Urkel, he's not: "Family Matters" star Darius McCrary is one bad mamma jamma. According to his estranged girlfriend, self-proclaimed "Video Vixen" Karrine Steffans, he assaulted her on several occasions -- the most recent just yesterday when she says he tried to run her over with his car.
Steffans tells TMZ that she's known McCrary, who played Eddie Winslow on the show, for nine years, and lived with him "as husband and wife" for just under a year. In August of 2007, Steffans, whose real name is Karinne Stephens, filed a police report claiming McCrary choked her "til she passed out."
The case went to the L.A. City Attorney, but was dropped after Karrine admits she lied to protect McCrary. "I didn't want him going to prison," she tells us, "so I told them I was drunk and didn't remember what happened." And it doesn't stop there!
Steffans says it got heated again last week after she kicked McCrary to the curb for not pulling his weight around the house. Steffans' son then "had an emotional breakdown" after not seeing McCrary for several days, so Steffans says she went to find her ex -- to talk. She claims he was calm at first, but then became irate, getting into his car and backing towards her and hitting her. McCrary then sped off, running over her foot. She filed a police report hours later, and says she's working on getting a restraining order.
A call to McCrary's rep for comment was not immediately returned.

If they do it ONE time, they will do it again......................she should have had his ass thrown in prison the first time! I can't feel sorry for her now!

I CAN'T BELIEVE ANYONE BELIEVES THIS BEEZY! FIRST OF ALL, IF THIS HAPPENS TO A "CELEBRITY", WHO CONTACTS THE MEDIA TO LET THEM KNOW? NONE OF THEM! NAME ONE! THE ONLY TIME YOU FIND OUT ABOUT THESE SITUATION IS WHEN THE MEDIA HAS FOUND OUT AND MAKES THE REPORT! SHE PERSONALLY TEXTED PEREZ HILTON (ACCORDING TO HIM) TO REACH OUT AND HELP OTHERS TO STOP THIS...AT 4AM! WHO DOES THAT!
JUST GO AWAY! I FEEL BAD FOR HER SON!
Didn't (Stephen) Urkel also change his name to Steffan Ur-kell on the show? Weird.
She is such a liar! However, he knew what type of person she was..... I cannot feel sorry for him.
How is this an exclusive when it was on Perez yesterday morning? She texted him with all the details 24 hours ago!
This woman is sooooooooooooooo crazy. She'll do anything and say anything to sell a book...and sell her "friends, lovers, fellow whoremungers out." Why any man would be interested in a woman who has sex with any male or female is beyond me..Come on guys...Good girls who are decent and honorable can give good brain also!
MAYBE HE WAS CHOKING HER OUT OF LOVE TO AROUSE HER SEXUALLY. HE LOOKS A FREAK NASTY ON THE DOWN LOW.
My family has known Darius since he was a little boy. He was a nice little boy. I ran into him a few years ago and it was nice seeing him. I'm shocked to hear that he has turned into a woman beater. What happened Darius?!!! Karrine is a cool lady and does not deserve to be abused by a man.
Darius,Darius,Darius. Superhead,Superhead,Superhead. Darlings, no matter how hard you try, you can't change a ho into a housewife. You two are from two opposite sides of the spectrum. Beating her into a good woman will not change the fact that she is a bonafide ho. And , darling, convincing him that you can change is stupid too. We'll continue to pray for you two. Darius, you should find someone your speed. And same for you Ms. Steffans, whatever that might be.
