This is the moment most daddies fear: that moment when their young daughter discovers a boy. Actor Kevin Hart’s daughter Heaven Hart is already crushing on boys, and she’s only 12.
E! News’ Maria Menounos caught up with the ‘Ride Along’ star at the Rally Health Fest in San Francisco, where Hart opened up about his fear.
Hart acknowledged that it’s unrealistic to forbid his daughter from even looking at boys. But he’s terrified nonetheless.
“It’s scary stuff. It’s about to get tough,” said Hart. “She’s already tough. She’s having a soccer-themed party. ‘OK honey.’ The word ‘no’ does not exist, no matter how tired you are.”
Hart told Menounos that his little girl is already starting to talk about boys. “She actually talks to me, which makes me mad but I can’t let her know that because she’s comfortable with telling me,” Hart said. “‘I think I like this guy, this boy. He’s nice. He’s cool. I just want you to know because I just want to tell you stuff,'” Hart recalled his daughter telling him.
“I’m going to find [the boy],” joked the protective father.
On the other hand, he said he fears his daughter is a little too fast for her age.
“This is the first time I’m dealing with this, so it’s not like I have a ton of experience,” Hart told Menounos. “My mom had two boys. It was me and my brothers, so this is me dealing with a girl at a different level. I mean this is my heart. I don’t want to prohibit things, but she is a child, so you make sure she understands the parameters that she can and can’t do.”
He continued, “We’re living in different times, so the way you could prohibit things back in the day, it’s different now. The Internet gives kids access to anything and everything.
“Communication is extremely important, and that’s what my daughter and I have,” he said. “I love that. I laugh a lot at stuff at first, but then I give my dad speech. You can’t let them see you laugh.”
At 13 I was doing the dew.
I hit the girl next door.
i had a girlfriend at 11. we broke up and she sent me a note that said she’d suck my d if i go back out with her…now how a 11 yo in the 90’s know about that is beyond me.
ohhh weee……teenage years….lol My 12 yr old niece is built every bit like a women in her 20’s…SCARY!!
If Kevin Hart, was your average, no money having, he would still be married to, whats her name, Torrei? Seriously, who really would be checking for his little ugly arse. He got the money, so he got the wife. It’s a shame to know that’s the only reason, she even gave him, the time of day LOL…He knows it, she knows it, Torrei knows it, and the world knows it. I would like to give a shout out to all the ugly black men in the industry, no need to name, you know who you are (LOL) with pretty wives because of your money and prestige. Outside of that money NOBODY would be checking for y’all. Real Talk!!! My name is MsChocCookie, and I approve this message!!!!!
I agree. And the same to men of other races as well.
Books, tv, etc… And let’s not forget child sexual abuse.
i thought it was weird and turned her down lmaooo…then comes the end of the school year, we were having field day. her thot ass was on the school bus with her home girl sucking dudes off.
That’s too bad. They only knew/did what they were taught.
very cray, but she turned out ok. so there’s that lol
Kevin Hart seems like a good dad.. he still puts his kids first even tho him and their mother split..and that’s whats most important! Little girls need their dads jus as much as little boys do.. they need fathers to tell them their beautiful, that way when a boy tells her the same, it doesn’t phase her because daddy has told her that all her life! Fathers like that make queens!
me too! BUT moved in slience..I think my mother would kill me dead TODAY if she knew how old I actually was when I started!
Some men in general do this. Get money, and then go and get the trophy wife. I personally would feel ashamed if I knew someone was only with me for the material things (Steve Harvey, Kevin Hart). I guess they need trophy wives on their arms to feel whole — such low esteemed people.
I respect men like Denzel Washington. He could probably have any exotic looking chick, but he stayed with his wife and kept his family together. It’s a shame Kevin didn’t keep his family together. And Torrei is beautiful in my opinion.
I hope she starts dating a little white or asian boy.
He’s on the right track as long as communication remains open and she sees how he respects her mother and step mom.
Girls are such a disappointment. Even when they are raised with “Good Fathers” they still turn out being Whores.. If I every had a girl, I’m giving her up for adoption lmao
Right.. And limiting her exposure to social media wouldn’t hurt.
Where is Sandra? This post is 3 hrs old. New post please Sandy!
I hope he’s just as involved and concerned when his son is 12.
You’re an idiot! Seriously, cannot believe an adult would make such an ignorant statement. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/88c66d4f72cb78dd108685a014adb5358d171a53451520be0baf882ea7fb5dd1.gif
Ignorant, weak comment. Too much to teach you, so I’ll just pray for you. Let’s just hope you don’t have a wife or daughter until your views change
Why
Whoa. TALK to her. OFTEN It’s a shame that some men do NOT care smh. Especially some of these male teachers and coaches
your sooo right….a lot of her friends…smh….are coming out gay these days…I don’t have a problem with it(I guess) but at her age when I was 12…you never heard of kids their age being gay….trust me…I stay in her ear…..about boys….how advanced her body is…she dances, so that makes her body even MORE toned…..
” he still puts his kids first even tho him and their mother split..”
This is true and SHOULD be automatic. People forget that their split doesn’t have to “split” the children. Be amicable enough to deal with each other respectfully. Leave the vindictive stuff out of it.
The one good thing is that she feels comfortable with talking to her father and for his input. Most girls don’t do that so that lets me know he is a father who has so much input in his daughters life. She will be alright because he will definitely make sure she stay on the right path
You need attention, huntie????
Yep and i have never heard either of them say a bad word about each other
Kudos to him for understanding how important that open line of communication is with her. When you jump all over your kids when they open up to you that just causes them to shut their parents out. He’s smart for realizing he shouldn’t do that.
I just chaperoned 15 girls ages 9 and 10 and all they talked about was boys and gossip. I was disgusted but they are the sweetest brightest bunch of little black girls in the planet. There was 2 girls though, that knew too much. It’s human nature to lust for sex during puberty, hormones rage. Those 2 girls are watching shows unsupervised like the Quad, RHOA and Love and Hip Hop, so they know how to toot their bodies for pictures, know how babies are made and about drugs and drinking. They all voiced their opinions about race and politics and their disdain for President Trump. These were 3rd and 4th graders, whew.
Truth hurts.
But it is rumored that Denzel is a major ho so i don’t know if he’s such a good example.
Lmao. I know I’ve heard those rumors. But at least he kept his family together and didn’t leave his wife and kept the sidelines on the sideline where they belong. Look, most of these women who marry wealthy, powerful men know the deal. The reality is that most, if not all, cheat.
