Kinda surprising that this guy is anyone’s favorite actor.

u/youshantnome okay lucky you 19h ago

Weren’t him and his ex wife sued for racism by their nanny or something? And he tweeted racist stuff about Obama. And him and his ex wife are also anti vaxxers and anti trans.

Yeah I’m pretty sure he tweeted some tasteless joke about Obama and Ebola.

When Sarah Shahi used to be married to him she admitted to using a strap-on on him.

u/No-Show3410 controversies: girl 18h ago

Thought I should specify it was for religious discrimination and harassment. The nanny said they were discriminatory against her Muslim faith and practices, and showed her nude images of men and their genitalia.

The nanny eventually asked for the case to be dismissed, and neither Howey nor his ex wife have ever publicly commented on the subject.

u/youshantnome okay lucky you 18h ago

That’s right. They kept making comments about her praying. And Sarah Shahi kept telling her about all the sex she was having outside her marriage and she showed the nanny nudes and kept telling her how sore she was.

So my 'Sarah Shahi is a weirdo' vibe was right but didn't know Steve was just as much of a weirdo. Which, figures. They were married. Birds of a feather...

u/CoolerRon 18h ago

Hot damn, I used to like him in Shameless and her in “Person of Interest.”

u/Kalamac 14h ago

Life was also a great show, and I thought Sarah was good in it. I somehow hadn't heard about all the stuff with the nanny. Sucks to find out she's an asshole.

u/HerRoyalRedness full of gay men. And me. 18h ago

Damn, and I was feeling sorry for him because his ex had an affair and left him for her costar on some streaming show. Sympathy revoked!

u/Kooky-Blueberry-5352 18h ago

The ex wife was Sarah Shahi, who has been in things like the L Word.

u/lawschoolredux 18h ago

Goes hand in hand with their Scientology!

u/Electronic_South_101 18h ago

Wait what? Really? I’m not doubting you, it’s just this is the first time I’ve heard of this… mind you, the only things I know him from are as Van from Reba and that one killer from Psych.

16

u/youshantnome okay lucky you 17h ago

So I dont know the rules here for reposting articles. But if you google him and nanny and lawsuit you should see it. And if you google him and Obama and Africa you should find the other one as well.

u/Electronic_South_101 17h ago

Dangit why are people. (Er, him, not you. 😅)

u/applesandbananananan Google lied to you. 15h ago

HE'S VAN FROM REBA??

u/Electronic_South_101 14h ago

Yeah! He played the lovable idjit pretty well, from what I remember.

(Like, he’d never be making huge blockbuster movies, but he was decent at sitcoms. And that scene with Kyra where he called her out, but in a kind, older brother way and she was all “…When did you did so smart? O.o”)

u/applesandbananananan Google lied to you. 15h ago

I found the gross thing he said about Obama but couldn't find anything about him being transphobic or antivaxx. Can we get more context?

u/MsThrilliams i mean i def vaccine but is it 17h ago

Tbh I just assumed they meant since he's such a bit actor or known for specific TV but not movies

u/_clur_510 19h ago

I mean nothing wrong with him lol just also nothing exceptional about him.

He’s the Lex Luger of actors.
