Who Was He Married to?
Steven was married to a professional singer Delsi-May. Her stage name is Ruby Washington. Ruby has been singing since 1982.
She revealed in an interview that she got an opportunity to record at a young age.
While signing a recording contract, they took a photograph of her and when they returned they had “Ruby Washington” on them.
She wanted to change her name back to her original name but people had already started knowing her as Ruby Washington.

His elder son’s important role in Ollie's career
Dale was a huge football lover and used to play football at an early age. Unfortunately, he broke his leg when he was around 17 years old.

Although Dale's dream of playing football professionally came to a tragic end, he provided guidance to his baby brother which played a major role in his success.
