Snoop Dogg and Shante Broadus are high school sweethearts
Shante Broadus and the rapper first crossed paths in their teens as both attended Long Beach Polytechnic High School.
The pair were each other’s prom dates, with Snoop having previously shared a picture of them on Instagram. On their 19th anniversary in 2016, the rapper shared a snap of them both at prom.

Talking with Cheat Sheet last year, Shante explained that she and her husband first met through a mutual friend at a high school football game.
At that time, Shante declined to give him her digits, but after running to each other again and again, she gave in after Snoop insisted.
They have been married for 25 years
Snoop Dogg and his wife Shante Broadus tied the knot on June 12, 1997. 25 years passed, and the couple is still unshakable despite a brief split in 2004.
According to E! News, the reason was ‘irreconcilable difference,’ but he didn’t go through with it in the end.
Snoop withdrew from proceedings, and renewed their vows four years later, in 2008. Ahead of the couple’s wedding anniversary, 2022, both celebrated three decades of love anniversary.

Shante Broadus has always been at her husband’s side
Snoop’s rise in the rap industry came in the early nineties, but Shante, his wife, had been a supporter prior to his career debut.
In an interview with W Magazine, Shante proudly admitted that she was one of the earliest supporters before he rose to fame. She said,
‘I was there with him when he started all this. Even before he came out [as a musician], our friends and I were his fans. We would always listen to his songs and give our opinions.’

During Snoop’s early career, Shante became his first manager, and in 2021, Snoop appointed her as one once again. In a press release by PRNewswire, the rapper credited her as one who helped guide him through his career from ‘day one.’
