Will Smith seems to be having a bad phase in his life ever since he slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars 2022. With reasons for getting offended over Rock making fun of his wife’s medical condition, Smith acted violently and slapped the comedian on live television.
Well, this slap led to the open discussion of Smith’s personal life as all his and Jada Pinkett Smith’s secrets were laid bare to the world. With talks of cheating and polygamous relationships, a tweet states that Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith…have been separated for 7 years!
Will Smith’s Slap Was For Nothing
Chaos ensued when Will Smith slapped Chris Rock at the 94th Oscars back in May 2022. The incident came to be known as the Oscar slap. While defending the honor of his wife Jada Pinkett Smith, the Men in Black actor seemed to cross the limits of professionalism with his act of violence.
With his married life laid bare for the world, there seems to be a twist in the tale. A recent tweet stated that Jade Pinkett Smith and Will Smith have been allegedly separated for 7 years!
The tweet accused Jada Smith of saying that she and the Bad Boys actor have been separated since 2016. This led to people trolling Smith for his slap and stating how it was all meant for nothing.

She couldn’t mention this at the red table talk where they “layed everything bare” in 2018?
If they’ve been this long separated, why then did Will Smith slap Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars to defend her as his wife?
Jada probably has never been emotionally married to Will Smith.…— Tc (@eric_tc24) October 11, 2023

Considering the history of the partners, it could all just be a big rumor as well since Jada Pinkett Smith has stated that every summer, a new rumor would circulate that she and Will Smith had divorced.
One such summer and one such rumor led to Chris Rock asking Jada Smith out on a date which became an awkward encounter for Chris Rock.
When Chris Rock Asked Jada Smith Out on a Date
With rumors and speculations surrounding the couple, there have been several instances in which people believed that Jada and the Independence Day actor had broken up. Chris Rock was also one of the believers as Jada Smith talked to People and revealed that the comedian had once asked her out on a date!
“I think every summer all the reports would come out that me and Will were getting a divorce. And this particular summer, Chris, he thought that we were getting a divorce. So he called me and basically he was like, ‘I’d love to take you out.’ And I was like, ‘What do you mean?’ He was like, ‘Well, aren’t you and Will getting a divorce?’ I was like, ‘No. Chris, those are just rumors.’”
In the end, Will Smith and Chris Rock’s controversy has not come to a rest as Smith is trying desperately to revive his career once again. The couple promised each other that they would never get a divorce and both try to hold onto that promise desperately!
