Is Kevin Hart Making A Joke Out Of His Marriage, Cheating Scandal?
Although Kevin Hart has had a rough couple of weeks and come under fire for cheating on his pregnant wife Eniko Parrish, it looks like the star is still raking in plenty of money in the midst of all of the controversy. However, Montia Sabbag, the woman who the comedian reportedly cheated with, hasn’t experienced the same success following the scandal.
In September, Hart came forward and confessed to cheating on his wife, after an individual tried to extort him for millions of dollars over a sexually suggestive video of himself and Sabbag. However, it now looks like the star plans to go on a comedy tour which will make light of the situation.
The “Ride Along” star released a new promo for his upcoming tour, “Irresponsible,” where he jokes about the Las Vegas cheating scandal which involved Sabbag. Along with the video, Hart announced that tickets will be going on sale soon and he plans to start out performing at shows stateside, before eventually embarking on an international leg of the tour.
While the comedian seems to be cashing in on his indiscretion, the woman in the video is going through a hard time. Sabbag has reportedly received several death threats since news of the scandal has surfaced, according to TMZ.
Sabbag’s lawyer, Lisa Bloom, revealed that her client has also been slut-shamed and hacked on social media because of the scandal. The attorney considers Hart’s tour and the jokes about the scandal “very distasteful.”
“This stuff takes a toll mentally and physically, and now with this tour, it’s like this whole thing was a joke,” she said in a statement.
Hart and Sabbag were featured in a 4 minute and 47 second “sexually provocative” video, in which the two are seen lying on the couch, with the actor resting his hand on her thigh. Two people, who look to be Hart and Sabbag, are later seen in the bedroom, undressed and walking around.
Following the extortion, Hart got authorities involved to track down the person who was attempting to shake him down for cash. Since then, Bloom has insisted that Sabbag continues to be cooperative with the police.
Meanwhile, Hart and his wife have been working on getting past the scandal, but sources close to the model revealed that she is doing her best to stay strong during this difficult time. An insider told People that Parrish “is fully cooperating with the law enforcement investigation” that concerns her husband’s extortion scandal.
Despite his infidelity during their marriage, Parrish plans on staying by his side and the two are reportedly “dealing with this together.” Even though she has been putting on a brave face for the cameras, the pregnant star is allegedly struggling to get past the incident.
“She has been hounded by the press and is very upset. She is trying to stay healthy and enjoy her pregnancy, but the latest drama is too much,” a source revealed.
Hart has continuously apologized to his wife, kids and loved ones about his behavior and has said he isn’t phased by the harsh criticism of others. Despite his indiscretions, it is clear the star has every intention of continuing his career as a successful comedian.
