The 2016 Separation
Jada revealed that she and Will Smith have been living separately since 2016, but they have not officially divorced. According to Jada, the decision was made because they still love their family and want to grow as “life partners,” rather than just a legal couple. This has led to speculation that they may be in an open relationship or that one of them may be living with someone else.
Jada also said that, despite the couple having been apart for many years, they have no intention of divorcing in the near future. She asserted:
“We don’t want to get divorced because we still love our family and we still love each other.”
The Oscars Fight and Its Impact
In the interview, Jada addressed the controversial incident at the 2022 Oscars, when Will Smith slapped Chris Rock for a joke involving Jada. It’s worth noting that Jada wasn’t at the event at the time and initially thought the incident was an act. It wasn’t until Will returned to his seat that she realized the seriousness of the act.
“I thought it was an act until Will came back.”
The incident sparked discussions about their true relationship and how they handled the public.
“Entanglement” and Relationship with August Alsina
Another topic that has gained attention is Jada’s relationship with singer August Alsina, which was revealed on the show Red Table Talk in 2020. At the time, Jada admitted to having what she called an “entanglement” with Alsina while she and Will were apart. Jada initially denied that Will approved of the relationship, but later admitted that she had real feelings for Alsina.
Jada shared that the relationship helped her understand that happiness cannot be found in others, but must come from within.
Diddy Statement
What was even more surprising was that in a recent conversation, Jada mentioned that Will had attended a “freak off” with Diddy – a controversial type of party rumored to involve wild behavior. The news shocked fans, with many expressing shock and surprise on social media.
Marriage and the Initial Pressure
Looking back, Jada also revealed that she never wanted to marry Will in the first place. She only agreed because she was pregnant with her son Jaden at the time and her mother, Adrienne Banfield-Norris, pressured her to get married. Jada shared:
“I cried all night because I didn’t want to get married, but my mom pushed me.”
They eventually tied the knot in 1997 at the Cloisters Castle near Baltimore. Although they both agree that the wedding did not go as planned, they still believe that getting married was the right decision at the time.
Conclusion
Will and Jada Pinkett Smith’s relationship has been filled with ups and downs and has been the subject of much controversy. Jada’s latest statements show that the couple is not bound by traditional marriage norms but rather by mutual understanding and healing. By opening up about their relationships and personal lives, the two continue to be the center of attention and controversy in the media.
Whatever their future holds, Will and Jada’s story has opened up many conversations about love, loyalty, and modern marriage – something that is not simply a marriage in name, but a choice to live for each other in their own way.
