Will Smith showers Jada Pinkett Smith and their ‘brutiful’ romance with praise

Separated or not, there seems to remain a great deal of love between Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith.

Smith reportedly showed up in Pinkett Smith’s hometown of Baltimore on Wednesday night for a promotional event for her new memoir, “Worthy.”

“I just really wanted to come out and just be here and hold it down for you the way you have held it down for me,” Smith said, according to the Baltimore Sun. “We have had a very, very long and tumultuous [relationship]. We call it ‘brutiful.’”

Pinkett Smith recently revealed during an interview that she and her husband have been living “completely separate lives” since 2016.

Pinkett Smith, 52, and Smith, 55, have been married since 1997 and she has said they are not legally divorced.

In subsequent interviews since her shocking revelation, Pinkett Smith has painted her and her estranged husband as being on good terms, including saying they are now in a “beautiful” place.

Smith appeared to confirm that Wednesday night, praising Pinkett Smith for her sacrifices and referring to their relationship as a “sloppy public experiment in unconditional love,” according to the Baltimore Banner.

Also present at the event were the couple’s two adult children together, Jaden and Willow, and Smith’s son Trey, whom he shares with ex-wife Sheree Zampino.

Goddamn William, let it go.

There's no saving him apparently.

[firebrat1229]

Ah, fuck. Well there goes the microscopic shred of sympathy I had for him. That'll teach me.

[no1novice]

He must be sooooo fucking scared of being outed.

[icepik]

She must have some serious shit on Will if he's allowing this sort of degradation, and praising her for it. This is just mind blowing.

This has got to be my favorite together/not together story ever.  I can't think of another couple who were separated that long without us knowing about it, but they're out there.  We here on GR knew about the Scientology stuff many years ago. So how did they not get outed? Where does he live? Those LA paps would follow him all over town to get a photo especially after the slap. How has neither of them been seen without a date in all these years? I saw her book in a bookstore, the cover is scary. Like her!

That is quite the breaking news bulletin.

I kind of assumed she had some shit on him and by shit I mean, his down low play. I can't think of any other reason he tolerates this bullshit.

And while it's easy to "blame" him, if it's true and she is using his extra-curriculars to keep him silent whilst she stomps all over him, shame on her. More than him even because I understand his fear. Using his fear to control the narrative and traipse all over him makes her despicable to me.

Note to Will: If your bedroom activities are what is welding you to Jada, just admit it and move on. We truly DO NOT CARE. But you need to take away her spotlight because she cray.

Can we copy John Travolta in on that?

[mostroop]

I guess they should have said former best friend.

[MsDark]

Thank gawd for this 'friend'. Does this mean Will can finally get a divorce?

As long as he's enjoying it, let him have all the gay sex he wants as long as I don't have to see this fake marriage continue.

I think this has been building for a minute and they knew it couldn't be contained for much longer.  Probly why Jada let it out that they've been separated since 2016.

LSA is lame af for not having sh*t about this on their main page.
