Black, Broxterman’s fiance, was determined not to have been driving under the influence at the time of the crash.
Hart, 40, is a popular comedian and actor, known for roles in “The Secret Life of Pets” and “Jumanji.”He was asked to host the 2019 Oscars, but pulled out when old homophobic tweets of his resurfaced.
Kevin Hart and his friends are lucky to be alive. Whether you’re rich, poor, famous, or middle class, our time on Earth is like a time-bomb which can go off without notice. Cherish the opportunity YOU (the person reading this) are blessed to be alive. #RealTalk pic.twitter.com/i4V9L57Bg8
