Who Is Kevin Hart's Wife? All About His Marriage to Eniko Hart
Kevin Hart with wife Eniko Hart
Kevin Hart and his wife, Eniko Hart, have been through plenty of ups and downs throughout their relationship, but they’re currently going strong—and he’s repeatedly described her as the “backbone” of his life.
After meeting in 2009, the couple quietly dated for two years before going public with their romance once Kevin finalized his divorce from first wife Torrei Hart. Kevin and Eniko tied the knot in 2016, two years after he proposed on her birthday, but their marriage was tested early on when Kevin was caught in a cheating scandal.
Kevin later said that weathering the storm wasn’t easy, but Eniko decided to stay with him—and held him “accountable” for his actions. “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,'" he recalled during a 2020 episode of the School of Greatness podcast. “It was her understanding that we don't let the outside world affect our inside, and I credit her for setting that tone.”

Who is Kevin Hart married to now?
Kevin Hart is married to Eniko Hart (née Parrish), who began her career as a model. In 2013, she appeared on the BET series Rip the Runway, which was hosted by Kelly Rowland and highlighted collaborations between the worlds of music and fashion. She’s since become an ambassador for Fabletics, the lifestyle brand co-owned by Kate Hudson. Kevin and Eniko have teamed up for multiple his-and-hers capsule collections with the brand.
“She’s the backbone of our household,” Kevin said during a January 2024 interview on Today With Hoda & Jenna. “She definitely has shaped and molded me in ways I never knew that I could possibly [go], just with growth in the world of adulting.”
How did Kevin Hart meet his wife?
Kevin Hart met his wife, Eniko, in 2009 at a nightclub in Washington, D.C. In the 2019 Netflix docuseries Don’t F**k This Up, Eniko said that their connection was instant. “One thing led to another, and it just happened,” she recalled of the evening, during which Kevin ran to the DJ booth to serenade her. “We couldn’t resist each other. It was nonstop.”
At the time, Kevin was still married to his first wife, Torrei, but he made it clear in the same series that there was no overlap between the two relationships. “The biggest misconception is that Eniko was the homewrecker,” he explained. “This woman came in and destroyed this man’s family. Reality is, I was done with my first marriage. We were done. In separate homes.”
When did Kevin Hart and Eniko Hart get married?
Kevin and Eniko tied the knot on Aug. 13, 2016, after getting engaged two years prior. Their wedding took place in California, and both of Kevin’s kids from his first marriage were in attendance at the ceremony. Kevin’s eldest son, Hendrix, served as his dad’s best man.
One year into the marriage, Kevin claimed in an Instagram video that an unnamed person was trying to extort him with a sexually suggestive video. Kevin publicly apologized to Eniko, who was then pregnant with the couple’s son Kenzo. Eniko said in Kevin’s Netflix series that she felt “publicly humiliated” by the scandal but ultimately decided to stick with her husband.
“I have to maintain a level head, I think that's the only thing that really got me through,” Eniko recalled. “I wasn't ready at the time to just give up on my family. I wanted Kenzo to be able to know his dad and grow up, so it was a lot. 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.”
Kevin, meanwhile, said in 2018 that the incident was “the most difficult test ever” for his and Eniko’s marriage. “I applaud my wife for just displaying a high level of strength that I can't even explain,” he told People. “I applaud her for being my backbone, my support system, and more importantly, taking my life to the next level.”

Kevin and Eniko Hart have been together for nearly 15 years and will celebrate their eighth wedding anniversary in August 2024. They welcomed son Kenzo in 2017, followed by daughter Kaori in 2020.
After Kevin underwent emergency surgery following a car accident in September 2019, he said that he’d developed a new appreciation for his wife and family. “It all boiled down to four walls,” he told Men’s Health in February 2020. “And in the space of those four walls was my wife and my brother, my kids and my friends, all on rotation. And I got a chance to think about what matters, and it’s not fame. It’s not money. It’s not jewelry, cars, or watches. What matters are relationships. You know, the people that were helping me get up and out of the bed.”
Who else has Kevin Hart been married to?
Prior to his relationship with Eniko, Kevin was married to Torrei Hart. The former couple wed in 2003 and filed for divorce in 2010 before finalizing their split one year later. The duo share custody of their two children, daughter Heaven and son Hendrix.
Kevin later said that he wasn’t ready for marriage when he and Torrei walked down the aisle. “I’m not ashamed to say it, guys,” he told Chelsea Handler during a 2016 interview. “I got married at the age of 22. I was still all over the place. I didn’t really understand the definition of marriage. I wasn’t ready for it, so I take responsibility. I can say I messed my first marriage up. I’m man enough to say that.”
