Celebs Send Love to Kevin Hart After Car Accident

“I have nothing but love for Jared and wish him and Rebecca a speedy recovery,” Hart, 40, shared in a new statement to E! News on Thursday, October 10.

The comedian was involved in the car crash near his Los Angeles home on September 1. According to the police report obtained by Us Weekly, producer Jared Black was driving Hart’s 1970 Plymouth Barracuda when the car swerved off Mulholland Highway, rolled over and went into a ditch in Malibu. Black’s fiancée, Rebecca Broxterman, who trains the Night School star’s wife, Eniko Hart, was also in the vehicle at the time.

Kevin underwent back surgery the following day Eniko confirmed that her husband was on the mend while speaking to TMZ outside of the hospital.

“He’s great. He’s going to be just fine,” Eniko (née Parrish) said. “He’s good. Everybody’s good, thank God. … He’s fine. He’s awake.”

“Kevin has a long way to go in his recovery,” a source told Us about his status on Thursday. “He had to be a part of the promotional shoot for Jumanji and he wasn’t going to miss it. He was cleared to work for short periods of time. He has been at the studio for a few hours a day doing very small things. He will be working again this week and getting done what he needs to do.”

Celebrity Health Scares

Although Hart, 40, has started getting back into the swing of things in his professional career, he is primarily focused on his road to recovery.

“He is receiving physical therapy daily,” the source tells Us. “He is working very hard to rebuild his strength and come back strong. He can walk on his own but is nowhere near full recovery or ready to do action scenes. He is taking it very slowly.”
