Unlike other celebrities, Kevin Hart’s divorce from his ex-wife Torrei did not cost him an arm and a leg, although he did incur some financial loss. According to TMZ, the “Ride Along” star was ordered to pay his ex-wife an initial amount of $175,000 and over $19,700 a month in child support as part of their divorce settlement. Torrei also got to keep her jewelry and a Cadillac Escalade, as listed in the court documents obtained by the news outlet. Granted, this could’ve made for a decent payday if not for the fact that Hart was worth a reported $9 million at the time of their separation. He is now worth an estimated $450 million, according to Marca. TMZ suggested that the measly sum was due to a prenuptial agreement signed prior to their wedding in 2003.
However, in an interview with TheYBF.com two years later, Torrei set the record straight about their divorce settlement and denied that there was a prenup in place before their marriage. She also clarified that the court’s ruling on assets was mostly based on her decision to bring an end to their courtroom dispute, telling the outlet (via By Her Own Rules), “There was no pre-nuptial agreement. Kevin and I have known each other ever since we were very young, and we genuinely loved each other. I knew Kevin when we both had very little. We built our love, our marriage, our family, and the Hart Empire from scratch together.”
