You can be separated and co-parents and best friends and care about each other 🤷🏼‍♀️

A lot more people are realising their marriage isn't working but they still cohabitate and function as a family.
I imagine it would be even easier in a mansion where you are guaranteed your own space!

They live separately.

That shit was so staged and weird, even by Hollywood standards Confused

Lonesomefetter · 12/10/2023 05:06

Like the whole Britney shit and dancing with knives and God knows. Just let the crazy people get on with it.

It's very different if you're in the public eye, scrutinised and high earners in that way. I'd find it draining.

Matt Damon appears to be one who keeps his family entirely separate from his public persona.

Aren't they Scientologists? I think divorce isn't permitted in Scientology which might explain the staying married but being separated.

Plenty of blind items about this pair over the years. Not saying they are true of course, but they have played out so far… time will tell I guess.

giddymonday · 12/10/2023 06:12

he said "take my wife's name out of your mouth" but according to this, they weren't married at the time! And all those red table talks analysing their marriage.
Whatever this is, we're not getting the full story.

PinkMoscatoLover · 12/10/2023 06:14

They’re so strange. Then Jada revealed that Chris Rock had asked her out on a date during their separation. As if Jada’s entanglement with August Alsina wasn’t enough for us to know about.

Jada keeps on revealing all of this information about their relationship unprovoked. They need to take us out of the groupchat!!

Yeah, but they're in that environment. Very little is private. I even hate filling in census forms so can't imagine what it's like having everything so public.

Although they may get addicted to it in a way.

PinkMoscatoLover · 12/10/2023 06:31

@BastetsWhiskers very little is private when you’re a celebrity but so many manage to keep intimate details of their lives private! Jada just keeps giving us information if their marriage for absolutely no reason at all.

Didn’t she say that they’ve been separated for years within her new book? It’s not like it was leaked by the media or something, she told the world. Again for no reason

It’s great when people can separate amicably and still care about each other. The weird bit is the Red Table Talks discussing their marriage as if they were still together and Will yelling about ‘my wife’ while punching a man.

I interpreted it as they live separate lives under the same roof, but I may have missed something 😊

Pumpernickles · 12/10/2023 07:33

Maybe he's just a violent man who wanted an excuse to wallop someone.

FastAndLast · 12/10/2023 07:34

They’re a pair of weirdos 🤷🏼‍♀️

blanketsmell · 12/10/2023 07:35

It's clearly an "unconventional" marriage but who cares. If it works for them what's the issue?

itsgoingtobeabumpyride · 12/10/2023 07:41

I wonder if she thinks her only relevance to other people is the fact that she's married to Will Smith?
Which is quite sad.
She gets a lot of exposure from being Mrs Smith.
She's not a bad actress, seen her in a couple of movies but would she be as famous without her husband, would anyone have been interested in her Red Table Talk if she wasn't married to him?
Prior to the "slap" I liked Will Smith.
They both seem a bit strange and Jada makes it worse by exposing their lives.
The kids are a bit out there too, Jayden applied for emancipation at 15 and seems to be a bit of a conspiracy theorist.

NigelHarmansNewWife · 12/10/2023 07:41

Didn't they claim to have an open marriage for years? I mean cut the cord and both get on with your lives. Why, when at least one of you is seeing other people, would you stay married? Weird co-dependency it seems to me.

thecatsthecats · 12/10/2023 08:30

They said that they were "life partners", because their relationship was so robust and perfect that they couldn't possibly separate.

It sounded like famous last words at the time.

Khurgunow · 29/10/2023 11:41

Who really gives two beeps about there relationship? Seriously? So what a man slapped another man for making a joke? Why is it so damn important? Will smith is a god damn legend and everyone doesn't have a problem watching his movies. He slapped Chris rock for a good reason, maybe not sensible but he did it cause of his wife. So the f what? Crazy you guys are.making a man suffer. If that happened on the streets no one would give a beep.

Well, they make people care by being in the press often enough. She's got a memoir to sell!

Probably wouldn't have had a publishing deal if it wasn't for the scandal. I didn't know her name prior that.
