How Will And Jada Navigate An Open Relationship

Will Smith’s latest GQ cover story answered a ton of questions that we’ve had for a while now. In an interview published in September of 2021, Will got real about, well, a lot of things. He talked about his new self-titled memoir that’s set to be released in November. He shared his thoughts on the Black Lives Matter movement. He talked about where he was in his life and how he intends to spend the rest of it. And surprisingly, he opened up about his relationship with his wife of 23 years, Jada Pinkett Smith. Specifically, he addressed the oh-so-famous episode of Jada’s Facebook Watch series, Red Table Talk. Last year, Will appeared on an episode and the couple had a very raw and honest conversation addressing the rumors that Jada had had a “romantic entanglement” with singer, August Alsina a few years prior. It was… heavy, to say the least. But because the events of the episode took place so long before they discussed it, it was clear that they were in a different place at that time. Well, some people thought so. But a lot of people were still just mad at Jada and their decision to stay open in their marriage. The recent GQ article, however, laid everything out on the table. Will revealed a lot of what led to the breaking point in their marriage as well as confirming that he too was involved in romantic relationships outside of their marriage. Their journey from being in a monogamous marriage to being life partners helped them to navigate their marriage in a way that is healthy and authentic to them. And while their journey may not be for everyone, we love seeing the two of them happier in their new dynamic.
