Comedian, business mogul and movie star Kevin Hart is beloved by many, gifted with a humor that’s brought warmth into many households globally. Beyond many accolades, however, he’s a humble family man and celebrates nearly a decade of marriage with his partner Eniko Hart, equipped with two children and a world traveled. The couple met in 2009 and dated for nearly seven years before they wed in 2016, with Kevin popping the question on Eniko’s 30th birthday.
The Harts are no strangers to being the topic of conversation. Once scandal broke that Kevin was unfaithful to his partner, social media did not hold back in giving their due input. It was a rocky road for the two lovers, who have since overcome the public strife and now cherish their warm home and happy family. Here’s a deeper look into their road to happiness and what their relationship looks like today.
Who Is Eniko Hart?
Born August 18th, 1981 in Baltimore, Maryland, Eniko Hart was a model before she and Kevin came to be. She appeared on BET’s Rip The Runway, a fashion show that merged clothing with music. She currently serves as an ambassador for Kate Hudson’s Fabletics, though most of her time is now poured into her children.
Alongside stepmotherhood, Eniko is a mother to their son Kenzo Kash, born November 2017, and their daughter Kaori Mai, born September 2020. Reflecting on motherhood, she shared via Instagram, “A love like no other! Every ounce of pain was worth it ALL. Would I do it again? ABSOLUTELY!”
They’ve Made It Work
Eniko isn’t Kevin’s first shot at marriage. He and Torrei Hart were together from 2003 to 2011, sharing his firstborn children, Hendrix and Heaven. The marriage ultimately ended due to infidelity, though the two have spoken to co-parenting amicably.
This wasn’t the first time Kevin was unfaithful to a partner, as he and Eniko survived a similar fire. In 2017, he revealed on Instagram that an unidentified person was attempting to extort him for a sexually suggestive video. The comedian then publicly apologized to Eniko, who was pregnant with their first child at the time. Though many assumed she’d leave the relationship, Eniko chose to invest in their mending, putting in the work to heal as a blended family. “She held me accountable,” the actor said of his wife, adding that Eniko is “the strongest person in the world.”
Their Happily Ever After
Nowadays, they’re seemingly living their happily ever after, traveling the world as a blended family, from Greece to Rwanda, and publicly celebrating each other’s triumphs, anniversaries and birthdays. During Kevin’s 45th birthday trip to Mykonos, Eniko relflected on the youthful spirit of their relationship, sharing via Instagram “To my soulmate, lover, partner in life, best friend, words can’t describe how much fun we really have! The best part about it is was being in the MOMENT to witness you really ENJOY with the ones ya love! Happy to be by your side on your birthday..living, laughing + loving!”
While many had once prayed upon their downfall, Kevin and Eniko Hart prove that with enough investment and the intention of healing, any relationship can survive the deepest pits of broken trust.
