Kevin Hart Cheating Scandal Discussed On 'The View' (VIDEO)

On Wednesdayā€™s ā€œThe View,ā€ the co-hosts discussed the Kevin Hart cheating scandal. As Gossip Cop reported, Hart apologized to his wife, Eniko Parrish, after it was revealed he was being extorted over an alleged sex tape. Watch the video below.

While Hart didnā€™t specifically say he cheated, he told fans, ā€œI made a bad error in judgment and put my myself in an environment where only bad things can happen and they did.ā€ A photo circulating online shows the actor sitting inappropriately close with a woman later identified as Montia Sabbag. At issue is an alleged video of the pair, in which a man said to resemble Hart appears naked. Hartā€™s camp maintains people wanted hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of dollars, to keep the footage under wraps. They contacted the FBI, which is investigating whether Sabbag or someone else is behind the attempted extortion.

Now on the ABC talk show, which aired just before Sabbag was expected to hold a press conference, Whoopi Goldberg brought up the scandal, noting that Hart also cheated on his first wife, Torrei, who has openly complained about being used in his stand-up acts. ā€œBut donā€™t comedians use their life experiences in their acts?ā€ asked Sunny Hostin. ā€œI mean, she married a comedian. I donā€™t know if itā€™s off-limits to talk about your ex. And he also, I mean, Iā€™ve seen a lot of his stand-up. He also sort of just admitted to bad behavior [and] said he was a jerk in his first marriage.ā€

Sara Haines said, ā€œThe jokes are funny, but the one caveat would be is they do have kids and those are recorded. You see them again. As an adult not emotionally-attached to him, I found the jokes funny, but his kids watching, thatā€™s their mom.ā€ Joy Behar, a comedienne herself, shared, ā€œMy kids said do not talk about me in your act and I never do. I donā€™t have permission to do material about her life. Itā€™s not fair, really. And I think that thereā€™s a line that you cross sometimes when you talk about people you were married toā€¦ I donā€™t want to put my [ex-husband] down. Whatā€™s the point? To get a laugh? Thereā€™s other things to get laughs off.ā€

As for the cheating aspect, Hostin said of the timing of the end of Hartā€™s first marriage and his relationship with Parrish, ā€œThe math doesnā€™t quite add up. Then people are saying, well, thatā€™s what she gets. You lose them how you got them.ā€ And Behar, noting that Parrish and Torrei have feuded, said of Hartā€™s current wife, ā€œShe was saying the first wife should stop acting like a victim. Donā€™t spit up in the air, it comes back in your face. Now youā€™re the victim of the infidelity, so keep your [mouth] shut.ā€ Still, of the saying ā€œonce a cheater, always a cheater,ā€ Hostin admitted, ā€œI donā€™t know if I believe that.ā€

ā€œYou act different ways in different relationships,ā€ she argued, asking, ā€œDoes that mean heā€™s always going to be this cheater?ā€ Behar said thereā€™s two type of cheaters: The one who is unhappy in a relationship and the one who just ā€œcats around all the timeā€ regardless. ā€œThe second one is a serial cheater,ā€ she pointed out. And when Hostin said, ā€œI think you can cheat and not do it again,ā€ Behar agreed, ā€œJust once? Cā€™mon, people make mistakes. I bet this whole audience has at least fantasized about cheating.ā€

Interestingly, Goldberg didnā€™t give her opinion at all. Check out the video below.
