Kevin Hart: Wife 'held me accountable' for cheating scandal

Actor and comedian Kevin Hart opened up about how he struggled with his relationship with wife Eniko Parrish after the cheating scandal surfaced in 2017. He stated that Eniko held him accountable for all the misunderstandings.

Mumbai: American comedian Kevin Hart is revealing new details about how his relationship with wife Eniko Parrish fared after his cheating scandal.

He said: "She came to an amazing conclusion of, 'I like the fact that we have a family, that we have a household, and I like the fact that we now got a job to do to get better'."

The Jumanji: The Next Level actor continued: "That's what you owe me. You owe me the get-better.' And she held me accountable. It wasn't a walk in the park, but it was her understanding that we don't let the outside world affect our inside and I credit her for setting that tone."

Hart star gushed over her, calling her "the strongest person in the world."

Hart and Parrish are already parents to 2-year-old son Kenzo. Hart also shares two children with ex-wife Torrei Hart, 15-year-old daughter Heaven Hart and son 12-year-old son Hendrix Hart.

In 2017, Hart cheated on Parrish with model Montia Sabbag while on a trip to Las Vegas. The sexual encounter was caught on video, which was later released in an alleged attempt to extort the comedian.

Sabbag publicly maintained she didn't release the tape and agreed Hart was as much a victim as she was. She changed her tune in September 2019 when she sued Hart for USD 60 million, claiming that Hart and his friend JT Jackson set her up and hid a camera during their rendezvous.

Later, the lawsuit was dismissed.
