Jada Pinkett-Smith Says Will’s Oscar Stunt Has Strengthened Their Marriage

According to Jada Pinkett Smith, Will Smith’s infamous 2022 Oscar slap saved their marriage. In an interview published on Saturday, she told the Daily Mail about her thoughts on Will and her marriage. Jada Pinkett Smith claims that the event made them face their problems and strengthened their bond. She clarified that it was a wake-up call for both, resulting in a more profound comprehension and heightened dedication to their relationship.

“After all those years trying to figure out if I would leave Will’s side, it took that slap for me to see I will never leave him,”

“Who knows where our relationship would be if that hadn’t happened?”

The “I Am Legend” star and the host of “Red Table Talk Show” were wed in 1997, but it was suddenly disclosed in October that the two had been discreetly separated for seven years. But Pinkett Smith said that on that Los Angeles night, everything changed when her husband stormed onto the stage to slap Chris Rock for making a joke about her alopecia. The mother of two told the outlet that, despite “nearly” missing the occasion, she was “glad” to be there.

“I call it the ‘holy slap’ now because so many positive things came after it,”

“That moment of the s–t hitting the fan is when you see where you really are.”

Pinkett Smith, 52, published her candid memoir “Worthy” over two months ago, sharing a ton of information about her family and her husband on the net. Still, Will didn’t mind, even though she disclosed the difficulties in their marriage and hinted at her affair with singer August Alsina.
