Jada Pinkett Smith says that she and Will Smith were separated for six years at the time of the 2022 Oscars incident.
It's been nearly two years since the now infamous moment at the Academy Awards in 2022 when Will Smith slapped Chris Rock, and now Jada Pinkett Smith is finally speaking out about the incident and revealing some major information about her marriage in the process. In an interview with People, Smith reveals that she and Will have been separated for seven years at this point — and had been separated for six years at the time of the Oscars in 2022.
"I think by the time we got to 2016, we were just exhausted with trying," Smith said."I think we were both kind of just still stuck in our fantasy of what we thought the other person should be." "I thought, 'This is a skit,'" Smith said."I was like, 'There's no way that Will hit him.' It wasn't until Will started to walk back to his chair that I even realized it wasn't a skit."
"You don't know that I was going to jump in my car and roll up there. I was so f-ing mad on so many levels," Jones told the magazine in a recent chat."For a long a-- time I was just mad. Chris Rock did a f-ing joke. I know Will, too... I was like, you couldn't handle that s--t afterwards. This is the Oscars. The whole world is watching."
