Snoop Dogg and Shante Broadus have been married for 27 years, and they’re still going strong. So, what’s the secret to their long-lasting marriage? According to Shante, it’s pretty simple: keep it fun. At the Choc Factory Cosmetics launch event on February 15, she opened up about the importance of having fun in a relationship. She explained that while Snoop is often away on tour, they make sure to stay connected and enjoy their time together when they’re not working. Shante believes keeping things light and fun helps them maintain a strong bond. It’s all about finding the right balance between love, laughter, and business.
A High School Romance That Lasted
Snoop and Shante’s love story began in high school. They met as teenagers at Long Beach Polytechnic High School in California. The couple went to prom together in 1989. Just eight years later, they tied the knot, and their journey as a married couple began. Since then, they’ve built a beautiful family together. They have three children: sons Cordé, 30, and Cordell, 27, and daughter Cori, 25. Snoop also has a 26-year-old son, Julian, from a previous relationship. Through it all, their relationship has stood the test of time, and they’re still going strong after more than two decades of marriage.
Still Keeping It Romantic
Even after nearly three decades, romance is still alive in the Broadus household. Shante and Snoop continue to surprise each other with thoughtful gifts and gestures. Recently, Snoop gifted Shante a brand-new watch, while she gave him presents from Louis Vuitton for Valentine’s Day. These little acts of love and appreciation show that romance doesn’t fade with time. It’s clear that they’re both committed to keeping the spark alive, despite their busy lives and long years together.
Tough Times? Stick It Out
For Shante, the key to their successful marriage is sticking together through the tough times. She believes in supporting each other, even when things aren’t easy. “Just hold each other down,” Shante said. She knows there will be ups and downs, but sticking together and working through the challenges is what makes a strong relationship. Family is everything to Shante, and she’s dedicated to teaching her children the importance of sticking together. She wants them to understand that love isn’t always smooth sailing, but it’s worth fighting for.
Cori’s Take on Love
Cori Broadus, the couple’s daughter, has been watching her parents’ relationship for years. As she prepares for her own wedding and the arrival of her first baby with fiancé Wayne Deuce, she’s taking her mother’s advice to heart. Cori knows that relationships come with their challenges, but she believes in the power of sticking together through it all. “No matter what happens, stick together,” she shared. “It’s not always going to be easy, but if you can get through it, that’s what matters.” Cori has seen firsthand what it takes to make a relationship work, and she’s determined to carry those lessons into her own future.
A New Chapter: Choc Factory Cosmetics
Cori and Wayne Deuce are now embarking on a new business venture: Choc Factory Cosmetics. The new self-care brand offers a range of products designed to help women embrace their natural beauty. The line includes lip glosses, lip masks, and other beauty essentials that encourage women to feel comfortable in their own skin. Cori is passionate about giving people a space to be themselves, without feeling pressured by society’s unrealistic beauty standards. She believes the beauty industry can be exclusionary, and she wants to change that with her brand. “We’re giving them a realistic space to be their natural self,” Cori said. It’s all about creating a brand that makes people feel good about themselves, inside and out.
Embracing Natural Beauty
Cori’s message for Choc Factory Cosmetics is clear: it’s time to embrace natural beauty. “With society’s beauty standards being so high, we’re providing a place where people can feel comfortable,” she explained. This brand is about more than just makeup; it’s about empowering women to be confident in their own skin. Cori’s mission is to create a community where everyone feels like they belong, regardless of their appearance. In a world where beauty standards can be unrealistic and damaging, Cori’s brand offers a refreshing alternative. It’s a space where women can celebrate their natural selves without pressure to conform to anyone else’s idea of beauty.
