Kevin Hart Faces Backlash Again After Saying Diaper Duty Is For Mothers
Dec. 13 2017, Updated 2:28 p.m. ET
Kevin Hart spent his Wednesday morning going on a Twittter rant, after being criticized over his daddy duties, when he said in a recent interview that he does not change newborn son Kenzo's diaper. He said instead that it's a job for is wife, Eniko Parrish, which many fans did not find amusing.
“Oh, no. Not on my new baby. Not on Kenzo — on my older babies I did and I had tough times doing it,” he said when asked about changing his diapers.
“With a newborn it’s very tough, they’re fragile, they need a mother’s touch; that’s not a father’s time, so I said, ‘Don’t tag me in ’til me and the baby are on terms of ‘Stop!’ and he can listen to that; I don’t want to deal with that new, new,’ ” he said.
In a since-deleted tweet, user @johnnymota23 said real men take care of all that comes with being a new father, to which Kevin replied, "Real men also can tell when people are joking or being sarcastic. People are truly ignorant. Here is some reality for you... Kevin Hart is a “Comedian”....All I can do is laugh at the stuff that people take off and run with."

"Your right man...I didn’t know joking about changing diapers was a world issue. Before you say..'It’s ok Kevin, just be careful next time' you should know that this is also Sarcasm. SMDH."
Considering the year Kevin has had, the last thing he needs is more backlash, and while Johnny ended up apologizing, some Twitter users still feel Kevin was being quite serious.
As reported, Kevin was criticized earlier this year after it was revealed he cheated on Eniko while she was pregnant with Kenzo! He then became the target of extortion after an unknown person demanded money for keeping a video of the sexual encounter under wraps.
Do you think Kevin should have made that remark at all? Let us know in the comments section.
