All the signs Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith weren’t together before shock revelation – Mirror Online
Jada Pinkett Smith, in an exclusive clip from her upcoming prime-time special with Hoda Kotb, has revealed that she and Will Smith have been separated since 2016, despite being legally married. This revelation comes nearly 20 years after their marriage in 1997. While the couple is no longer romantically together, they have chosen not to pursue a legal divorce. Pinkett Smith explains that they were both “exhausted with trying” by 2016 and were stuck in unrealistic expectations of each other. She emphasizes her commitment to working through their issues and not giving a reason for divorce.
Their relationship has been the subject of public attention, including Pinkett Smith’s “entanglement” with singer August Alsina in 2020, which they discussed in a Red Table Talk interview. Smith’s memoir in 2021 also touched on their marriage. Notably, the couple never officially reconciled after their separation in 2016.
Jada Pinkett Smith’s upcoming memoir, “Worthy,” which releases on October 17, is expected to shed more light on their relationship. It will detail her personal journey from suicidal depression to rediscovery and her relationship with rapper Tupac Shakur.
Their family includes two children, Jaden and Willow Smith, and Will Smith’s older son, Trey, from a previous marriage. Pinkett Smith’s interview with Hoda Kotb, set in her hometown, will provide further insights into this revelation, airing on October 17.
