They welcomed their third child in November. 

Yet Kevin Hart and his wife Eniko Parrish proved they need a night off parenting duties on Monday night as they made their first public appearance as new parents at the Los Angeles Lakers in the Staples Centre in Los Angeles.

The 43-year-old funnyman, who also shares Heaven, 12, and Hendrix, 10 with his wife, kept things low-key in a varsity jacket while his stunning wife showed off her slender post-baby body in a white jumper and tight jeans with staggering boots.

The happy couple stayed close together after welcoming their new tot in November with Kevin keeping his hand on her knee throughout.

She looked extremely glamorous as she displayed the fabled new mother glow during the outing at the all-star basketball match.  

In a candid monologue on SNL, Kevin spoke about the new arrival as he said: 'I just had my third baby! I just had baby No. 3. Yes I did. I can admit to everybody that I wasn't, I wasn't excited about having a baby in the beginning...

'When we had the idea of having a baby, I wasn't thrilled. I didn't know if I wanted the baby. That's me being honest. Don't judge me. I'm being honest. I didn't know if I wanted the baby. The reason why is because I have got two babies already.'

Sitting alongside them was Jack Nicholson looked typically relaxed as he occupied his regular courtside seats, where he was joined by lookalike son Ray on Monday.

The legendary actor, 80, was in high spirits as they watched the Los Angeles Lakers take on rivals the Golden State Warriors – a game they ultimately lost 114-116. 

With an electronic cigarette clenched between his teeth, Lakers fan Jack looked on as his team played out the closely fought Western Conference face-off.

Sitting alongside his father, Ray, 25 – whose mother is actress Rebecca Broussard – looked equally at ease in a Lakers vest and matching baseball cap.

The game proved to be a special occasion for former Lakers player Kobe Bryant, who officially retired his squad number 8 and 24 jerseys in front of a star-studded crowd that included boxer Floyd Mayweather, actor David Arquette and Maroon 5 singer Adam Levine. 

While Jack took the Lakers' latest defeat well, he is not always so easy going when it comes to his team being beaten.

He famously walked out on them back in 2013, taking Adam Sandler with him, as the Lakers were defeated by the Oklahoma City Thunder.

They ended up losing 116-101 - at the time their sixth consecutive defeat.

Jack has enjoyed a more relaxed lifestyle since his last film in 2010, How Do You Know, and has taken up painting as a hobby.

However it was rumoured he was considering coming out of his unofficial retirement to star alongside Kristen Wiig in a Hollywood remake of the Oscar-nominated German comedy Toni Erdmann.

The original film saw a practical joking father attempt to reconnect with his daughter by creating an outrageous alter ego and then posing as her boss's life coach.
