Will and Jada pinket Smith were long romanticized in Hollywood as the perfect couple they proved that it's possible for two people to be incredibly successful aess celebrities and raise a stable family who all love each other we now know that was all a lie the Smith family was an image carefully crafted to look like the perfect family while it was an utter mess on the inside and over the past few years all of their deepest Secrets have been revealed to the entire world once you hear the full story your opinions of Will and Jada might change because we are going to dive deep and look at every detail that built up to one of the most catastrophic confusing and preventable marriages of all time starting with the fact that Jada didn't want to be with Will in the first place in 1994 Will Smith was married to his now ex-wife Sheree Zampino they also had a 2-year-old son named Trey but will was spending a lot of time with actress Jada pinkit despite having a wife and baby at home Jada auditioned for a role in season 5 of The Fresh Prince of belir which was arguably the most influential and popular 90 sitcom in history The New York Times said the Fresh Prince had put rap into the mainstream every week nearly 20 million viewers tuned in to see Smith and the Banks family with a quarter of the National Television audience watching at its peak Jada auditioned to be Will's girlfriend Lisa and came close to booking the role but didn't because producers thought Jada looked too short when sharing the screen with will the role ultimately went to Nea long who is just 2 in taller than Jada will tried to approach Jada to console her she Shrugged him off but he says it was love at first sight the two say will did not have an affair but will was head over heels for another woman that wasn't his wife we sat down at the baked potato and talked there was a really unique beautiful power we had that moment and we connected but I was married funny enough this wasn't the first time will fell in love with someone that wasn't his wife he admits in his Memoir that he fell in love with his co-star stalker Channing while filming 1993's 6 degrees of separation Will's Unfaithful Tendencies are not that surprising considering he was a 6'2 25-year-old movie star television star and rap star but it was an early sign that maybe marriage wasn't for him will claims he never would have divorced his wife Sheree if she didn't initiate it first we were at the Palm and I remember I had to get up from dinner when I had a realization that I wasn't with the person I was supposed to be with Will rushed to the bathroom in the palm and broke down in tears his marriage eventually reached a Breaking Point and Sheree filed for divorce on Valentine's Day in 1995 Shere ref filed for a divorce rightfully she called herself my placeholder wife she said that she just had to be there to hold the position of wife in Will Smith's perfect life the most important takeaway from this is Will's willingness to remain in a marriage that he was not emotionally invested in for the sake of maintaining His Image to the world something that would not change with Jada Jada obviously was interested in will but her own morality tried to convince him to fight for his family and make things work however will proceeded with the divorce and contacted Jada the moment he signed the divorce papers saying I literally walked right out from signing the divorce papers and I called J I said hey J what's up it's will she said hey how you doing I said good are you seeing anybody she said uh no and I said cool you're seeing me now Jada went along with it because her life was about to fall apart J's mother Adrien became pregnant in high school and gave birth to Jada at a very young age growing up in Baltimore Maryland Jada witnessed her mother endured domestic abuse from her father one night it got so bad that Adrien temporarily fled from their home her parents marriage was short-lived and they divorced after several months as a teenager struggling to raise a child Adrien dealt with a heroin addiction for most of Jay's childhood I could tell when my mother was high she couldn't make it on time to pick me up from school or she's nodding off falling asleep in the middle of something Jada's environment and upbringing led to her encountering drugs becoming a dealer at just 14 years old she was living a double life going to Baltimore School for the Arts during the day and dealing at night her mother eventually put her foot down and convinced Jada to clean up her act Jada resp responded by graduating high school before enrolling at the North Carolina School of the Arts she dropped out of college after one year to move to Los Angeles and pursue an acting career Jade's talent and good looks landed minor roles in TV shows like 21 Jump Street and doogie Hower MD before producer Debbie Allen gave her a consistent role on a different world which blew her up from there she landed a reoccurring role in The Cosby Show but her role as Ronnie the love interest and Menace to Society made her culturally beloved since hip-hop fans loved that movie Jada successfully made it out of the struggle but she was still not happy my career is popping I got money I'm hot people are pursuing you I got every dude everywhere wanting you know what I mean like I can have anybody I want why am I not happy this is when will came along and she latched on to him hoping that he would make her happy again at that time will hadn't finalized his divorce with Sheree meaning he and J kept their relationship Under Wraps we were both pretty famous and we felt like it just wouldn't have been a great look they indulged in an unpredictable secretive rendevu that sounds like it was taken straight out of a movie the couple traveled to Exotic secret getaways from Cabo to private Caribbean islands Aspen and secluded Estates in Maui capitalizing on his success on the Fresh Prince they took advantage of private air travel and regularly used aliases to check into hotels we fit together so naturally and our energies combined exponentially in a way that felt like old friends more than new lovers we had an unspoken language and everything we focused on flourished this romantic adventurous fling would come to a screeching halt whenever the marriage conversation popped up Jada didn't believe in a conventional marriage and despised a traditional ceremony she also had questions about the viability of monogamy as a framework for a successful long-term relationship despite the obvious warning sign of trying to settle down with a woman who does not want to will did not let that stop him from an early point in their relationship their suitability was questionable at Best But now Jada was pregnant and Will's determination to get married overpowered Jada's personal beliefs I never wanted to get married J revealed but my mother was like you have to get married she's so old school and will wanted a family so I said all right maybe it's something I should do even Jada's grandmother called will and cried her freaking eyes out so then I had to have a wedding and that was infuriating according to will Jada held her ground as long as she could but the wedding pressure likely from family and Friends became too much she was in her second trimester she was tired and uncomfortable and didn't want to argue so she surrendered and the couple married on New Year's Day in 1997 in a private ceremony in Baltimore Maryland however everyone at the ceremony seemed ecstatic besides the bride and I was so upset that I had to have a wedding I was so pissed we I went crying down the freaking AIS getting married cried the whole way and I was like oh like hey she be all right don't worry Jada referred to the ceremony as Grammy's wedding because Jada's grandmother was more excited than her while the event itself was joyful and heartwarming this would be the first of many compromises Jada would make over the years that painfully negated her own values she had boarded the whe train and there was no way off but why was she so against the idea of marriage I just never really agreed with the cont I just don't agree with it I never have I still don't till death do us part is real for me it's just all of the rules and all like you're supposed to do this as a wife you're supposed to do this as a husband you're supposed to do this in you can't do abely because of this title wife is a very difficult the accepted conventional conventional definition of wife the paradig in the Paradigm I'm not that then will goes on to say why he wanted a marriage so badly I don't know if I've ever said this you know how I'm a scientist so everything is science for me yes I read something when we first got together that the most successful men in history have been married right I knew that I would squander my life if I was running around okay the way my mind works I can only Excel for a woman when the woman who does not believe in the basic fundamentals of a marriage gets coerced to marry a man who only wants a wife so he doesn't derail his

perfect family a little boy and a little girl will continue to dominate Hollywood with hits like men in black and the bad boy series as well as Ali and IO bot but Will's perfect family needed the perfect home a 256 acre mansion that will desired but Jada despised she expressed how it was too big too expensive and too much space but Will's dreams couldn't be compromised and he bought it anyway nothing good comes from spending your hard-earned money on a family home that your wife doesn't want you are putting a down payment on Discord and for years you will be paying off a mortgage of misery or Worse from the moment he stepped foot in Hollywood will made a deliberate effort to become the biggest movie star in the world and he did achieve one of the most commercially successful runs in cinema history Independence Day Men In Black Hancock I Am Legend hitch sharktail Pursuit of Happiness are just a few of the multiple hundred million doll franchises he starred in The Fresh Prince of belir had truly transformed into the king of Hollywood but his legacy extended beyond the Silver Screen he ventured into producing films through his production company Overbrook entertainment and continued to push the boundaries of his acting career will became widely regarded as a highly skilled and versatile actor his acting abilities earned him critical Acclaim numerous Awards and nominations and a massive fan following all over the world by the 2010s will had solidified his name as one of the greatest actors of his generation Jada and will were seen as a beacon of Real Love in This chaotic industry yet Will's career outshined her so much that she was starting to be known as just Will Smith's wife which is kind of what he wanted J only appeared in lowbudget films and Will's music videos until Landing more substantial roles as naobi in the series and Gloria in Madagascar to make the resentment even stronger Jada's children were becoming superstars in their own right Willow's music career started off on fire with Whip My Hair peeking at number 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 Jaden start in two massive box office hits the pursuit of happiness and the Karate Kid in 2009 Barack Obama accepted his Nobel Peace Prize which was presented by The Smiths and the only interview he would do was with Will and Jada externally our family was winning and there was a period mommy woke up and cried 45 days straight I started keeping a diary you miss some days it was every morning I think that's the worst I've ever felt in our marriage I was failing miserably but on the outside I was winning but all of the money Fame and success came at the cost of deteriorating their relationship in his Memoir will detailed he and Jada's greatest argument that stemmed from a list of priorities each wrote independently then shared with one another in order of importance Jada's priorities were the children will herself and extended family and friends on the other hand will wrote himself Jada the children and his career Jada was devastated to read will prioritize himself over Trey Jaden and Willow he explained that if he doesn't take care of himself first he couldn't provide for the rest of his family but the damage was already done her heart was shattered she didn't even wipe the tears Jada stuck around in this marriage that she never wanted in in the first place so long because of her kids and the pressure to maintain the image created around the Smiths on one hand I wanted a career I'd worked so hard and yet there I was strung out on having to make decisions based on that and it was too difficult should I be a star should I be a mom a wife you can't be all three something has to give did you ever feel like Jada was ungrateful hell yeah look at everything that I've done for you that was another thing you grateful but that was the other thing because there were times I felt ungrateful cuz I was like look at your life how could you be so unhappy I used to think I was crazy even Will's children realized they were failing will recall the moment where he was eating ice cream in the kitchen with his daughter and wife Willow turned to Jada and said it's so sad Daddy has a picture of a family in his mind and it's not us this unstable relationship could not last and in 2011 they reached a Tipping Point in August 2011 rumors began that J was having an affair with Mark Anthony her co-star on Hawthorne at the time Anthony was the subject of many tabloids following his public separation from Jennifer Lopez however Jada's rep released a statement saying all of the rumors regarding Mark Anthony and Jada are false but the straw that finally broke the camel's back was during Jada's 40th birthday celebration will had started prepping for Jada's 40th 3 years earlier he invited hundreds of guests friends family other celebrities to a weekend long celebration in Santa Fe New Mexico Mary J blos performed and the guests were in awe of this beautiful celebration will curated but the three-year-long surprise was a documentary Will Made tracing Jada's family lineage back to slavery will resurfaced unseen pictures found family members and found a recording of her late beloved grandmother that she and her family had never heard before these were very deep and personal messages from her grandmother that he broadcasted to hundreds of people at the party the entire place is in tears her family my family everybody all except Jada she sat motionless refusing to to make eye contact with me the video ends family and friends erupt in a standing ovation that night jaded demanded that they cancel the rest of the weekend will said no and she finally erupted I'll cancel tomorrow she was like it's my birthday right and she told me that the party was the most ridiculous display of my ego crushed right and to this day I know I was crushed cuz it was true yeah it wasn't a party for her yeah and when she called me on that that's when I snapped and years later will admits he wasn't doing this gesture for Jada but at the time he couldn't understand what he may have done wrong when they returned to Los Angeles they separated and he said to Jada I retire from trying to make you happy you are free you need to go make yourself happy and prove to me that it's even possible but I quit you go do you and I'm going go do me they didn't file for divorce and they didn't announce to the public that they were separated which would cause confusion for years to come according to will he and Jada didn't reunite romantically until November 2016 which would mean that they were technically separated from September 2011 to November 2016 will and actress Margo Robbie began working together on the set of the crime drama Focus insiders claimed will and Margot were getting close on set even skipping the rap party to hang out in Will's trailer Star Magazine added fuel to the fire reporting a photo booth incident where will appeared shirtless and Margot lifted her shirt to reveal lingerie according to the source will appeared as if he was not married the public assumed he and Margot were either having an affair or that he and J were in an open relationship we now know that he and J were separated and in 2013 Jada responded to the rumors almost letting the cat out of the bag he can do whatever he wants because at the end of the day will is his own man this statement further confused the public who took it as confirmation of an open relationship Jada later rewrote her statement on Facebook saying here's how I will change my statement will and I both can do whatever we want because we trust each other to do so this does not mean we have an open relationship this means we have a grown one Margo addressed the rumors on Twitter there's absolutely no truth to the ridiculous rumor in starm mag it's disappointing that goofing around on set could be taken so out of context their relationship remained a strange behind the scenes but in public Will and Jada continued showing up to Red Carpet Events and award shows together hand inand to make things even more confusing she said this on Queen latifa's Show in 2014 Jada would come into my trailer and tell me girl she was in love yes and still and still are followed up by an interview on Howard CERN a few months later where she said here's what's real I'm not the kind of woman that believes that a man is not going to be attracted to other women I'm just not that girl it's just not realistic right and just because your man is attracted to another woman does not mean he doesn't love you right he does that does not that's not what it means and it doesn't mean he's going to act on it by this point Jada had said enough to make everyone believe that they were in an open relationship which would get even more complicated when Jada got into her Infamous entanglement with August Elena but before we jump into that let me just clarify a few things it's important to understand that will says they separated in 2011 after Jada's 40th birthday disaster but Jada says they separated in 2016 that's a huge difference and we don't really know why they say two different things now in 2018 Jada and will started sharing a lot of their life on social media media will started posting Vlogs on YouTube and Jada started hosting a podcast talkow on Facebook called red table talk alongside her mother and daughter Jada gave her hundreds of thousands of viewers insight into her life and relationship and it was around this time when people started to realize the Jada and will love was mostly a facade more specifically in episodes 11 and 12 which featured will accumulated tens of millions of views these episodes covered a lot of the information that you learned in this video people were amazed at their open and honest communication but they were talking about their relationship like they were divorced and they were also not wearing wedding rings they even say that they aren't married anymore they claim they are life partners and have redefined the definition of husband and wife to fit their unique Union June 21st 2020 was another episode where Will and Jada sat down and did another extremely deep dive into their marriage they laughed cried and seemed like the most normal version of themselves and if you're confused feeling are they married are they separated are they divorced that's literally how everyone else felt but just 8 days after will and Jada's beautiful one-on-one discussion August alcena shared news about his relationship with Jada that would shock the world I actually sat down with Will and had a conversation he gave me his blessing and I I totally gave myself to that relationship for years of my life and I truly and really really deeply loved and have a ton of love for her August admits that that not only did he fall Head Over Heels into deep love with Jada but he even had a conversation with Will about it and received his approval this led to people calling will a CU but others just looked at it as an open relationship the discourse online about it made Jada and will sit down on her red table talk show 3 weeks after August broke the news where they attempted to address all the rumors but it just got worse Jada sits down in front of Will and tells her all about her friendship with August August was a 23-year-old upand cominging R&B singer from New Orleans creating straight up babymaking bangers he had been suffering from a severe autoimmune disease that attacked his liver the illness led to multiple incidents including a collapse on stage in 2014 which ended up in a 3-day coma in 2015 he battled a degenerative eye disease that nearly caused him to go blind when he met the Smith family through befriending Jaden August was at a very low point in his life Jada seemingly took her friend's son under her wing with the intention of helping him heal but it progressed into a full-blown relationship they also mentioned that August came into their life when Jada and will were broken up I really felt like we could be over you know we were over and then what did you do Jada I think um you need to say clearly what happened as far as what you and I decided we were going to take our space and what happened yeah and then I got into an entanglement with August that's what I said an entanglement yes yes relationship yes it was a relationship based on Will's tone and his demand for Jada to admit it was a relationship it seemed like he was still upset even though this had happened more than four years ago cuz I wasn't sure I was ever going to speak to you again I know I know yeah like the fact that I'm speaking to you again is a is a miracle um I would agree I would agree no but it ain't for the week at heart there seemed to be a little bit more pain in Will's voice Will's obvious distress became a huge meme on online because again nobody knew the long history of their complicated life partnership all they thought was Will Smith's wife just got him on a podcast to tell him how much she loved another man but there's a really interesting part of this interview that most people missed I'm going to get you back first and then you going to get me back I think you've gotten me back I think you I think we're good on that okay okay that might that's probably true will jokingly said he is going to get her back but then immediately admits that he probably had this coming after all these years of Jada putting up with him what he did not realize is that he would not stop being an embarrassment after this moment it was only going to get worse on March 27th 2022 Will and Jada attended the 2022 Oscars together that night will was nominated for best actor for his portrayal of Richard Williams in the biographical Sports drama King Richard however things took a strange turn after Chris Rock made a joke about Jada who has spoken openly about having alipa a hair loss condition Chris compared Jada to Lieutenant Jordan O'Neal the star of GI Jane notorious for her short buzzcut hairstyle will initially laughed but then made it clear he didn't appreciate the joke as he stormed on stage and smacked Chris before telling him to keep my wife's name out of his mouth from The Silence of the audience and the look on Chris's face it seems like the reaction was 100% unscripted despite this encounter Chris didn't press charges and will won his first Oscar for best actor on the night of controversy this laap ignited the highest overall engagements on Twitter in history and basically nobody was on Will's side they pointed out he was initially laughing then changed his demeanor once he saw Jada was upset they Ed the entanglement situation to justify that will is just Jada's puppet that does whatever she says however even Jada was confused by what will did and said because she is not his wife I had no idea that that was none whatsoever and I came as family I actually didn't go to the Oscars as will Will's wife and I know for people that's weird but what was going on behind the scenes will and I had been set like we weren't living as husband and wife since 2016 I was happy he asked me to go the slap was clearly pent up Anger from will over the past 25 years Jen never wanted marriage will wanted it and everything went his way for the first 15 years he got her everything he thought she wanted the house the fame the money the kids but will still didn't feel like she loved him but will was not going to get divorced again as he saw his first divorce as his life's biggest failure in my adult life yeah divorce was the ultimate failure for me yeah I've been hurt a lot in my adult life but I don't think anything touches the failure of getting divorced he became desperate to make this marriage work even though Jada never wanted it then once the 40th birthday situation didn't work where he attempted to win back Jada's love he said okay I've tried everything and you still are not happy we're done go be happy but once she did that with August he didn't like that either and it seems like since then will has just been coping with this life partnership confusing half openen marriage thing as he goes on podcast talking about how marriage is a spiritual journey and writing in his Memoir about how his ego destroyed them and Jada was just writing the whe train which was fine until he got embarrassed in front of the whole world with the entanglement situation and reading everyone calling him a c maybe the slap was him trying to yet again win back her love show Jada that he is her protector no man is going to talk about my wife like that only for her to say wife I'm not your wife since 2016 and I never wanted to marry you but today Jada just keeps dumping salt on Will's wounds she just released her Memoir worthy which spends a ton of time confessing a deep love and admiration for her late friend Tupac Shakur Jada and Tupac met in high school in the 10th grade but also went to college at the Baltimore School for the Arts Jada says they immediately connected on a deep level when he said to her you're a beautiful woman you're talented you're strong and I respect you and you are my girl you're going to sit right here and I'm going to protect you I'm going to make sure if nothing else you get what you need at the time Jada was still freshly removed from her traumatic childhood and rough neighborhood while Tupac was still an innocent bright-eyed kid who enjoyed studying acting poetry and ballet as time went on their roles reversed with Jada explaining how she was coming out of this life and he was going more into the Life by the early 90s Tupac left the East Coast for the West Coast with aspirations of becoming a rapper as his career was beginning to take off so was Jas we were always trying to look for opportunities to work together it was because of Pac that I got men to society and we were always looking out for each other like that now Jada says her and Tupac were never romantically involved but the way she talks about him makes people think otherwise we definitely had this beautiful closeness that was really intimate but never physically intimate when you can sit with somebody and really feel like they see you they understand you they care about you and they're going to be there by you no matter what that was Tupac but it's also important to recognize that Jada has been talking about Tupac for years that was a huge loss in my life absolutely yeah because he was one of those people that I expected to be here and my upset is more anger mhm I mean it was beyond friendship for us you know as far as just it's really difficult to explain because the type of relationship we had you only get that once in a lifetime so a lot of people try to negate her relationship with Tupac but it was real and even people who were close toac say that he felt a strong love for her as well J pink J is my heart you know what I mean she will be my friend for my whole life she can have my one heart my my liver my lungs my kidneys my blood marrow all of that but if you compare the way she talks about will versus Pac it starts to seem like Tupac truly captured her heart and will could never live up to those standards what made you fall in love with him um I would say will came um at a time in my life where he saw Beauty in me that I didn't see in myself at the time and um you know he saw a diamond in the rough and he kind of picked me up and blew off all the dust and said I'm telling you I'mma make you shine girl certainly did looking at that R right exactly and I was going through a really rough time and um you know he he he created a space for a safe space for me nothing about Will's personality got her to fall in love with him it was the stability he provided but even will admits that he was resentful of Jada's love for Tupac uh were you ever jealous of the love Jada had for Tupac uh oh yeah oh my God that dude and you know and that was in the that was in the early days she just loved him like he was the image of perfection but she was with the Fresh Prince you know so it was like I I just I never could like even we were in a room together a couple times I couldn't speak to him you know and you know he wasn't going to speak to me if I wasn't going to speak to him but he also wrote in his Memoir I hated that I wasn't what he was in the world and I suffered a raging jealousy I wanted Jada to look at me like that even Will's daughter was aware of how much Tupac meant to Jada in 201 12 when Willow was 11 years old she posted a picture of the letter she had previously written to Tupac the letter read dear Tupac I know you are alive someplace I think my mommy really misses you can you please come back can you come back so mommy and me can be happy I wish you were here I really do love Willow many people consider Jada to be toxic ungrateful and unappreciative of Will Smith who is perceived to be a great man father and husband some people say will is a pathetic coward who constantly lets his partner publicly embarrass him will knew what he was was getting into he knew all about Tupac he knew Jada didn't want marriage yet he still pursued it and she rode for him for more than a decade now today I guess they're separated I mean I think they made it very clear that they are never going to file for divorce but that doesn't mean that they're still together they're new found confusing life partnership as well I don't even think they know what it is one thing that is very apparent about these two is they use this relationship to prophesize themselves them opening up about their marriage is somehow seen as more Brave and more complic ated than any of us since they are rich and famous which to some degree is true since millions and millions of people indulge in their marriage but all this does is one make them more money and two fill their egos to the brim thinking that they have some Divine Purpose to open up on behalf of all of the broken relationships and marriages in the world ironically I think most of the people who made it all the way to this point in the video agree that they do not under any circumstance want the type of relationship that Jada and will have
