Update: Hart has since tweeted the this morning's labor was actually a "false alarm" and that he and Parrish are "waiting patiently" for their son's arrival:

The original posting continues below:

Kevin Hart is about to become a dad once again.

According to TMZ, Hart's wife, Eniko Parrish, is currently in labor with the couple's first child together.

The news broke via Orlando's Power 95.3 FM, which was scheduled to air a live phone interview with Hart. However, as host DJ Nailz (no, not that Nails) tweeted this morning, Parrish went into labor prior to the segment:

Nailz also tweeted a video showing the moment the interview was canceled. Through a rep, Hart said he will redo his interview Thursday morning, and apologized for the cancellation:

As announced earlier this year, the pair will have a baby boy who they plan to name Kenzo, but not after Philadelphia's Kensington neighborhood. While Hart is a Philly native, he grew up at 13th and Erie, which is on the border of Franklinville and Hunting Park. The name, instead, is rooted in Japanese culture, and is sometimes given to the third child of a family.

While Kenzo will be Hart and Parrish's first child together, Hart has two children — Heaven, 12, and Hendrix, 9 — from his previous marriage to Torrei Hart.
