Jada Pinkett Smith confirmed that she and her husband, Will Smith, have been living “separately” since 2016 during an interview on Wednesday’s episode of the Today show. Pinkett explained that she was not “ready yet” to make the announcement before now. The comments sparked a fervor of reactions from fans on social media.
“[We were] still trying to figure out between the two of us how to be in partnership, right, and in regards to how do we present that to people,” Pinkett explained. “And we hadn’t figured that out.” From there, she recalled: “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.” She added that they considered getting a legal divorce but decided against it. She said: “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.”

Jada’s emotionally abusive & it’s been sickening to watch. If she’s not telling the world that Will never, “satisfied her in bed,” bragging about cheating on him, berating him for defending her against Chris Rock, etc, she’s figuring out ways to embarrass this man. Deplorable https://t.co/bPgtWtgbRy
