Kevin Hart is an open book when it comes to talking about his personal life, particularly the human side of him that makes mistakes. In the 2019 Netflix documentary series Kevin Hart: Don’t F**k This Up, the comedian laid bare his life, sharing the controversies that have surrounded him including the public revelation of his cheating scandal

Back in 2017, the Jumanji: Welcome to The Jungle actor publicly apologized to his family – wife Eniko Parrish and their children – for engaging in an intimate relationship with another woman. This revelation surfaced when Hart became the target of alleged blackmail involving a compromising video.

Kevin Hart admitted to cheating when his wife was pregnant with their son. Addressing his infidelity during an appearance on the Red Table Talk show with Will Smith, the 44-year-old actor admitted:

“I stepped in some s**t, yeah. You’re never prepared for that side of it. Having a little girl in my life, it’s tough. You don’t realize the impact that your mistakes can truly have. When the kids get involved, it’s a different feeling, it’s a different emotion.”

Eniko Parrish, understandably, had an emotional reaction to the entire scandal. She openly discussed her struggles to keep a level head in the Netflix documentary, where she appeared alongside Hart:

“I wasn’t ready at the time to just give up on my family … It was a lot for me, but we’ve been through it, we’ve gone through it, we passed it and he’s a better man now because of it.”

Despite the turmoil in their relationship, Parrish chose to stay with Kevin Hart, and the couple later welcomed another child together.
