Jada Pinkett Smith Slams Will Smith Divorce Rumors
LOS ANGELES, June 26 (UPI) — Jada Pinkett Smith and husband Will Smith are still very much together.
The 43-year-old actress declared as much in an interview with Entertainment Tonight ahead of the Magic Mike XXL premiere Thursday. Pinkett Smith slammed new reports she and the 46-year-old actor are headed for divorce.
“It’s actually good news and bad news,” she said. “The good news is there’s nothing else to talk about. This has been the only story. Let’s round up that divorce story again! The bad part of it is, Will and I love each other so much. Our family and our relationship is so important.”
“You would think that people would be rooting for you to stay together, not to break up,” she mused. “If people can go to sleep at night creating those stories, then hey, have it. Just so you know, we’re not getting a divorce… again! He won’t be with me tonight at the premiere, so here we go!”
Pinkett Smith will star alongside Channing Tatum, Joe Manganiello and Amber Heard in Magic Mike XXL, which opens in theaters July 1. The actress stunned at the film’s premiere in a strapless yellow dress and gold heels, albeit without Smith by her side.
Pinkett Smith and Smith married in December 1997, and are parents to 16-year-old son Jaden and 14-year-old daughter Willow. The couple recently made headlines for their open marriage and were victims of a home intruder earlier this year.
