Jada Pinkett’s disclosure in her new book has sent shockwaves through the industry, unveiling that she and Will Smith have been leading separate lives since 2016. The revelation, though stunning, might not be as surprising as it seems, considering hints and speculations that have been circulating in the public domain for some time.
Rewind to 2018, Kemi Filani had reported that Jada Pinkett and Will Smith had dropped a bombshell. They divulged that they no longer referred to themselves as a traditional married couple. Instead, they coined a new term – “life partners.” Their choice of words at the time sparked waves of speculation about the status of their marriage.
The plot thickened further in 2020 when the singer August Alsina stepped forward with a revelation that he had been in an “entanglement” with Jada Pinkett. This admission raised more questions than answers, implying a complicated relationship dynamic. Jada Pinkett, in response, refuted any claims of a romantic involvement, stating that no such relationship had occurred. However, her denial only served to intensify the spotlight on the Smiths’ relationship.
Fast forward to the present, and Jada’s new book has unveiled that their separation was a well-kept secret, spanning several years.
Reactions
romeof: One Romeof had this to say, “Will Smith, a very talented handsome actor, deserves a better lady than this ‘tirin gbeku’ (unfaithful) woman who was once entangled with her son’s friend, August Alsina… Well, she is Will Smith’s cross, the main issue in his life because she never loved him from inception.”
sir eltee: “One person she truly loved is 2pac. Will should move on already and save himself from more embarrassment.”
oluwakemi._o: “Even though they separated, he’s still protecting her at all cost. That slap can never be forgotten in history.”
teeh_lyfstyle: “This information was unprovoked! Now Jada, we didn’t need to know that.”
mealswithabi: “Poor Will… something just never seemed right. She’s not over 2pac, and he’s been enduring a lot for so long.”
mariomakezw: “May we not marry someone that will destroy your mental health and make your children go astray, and all you have to do is to please them because you want to be in their lives.”
