Snoop Dogg & Shante Broadus

Fans of Snoop Dogg may be surprised to learn that he is quite the romantic when it comes to his wife, Shante Broadus. He now owns massive investments, but the two met in high school for reasons other than money. Like most marriages, it’s been a roller coaster ride, but with three children and grandchildren, his family appears to be doing well.When Snoop met Shante in high school, he was still Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr. She was a typical high school student with many interests outside of music, while he was already a practicing rapper.

Despite this, the two began dating and married in 1997 at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in Marina Del Rey, California. The couple started to drift apart due to the rigors of fame and constant touring, and Snoop Dogg filed for separation in 2004 on the grounds of irreconcilable differences. However, he changed his mind and decided not to push through the split. In a profession that doesn’t appear to favor long-term relationships, Snoop Dogg and Shante tied the knot not once but twice.
