Actor and comedian Kevin Hart is a proud father right now, following the graduation of his old son, Hendrix.
Hart has four children — two from his first marriage to Torrei Skipper, and two with his current wife, Eniko Parrish. Hendrix was the second-born child with Skipper in 2007, following the birth of daughter Heaven in 2005.
Hendrix, 18, graduated from Sierra Canyon School in Chatsworth, California, where he was a standout track-and-field star. Following his graduation, he has officially signed to run track for the University of Tennessee in Knoxville.
His famous father took to social media to post about his pride at seeing him graduate.
Kevin Hart Is ‘So Proud’ of Son Hendrix
A proud Kevin Hart posted on his Instagram account to his 172 million followers about his son Hendrix’s graduation.
Hart captioned the post, “So proud of this Kid…. Love you more than words can ever express!!!!!!! Congrats Doo ….. Watch the video until the end to see how to properly embarrass ur kid on graduation day 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 #Harts.”
The post comprised a photograph and a video.
In the photograph, Hart stands proudly next to Hendrix, who towers above him in his graduation gown.
In the video, which Hart refers to in the post’s caption, the comedian runs up to his son as he departs the graduation stage and fires golden ticker tape at him.
The comments section on the post is full of congratulatory words from Hart’s followers (several of whom noted the height difference between father and son).
One follower wrote, “Boy got his momma’s height… congratulations!”
Another Instagram user said, “congratulations he is grown I can’t 🥹.”
Someone else commented, “Greatest feeling in the 🌍 congratulations.”
Finally, a follower noted, “I know he glad the height part of his dad’s gene skipped him. #congratulations 🎉🎊🍾.”
Hendrix’s Mother Was Also Present at His Graduation
Although she wasn’t featured in his post, Kevin Hart’s ex-wife and Hendrix’s mom, Torrei Skipper, was also present at the youngster’s graduation. She posted on her Instagram account expressing her pride to her 732,000 followers.
She captioned her post, “Proud is an understatement. You did it kid!!!! @hennyshteez A sweet ending to a new beginning. Congratulations son. We love you.”
Like her ex-husband’s post, her post also featured one photograph and one video.
The photograph shows Skipper, Kevin Hart, Hendrix, and the former couple’s daughter, Heaven.
The video shows Hendrix waiting in line to graduate and the moment his father fired ticker tape at him (but from a slightly different angle).

One follower wrote, “Congratulations Hendrix! Great job mom and dad! (How he get taller than boffayall? 😂)”
Another person commented, “Congratulations Hendrix, Mama and family!!”
Someone else noted, “Yall made some beautiful kids!!! Snapped 😍😍🔥🔥🥰🥰.”
