‘These Are Not 3 Kevin Harts??’: A Resurfaced Photo of Kevin Hart with Family Has Fans Distracted By Their Resemblance

Kevin Hart fans are seeing triple after a photo of the comedian with his mother and brother began making rounds on the internet this week. 

On May 3, a throwback image of the Philadelphia native standing next to his older brother, Robert, and behind his late mother, Nancy, was shared by a Twitter user, @sheyman_sznn.

It is unclear what year the photo was taken, though Hart appeared to be relatively young.

In the picture, the “Jumanji” actor is wearing a slight smile while Nancy is beaming broadly. As for Robert, he maintained a straight face. Though they all had different facial features, the Twitter post focused on how uncanny their resemblance was.

“Kevin hart could play his entire family if he did a movie about his life,” the stan account wrote. 

It wasn’t long before the resurfaced photo received massive notice from fans online, who were taken aback by how much they all looked alike. 

“Sorry who’s Kevin Hart here again??”

Where’s Kevin Hart in the pic though?”

“the resemblance is crazy ngl”

These are not 3 Kevin harts??”

Two years ago, fans swarmed the 43-year-old’s comment section after he shouted out Robert in a birthday post. The duo can be seen wearing plaid outfits as Hart wrapped his arm around his brother. While his appreciation message was touching, the only thing fans noticed was how much the two men favored each other. 

Hart and Robert seem to have a pretty close relationship, as did Hart and his mother. In 2007, Nancy passed away from ovarian cancer just as her son started to make a name for himself in comedy. 

Although it’s been over 15 years since her passing, Hart never misses a chance to revel in stories about his mother. 

Back in November, the “Fatherhood” actor starred in an episode of the “Million Dollaz Worth of Game” podcast, where he shared a story about him and his mom getting robbed at gunpoint while leaving a laundromat. 

According to Hart, a man came over to him and his mother, demanding Nancy hand over her fanny pack. “My mom was like, ‘No,’” Hart said. 

After a brief back-and-forth, the robber snatched his mother’s fanny pack and threw it back at her after realizing there was nothing in it. 

In addition to losing his mother, Hart lost his father, Henry Witherspoon, when he passed away last October. Though they had a rocky relationship in the past, the two men were able to mend their bond before the older man transitioned.

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
