Kevin Hart is back on the mend!
The Jumanji: The Next Level actor just made his first appearance on The Ellen Show since his car accident three months ago.
Here, he shares how the experience has changed his life forever.
His friend Jared Black had been driving Hart's vintage Plymouth Barracuda in the early hours of the morning when Black lost control of the vehicle.
While both Hart and Black suffered major back injuries, no one, including the third passenger, faced life-threatening injuries.
Hart had loved that car so much, he even nicknamed it “Menace."
The Jumanji: The Next Level actor recently stopped by The Ellen Show to chat with Ellen DeGeneres.
“Workouts are not full, I’m not lifting crazy weights, but I’m back to weighted workouts, agility, mobility, core workouts. I’m a little determined [expletive].”
“I couldn’t wipe my [expletive]," he shared.
“My biggest triumph was when I put my socks on, when I put my socks on it was the biggest thing in the world.”
"That’s when you see what really matters, who really matters. Life kind of hits you in a completely different way," he added.
"And you go 'wow,' Hart said about their support, "this is love."
Hart shared that the media mogul send him a huge floral arrangement after his accident.
It made him hilariously realize that "no one loves him like Oprah."
“I’ve got a completely different look on life now, a much better one," he shared.
"It’s about those individuals and who you really mean the most to and who means the most to you.”
“But we’re not rebuilding to get back to the old you, we’re rebuilding to be better and become a new you. It’s a thing with me and my mindset that I embrace and I think from the days in the hospital when I realized I couldn’t do for myself.”
"True story," he shared.
"The first thing was me saying [to my wife], ‘Yo, I don’t like the fact, honey, that you gotta come in and you gotta get me together. My first goal is to get you out of this position.’ And I learned how to stretch and I started to get a little looser and looser. I started showering by myself, I started dressing by myself.”
“I’ve never been home for more than eight to ten days. Ever. Never,” he shared. “I’ve never been home for a consecutive period of ten days straight.”
“Being home for that amount of time being happy,” he said. “I was sat down. I feel like God sat me down.”
We're wishing him the best as he fully recovers!
