His Instagram account is filled with photos of the legend from different places with friends and well-wishers. Recently, a video went viral in which he was seen talking about the value of a stable relationship in a man’s life.

Talking to his fans, Irvin gave a gem of wisdom to some of his fans. He said that everyone talks about the good nights they enjoyed at parties, but no one will ever tell you about the lonely nights. He then added, “All great men have to mitigate the kid in him so it doesn’t mess up the KING in him. So he can reach his destiny and not get lost in his history.” Summing it up perfectly, he reminded his fans that the men need an anchor. The men need someone to say, “Come Home.”

His words bear a strong resemblance to his own life. After meeting Sandy Harrell at the University of Miami, both exchanged vows in 1990. Their perfect relationship has been going on for 34 years.

No matter what it takes.” The legend is keeping the promise of a lifetime.
