The actor and comedian announced the passing of his father, saying his dad is 'gone but never forgotten.'
"My kids actually think I'm the coolest dad on the planet…. But I know why I am the way that I am," he said at the time."See, my dad has a lot to do with that. The mistakes that my dad made—the decisions to do drugs, be in and out of jail, in and out of our lives—I saw firsthand what not being present did. And because of that I now know what being present means. I know what that can do. I know the effect that it will have on your child coming up.
However, Hart noted that his dad later became sober and that they were able to eventually reconcile and develop a tight bond. "Now, I was strong enough to deal with it coming up 'cause I have a different attitude. I'm a positive guy. I choose to go positive instead of negative a lot. And because of that, my relationship with my dad is amazing now," he continued.
"And my dad understands how I feel and how I look at things. And my dad is focusing on being the best grandparent that he possibly can."
