Kevin Hart is known for being short and the talented actor has also appeared in many movies, from Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle to Think Like A Man. He's also known for his marriage to Eniko Parrish. The couple got married in 2016, but since she wasn't a star before they tied the knot, no one knows very much about her background.
Kevin Hart isn't a fan of cancel culture, which makes sense as he and his wife have fallen on some difficult times and they haven't exactly had a fairy tale marriage. Let's take a look at who Eniko Parrish was before she met and married Kevin Hart, along with some of the things that she enjoys today.
Eniko's Interests
Eniko wasn't living her life in the spotlight prior to meeting Kevin Hart, but there are a few things that people know about her.
According to TV Over Mind, Eniko is a big fan of music. She loves listening to R&B, dancehall, and hip-hop. The website also says that she enjoys traveling.
Kevin Hart is into fitness and as it turns out, so is his wife. Eniko enjoys strength-training and cardio, so it sounds like she's definitely into living a healthy lifestyle. According to TV Over Mind, people who follow her on social media see her talking about exercising.
Eniko has also tried to be a model. Back in 2013, she was on a TV series called Rip the Runway which aired on BET. According to Nicki Swift, she went to L.A. with some big model dreams, and she is from Baltimore. She wasn't successful in the reality series and hasn't had professional modeling jobs.
Eniko is also a loving mother to two-year-old son Kenzo. She is currently pregnant with the couple's second child and according to People.com, she's going to have a daughter. When she shared the news on her Instagram feed, she wrote, "This Mother’s Day God has blessed us with another baby girl, this pregnancy felt the exact same I could’ve sworn we were having another boy. I literally screamed, laughed, and cried when we found out this time around."
The Love Story
According to Oprah Magazine, Eniko and Kevin announced their engagement in August of 2014. It was a big deal because it was also the day that Eniko turned 30 years old, so that was definitely a special celebration.
No one is sure when this couple began seeing each other as they were out in the world together in 2011. Kevin says they have known each other in 2009, so perhaps they kept their love story under wraps for a little while. It's worth noting that Kevin was married previously to Torrei Hart, and he didn't step out with Eniko until he was officially divorced.
The Scandal
Unfortunately, things haven't been perfect between Eniko and Kevin Hart. According to The Daily Mail, Kevin confessed that he had an affair in 2017. Things got even messier as Eniko was expecting their baby at the same time.
Kevin told The Daily Mail, "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. That's what you owe me. You owe me the get-better.' And she held me accountable."
Kevin Hart was in Las Vegas and he slept with Montia Sabbag, who is a model. According to The Daily Mail, she said that he engineered the entire situation and she sued him, asking for $60 million. The lawsuit didn't go anywhere as a judge in California said that it didn't go through the correct channels.
Eniko says someone sent her an Instagram DM to let her know her husband had been with someone else. According to Hollywood Life, Eniko said, "I don’t know who it was, sent me an edited video of Kevin and another woman. I was pregnant at the time. I was about seven to eight months pregnant, I was having breakfast, I opened my phone and immediately I just lost it."
While the couple has been through an affair, it looks like they are on solid ground once again. When Kevin Hart turned 41 in July 2020, his wife posted a sweet photo of the two of them on Instagram. She wrote in the caption, "I took a trip down memory lane this morning and gathered jus a few photos from over the years of us celebrating you! Woo! We def got some time in! LOL! You’ve gotten better, older, & wiser over the years. I loved u then and love more of the man that you’ve become."
