ILE – Will Smith, left, and Jada Pinkett Smith arrive at the 27th annual Critics Choice Awards in Los Angeles on March 13, 2022. Pinkett Smith and husband Will Smith have lived what she says are “completely separate lives” since 2016. Pinkett Smith made the revelation in an interview with Hoda Kotb. The prominent Hollywood couple married in 1997 and have addressed separations and marital troubles. But never this specifically.

The “Men in Black” star sent the New York Times an email saying the revelations “kind of woke [him] up,” adding that Pinkett Smith, was more “resilient, clever and compassionate than [he’d] understood.”
“When you’ve been with someone for more than half of your life, a sort of emotional blindness sets in,” Smith wrote, according to the Times article published Saturday. “And you can all too easily lose your sensitivity to their hidden nuances and subtle beauties.”
Smith’s remarks come mere days after Pinkett Smith sat down with Hoda Kotb and revealed that she and the “I Am Legend” star have been separated for seven years.
