“This woman wants to push Will to ask for a divorce. “On social networks, the reactions are numerous in reaction to publications according to which Jada Pinkett Smith would have revealed in an interview that she “never wanted to marry Will Smith”. If these messages are particularly viral, they do not contain any link to the “interview” in question.
In the publications, the text is often accompanied by a photo in which we can see Will Smith and Jada Pinkett posing in Los Angeles at the Dolby Theater, before the Oscars ceremony on March 27. During the ceremony, the American comedian had slapped Chris Rock on stage after a joke from the presenter about the shaved head of Jada Pinkett, who had already, in the past, publicly mentioned his alopecia (loss of hair). Since then, Will Smith has been banned from any ceremony organized by the Academy of Oscars for ten years.
FAKE OFF
The interview in question is an excerpt from the show Red Table Talkhosted in particular by Jada Pinkett and broadcast on Facebook Watch in 2018, as noted by the New York Post. Contrary to what viral publications suggest, in particular thanks to the recent illustration photo, there is no link between the last Oscar ceremony at the end of March and the words of Jada Pinkett, which she made in 2018, therefore.
The viral publications, however, largely divert the words of the actress. At the time of Red Table Talk, Jada Pinkett evokes the particular conditions in which she married Will Smith in 1997: “I had so much pressure on my shoulders. I was a young actress [elle avait 26 ans], I was pregnant and I didn’t know what to do. Will Smith was also present during this discussion. “We got married only because Gammy [Adrienne Banfield-Norris, la mère de Jada Pinkett] was crying,” he joked when his wife broached the subject of their marriage.
In addition, Jada Pinkett does not say that she “never wanted to marry Will Smith”. She says she “never wanted to get married” at all. And to clarify that she has “never adhered to the idea of marriage”.
According to viral posts, Jada Pinkett “even adds that it was an ‘awful’ wedding and ‘crying in the aisle'”. In reality, if Will Smith’s wife did claim to “have cried in the aisle” during her wedding, it was because of the particular conditions in which it took place, and not because of her relationship. with the American comedian.
