Kevin Hart opens up about how his cheating affected his 16-year-old daughter, Heaven
In more news about tumultuous father-child relationships, Briefly News previously reported that renowned comedian Kevin Hart has shared the heartbreak his daughter felt after his infidelity became a worldwide topic.
In a candid chat with actor Will Smith in a special Father's Day Red Table Talk, the two went deep on their relationships, character and family.
Speaking about his 2017 cheating scandal, Hart said it is difficult to bother him as a person but when it came to his children, he realised his daughter, 16-year-old Heaven, touched an emotional cord.
The actor said it was difficult to apologise to her and she was very tough on him.
"Getting my daughter to understand that I'm sorry, I made a mistake, that was real... Until this day! My daughter is tough on me. [She] don't play with her father," he said.
The thespians also touched on how their fame has affected their households as they noted children get more bashing for what they do, more than them. Kevin also said the biggest lesson he has learnt with fame is to listen, which would have helped him understand and handle things differently.
