Newly surfaced details have shed light on how Eniko Hart discovered her husband, Kevin Hart’s infidelity through a private Instagram message. At the time, Eniko was pregnant when she received a link to a Dropbox file that contained footage of Hart’s affair, revealing another layer to the blackmail plot against the comedian.
The scandal traces back to 2017 when Hart, then 38, was filmed in a Las Vegas hotel room with model Montia Sabbag. The footage, reportedly taken after a night of partying and drug use, became central to an extortion scheme that demanded $15 million for silence.
