According to the Daily Mail, DeGeneres, 62, and Hart, 41, had lunch at Montecito’s Rosewood Miramar Beach, while Hart’s pregnant wife Eniko, spent time relaxing on the beach.
Hart and DeGeneres were reported to be engaged in a conversation described as “animated” and “passionate” as they sipped wine.

“I have known Ellen for years and I can honestly say that she’s one of the dopest people on the f**king planet,” Kevin wrote in an Instagram post.
“She has treated my family and my team with love and respect from day 1,” he added. The internet has become a crazy world of negativity… we are falling in love with peoples’ downfall.”
