Quick answer: No, Kevin Hart did not cheat with Khloe Kardashian. The 2017 photos behind the “Kevin Hart caught cheating again” headline show him glancing at her on the way into a Los Angeles fitness show shoot. That is the entire story.
In August 2017, Kevin Hart was a married man with a scandal already chewing at his heel. His ex-wife Torrei had just accused him of infidelity, his current spouse Eniko Parrish was eight months pregnant, and every paparazzi frame was being read like scripture. Then came the photos.
Kevin Hart Caught Cheating Again, With Khloe Kardashian (Photos): What Really Happened
On Wednesday, August 23, 2017, the comedian and the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star were photographed outside a YMCA in Los Angeles, arriving for a fitness show shoot.
The Photos That Started the “Cheating Again” Rumors
The frames show the pint-sized fitness fanatic, then 38, trailing Khloe Kardashian, then 33, a fellow fitness fanatic dressed for the fitness show in Nike leggings and trainers. In one image his eyes drop. In the next he catches himself and looks away. That’s it.
The Daily Mail ran it as “Eyes front Kevin!” Within hours, it became “caught cheating again.”
What Kevin Hart Was Really Filming in Los Angeles
The project was a fitness show, and it was never a secret. Seven months later it aired as episode 4 of Kevin Hart: What the Fit, titled “Goat Yoga With Khloé Kardashian,” released March 29, 2018 on the Laugh Out Loud Network. The man “caught cheating again” was simply at work on a fitness show.
| What the photos showed | What the record shows |
|---|---|
| A partially zipped leather jacket | A fitness show shoot in progress |
| Nike leggings and trainers | Two colleagues walking to set |
| One sideways glance | A fitness show that aired months later |
| A “cheating again” headline | Zero evidence of an affair |
The Outfit Details Everyone Copy-Pasted
- Khloe Kardashian: black Nike leggings (Nike Power), a cropped leather jacket, trainers, and a pink Hermès Birkin “which cost more than some cars.”
- Kevin Hart: head-to-toe Nike — grey tee, black shorts, sneakers, the uniform of a fitness fanatic.
Did Kevin Hart Actually Cheat With Khloe Kardashian? The Facts
No. There is no report, lawsuit, statement or source claiming Kevin Hart and Khloe Kardashian had a relationship. The “cheating again” tag came from timing, not evidence. The phrase “Kevin Hart caught cheating again” has outlived every correction that followed. Hart laughed the rumors off on his Instagram Story:
“Gonna be honest with you people, I’m at a point where I can’t even be shocked anymore. All I do is laugh, man.”
Inside the Kevin Hart Confessions
What made the headline believable: Kevin Hart really was in the middle of a cheating scandal. He just wasn’t in it with Khloe Kardashian.
His Apology to His Current Spouse, Eniko Parrish
On September 16, 2017, three weeks after the YMCA photos, Hart posted a public apology video. His current spouse was eight months pregnant with their son Kenzo.
“Sending so many apologies to my wife & kids. I gotta do better and I will. I’m not perfect and have never claimed to be… I love you all.”
He spoke out because someone was allegedly extorting him over a tape filmed in a Las Vegas hotel room that August. Model Montia Sabbag was the woman in it.
Eniko Parrish’s Response: “You Owe Me the Get-Better”
Parrish, his current spouse, explained on The School of Greatness why she stayed: she liked their family and their household, “and I like the fact that we now got a job to do to get better.”
“That’s what you owe me. You owe me the get-better.”
Hart’s summary: “She held me accountable. It wasn’t a walk in the park.”

| Date | What happened |
|---|---|
| July 2017 | Hart calls cheating reports “completely false” |
| Aug 23, 2017 | The Khloe Kardashian YMCA photos are published |
| Sept 2017 | His public apology; the extortion case follows |

That 2026 roast is why the story keeps resurfacing: every time Kevin Hart trends, the photos get pulled out of the archive.
The Ex-Wife Torrei Accusation and the “Cheating Again” Headline
Ex-wife Torrei Hart married Kevin Hart in 2003, divorced him in 2011, and shares two children with him, Hendrix and Heaven. In August 2017 she publicly accused him of cheating during their marriage with the woman who became his current spouse. That accusation from his ex-wife Torrei is where “again” came from — a claim, not a court finding.
Kevin Hart and Khloe Kardashian: Did They Ever Date?
Never. They were colleagues in the same orbit:
- August 2016: Khloe Kardashian attends Hart’s wedding to Eniko Parrish with Trey Songz as her date.
- October 2016: The two co-host The Ellen DeGeneres Show together.
- August 2017: The fitness show shoot in Los Angeles.
- 2019 to 2026: No romantic link in any credible outlet.
What the Fit, Goat Yoga and the Fitness Show That Ended the Rumor
Kevin Hart: What the Fit launched in March 2018 on the Laugh Out Loud Network’s YouTube channel. Each episode threw Hart into a bizarre workout with a celebrity friend.
The Khloe Kardashian episode involved about twenty goats, a car ride, and a stop at a Trader Joe’s parking lot to recruit a stranger. The fitness fanatic took the fitness show seriously:
“It was an hour I could zone everyone out… I’m just allowed to be me.”
Hart did not:
“There’s no respect for anybody’s property or nothing with these goats.”
It is the least romantic footage ever shot. That is the point.

The Khlo-Fit Web Series, Workout Secrets and Why Outfits Make Headlines
When the photos broke, reporters noted that Khloe Kardashian had her Khlo-Fit web series, where she shares workout secrets with fans. Her own words on training: “For me, it was something that I was able to control.” In that sense, the leather jacket, the Nike leggings and the trainers were doing double duty — outfit and advertisement for the very workout secrets her Khlo-Fit web series sells.
