JADA IS AN OLD FOX: EXPOSING Jada Pinkett Smith’s LIES. Manipulating Her Marriage and CHEATING on Will Smith – FULL VIDEO BELOW

Will and Jada Pinkett Smith make up one of the most famous and long-lasting relationships in Hollywood, but the road hasn’t been a conventional one. They’ve been married for 25 years, and have both been remarkably open about the struggles and the triumphs of their strong union over the years.

While the couple has always found themselves making headlines because of their candidness and unconventional relationship, the most recent revelation seems to be the most shocking of them all. Their relationship was thrust into the spotlight again when Jada revealed to Today‘s Hoda Kotb that she and Will have been separated for seven years. “Yes, it was not a divorce on paper, but it was a divorce,” Jada says in an interview published on Oct. 11, ahead of the Oct. 17 release of her memoir, Worthy.

The 52-year-old actress disclosed that she and Will, 55, have been leading “completely separate lives” since 2016, even though they never officially divorced.

The separation began seven years ago, as Jada confirmed during the interview, making it a long-standing arrangement that they have successfully kept hidden from the public.

Hoda, who was clearly taken aback by the admission, asked Jada why they chose to maintain this unique arrangement, to which Jada responded, “I think just not being ready yet. Still trying to figure out between the two of us how to be in a partnership, and in regards to how do we present that to people, you know? And we hadn’t figured that out.”

When Hoda pressed for more details about the reasons behind the separation, Jada revealed, “I think by the time we got to 2016, we were just exhausted with trying. I think we were both kind of just still stuck in our fantasy of what we thought the other person should be.”

Despite the separation, Jada shared that she made a promise to herself and Will to never allow their marriage to result in a divorce. “I made a promise that there will never be a reason for us to get a divorce. We will work through whatever. And I just haven’t been able to break that promise,” she stated.

“But you still live separately,” asked Hoda. Jada confirmed, “We live separately.”

While the separation was kept under wraps, and the couple’s public statements have never hinted at any trouble in their marriage, recent years have shown the cracks in their united front.

Most recently, Chris Rock hit back at them — particularly Jada’s entanglement scandal with August Alsina — during his live Netflix special in which he addressed Smith shockingly slapping him at the 2022 Oscars.
