THERE ARE TONS OF MIXED REACTIONS ON THE LATEST INTERVIEW WITH KEVIN HART'S EX-WIFE, TORREI HART. SHE IS NOW SAYING CLEAR AS DAY THAT HIS CURRENT GIRLFRIEND OF FIVE YEARS, ENIKO PARRISH WAS IN FACT ONE OF THE WOMEN HE WAS INVOLVED WITH DURING THEIR SHAKY MARRIAGE.
(ENTERTAINMENT TONIGHT FOOTAGE WITH TORREI HART, ALONG WITH HER FELLOW CAST OF NEW REALITY SHOW, ATLANTA EXES.)
TORREI'S INTERVIEW EVENTUALLY MADE ITS WAY TO SOCIAL MEDIA WHERE HER AND KEVIN STATED THEIR VIEWS (INDIRECTLY MIGHT I ADD).
Torrei pretty much re-stated how she was there for Kevin in his earliest hours supporting his dream and most of this was brought on after the "rib" comment he made about present girlfriend, Eniko Parrish.
The thing that bothers me the most about this is how some people dismiss her interview as if she's beating a "dead horse", but never stop to think how they would respond if they were in a similar situation.
It's really easy to call someone else out about how they look publicly when they're not being "politically correct". If I had to ask myself if Torrei was trying to hurt Kevin's following/career by making these statements, I would have to say no. I believe that she felt validated to speak her side because Kevin has always talked about his past, his family, and his life in his work.
So, it's okay for Kevin to become a millionaire off of his life stories, but his ex-wife isn't allowed to say anything about how she feels?
I'm actually happy someone on this planet in some form of spotlight has made an attempt to keep it 100 and not save face because of how people abuse the term, "hater", "bitter", and etc. Her being a black woman already puts her in this category from judgments within our own race, but many of the people judging this woman are seriously NOT putting themselves in her shoes (if they can at all). It's one thing to be unattached - you're not in love with anyone, and then tell someone else how they should manage their hurt.
But when you BECOME that person and you're not only seeing that your family transferred to someone who didn't have to suffer in the gym while you were shooting, and THEN to have that new person be labeled as a "RIB" - I can understand her emotions and trying to find a way to heal from a constant reminder that it's over.
That's not to say she is a victim either. No one knows who was the problem behind closed doors when they were a couple. It could have been Torrei, or both or just Kevin. However, when Kevin made personal stories public access (comedy material or not), he opened the flood gates of this conversation and nobody seemed to have a problem with him bringing up his past for laughs even though one of the parties involved probably wasn't laughing at all.
Anyway...my rant wasn't supposed to be this long, but I truly believe as much money as Torrei is receiving from Kevin, it's not about that for her. I don't sense that from her at all. I sense a woman who loved a man she lost to the prototype of what is expected to be on his arm in Hollywood.
And it's easier to leave someone you're obligated to (baby mama) than to go to someone who you don't have a shared responsibility with and who will be everything you want them to be because you're a friggin millionaire. Plus, do you know how many chicks out here could care less about snatching somebody's man? Puh-leeeeease. It kills me how we make excuses for infidelity more than the support of a marriage in 2014. It's sad.
I know, I know, I'd have to be a guy (maybe a White or Asian one) for someone to truly take my points as valid (just kidding, kind of).
I encourage people to put themselves in the shoes of Torrei. I don't know too many people who would act so politically correct if the information she shared was true. And that's MALE or FEMALE.
Still love Kevin though, but it is what it is. I don't blame Torrei for keeping it 100. It's rough out here with all these judgmental folks.
