put an end to months of speculation about the couple’s relationship status.

They sparked romance rumours in November after TMZ spotted them arriving at the Atlanta airport in Harvey’s hometown for the Thanksgiving holiday.

The lovebirds were then seen again in late December in Salt Lake City for a snowy New Year’s Eve getaway.

In his “Sexiest Man Alive” interview with People.com, Jordan said “a sense of humour, true understanding, because (an actor’s) life is not conducive to a relationship” were important qualities in a partner.

“Somebody that’s nurturing. I’ve got a list,” he said.

Harvey, who has modelled for Chanel, Dolce & Gabbana and Calvin Klein, previously dated the rapper Future while Jordan is known to be notoriously private about his love life.
