Despite Pinkett Smith’s revelation that the two have been separated, the Hollywood couple has been candid about why divorce “just canβt be an option.”
Jada Pinkett Smith reveals in her upcoming memoir that her marriage with Will Smith is not what it appears.
Pinkett Smith and Smith have been separated since 2016. While not legally divorced, the two have been living “completely separate lives” for the past seven years, she said in a prime-time special with Hoda Kotb that aired Oct.
I made a promise that there will never be a reason for us to get a divorce,β she told Hoda. βWe will work through whatever. And I just havenβt been able to break that promise.β
At the end of the interview, Hoda asked Pinkett Smith directly: βWhy not just amicably divorce?β
Pinkett Smith similarly provided a straightforward answer: “βWe donβt want to.”
βWe love our family. And we love each other. Itβs more of a life partnership,” she explained. “Now, 10 years from now, Hoda, who knows?β
Their current focus is on “deep healing,” Pinkett Smith added.
As for the possibility of reconciliation?
βHeβs getting old!β Pinkett Smith joked in response. βWhoβs going to be there for him, Hoda? Itβs going to be me.β
The two have publicly discussed their views on divorce over the years. For example, in 2008, Smith once said on Ellen DeGeneresβ talk show that βdivorce just canβt be an option.β
