After slapping comedian Chris Rock who had just made a joke about his wife’s cropped hair during the Oscars ceremony, Will Smith is in turmoil. The Academy of Oscars has decided to ban the actor from any ceremony for 10 years. For his part, Will Smith had tendered his resignation after admitting to having betrayed the trust of the organization. “I deprived other contestants and winners of the chance to celebrate their extraordinary work”, he admitted.
Since the incident, the slightest public appearance of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett has been spied on, as have their messages posted on social networks. Their relationship is the subject of numerous press articles. The American media do not hesitate to publish old interviews carried out by the two American stars.
I was under so much pressure
Recently, it is an episode broadcast in 2018 in the Red Table Talk (a program bringing together the family) which is shared. In this one, Jada Pinkett Smith confides the fears experienced on her wedding day. “I really didn’t want to get married”, she lets go. “We only got married because Gammy (Jada’s mother, editor’s note) was crying”, adds Will Smith, smiling.
In this episode, Jada Pinkett Smith does not question the feelings that bind her to her husband but evokes the pressure she felt when it came to talking about marriage. “I had so much pressure you know. Being a young actress, being young and I was just, like, pregnant. And I didn’t know what to do,” she reports. And it seems that this pressure has accompanied him until D-Day. “I was so upset I cried in the aisle. I cried all the way down the aisle,” she remembers.
Jada and Will were married at Cloisters Castle, Maryland, recalls the New York Post. Both spouses finally concluded that getting married had been a good decision. Together, they have two children aged 23 and 21: Jaden and Willow.
