SHOCKED: Jada Pinkett Smith Reveals Will Smith’s Gay Secret In NEW Interview, she can’t get divorced soon because of this – WATCH 

Jada Pinkett Smith confronts Will Smith gay rumors and more bombshells from NBC special

In a twinkling Hollywood night filled with laughter and cheers, an unexpected thunderstorm rolled in, its lightning crackling between Will Smith and Chris Rock. At the heart of this storm was a seemingly ordinary gesture from Jada Pinkett Smith, a slight rolling of the eyes, which many believe nudged Will Smith into taking a stand for his beloved wife against a joke made by Chris Rock.

As Chris Rock aimed a joke at Jada Pinkett Smith’s shaved head, a ripple of laughter spread across the crowd, but not everyone found it amusing. Jada’s rolling eyes mirrored the clouds gathering in the starry sky, and before anyone knew it, Will Smith’s hand had met Chris Rock’s face in a clap louder than the applause.

The 52-year-old “Girls Trip” actress is telling-all in promotion for her memoir “Worthy,” which hits shelves on Oct. 17.

In snippets of the interview shared Thursday, Pinkett Smith revealed she and her husband, Will Smith, 55, have been separated for the past seven years — even when he told Chris Rock to keep his “wife’s f–cking name out” of his mouth at the 2022 Oscars.

“First of all, I’m really shocked, because mind you, I’m not there. We haven’t called each other husband and wife in a long time,” she told Kotb, 59.

Pinkett Smith added she was very confused at the time, saying: “I’m really worried for Will because I don’t know what’s going on.”

The couple married in 1997 and share kids, Jaden, 25, Willow, 22, and Trey, 30. (Will welcomed son Trey, 30, with ex wife Sheree Zampino.)

Despite living separately for nearly a decade, Pinkett Smith claims she and the “Switch” rapper won’t be divorcing anytime soon.

But the “Magic Mike” star’s full conversation with Kotb revealed even more bombshells.

Why Jada Pinkett and Will Smith won’t get divorced any time soon

The reason why Hollywood’s power couple won’t legally divorce is simple: They don’t want to.

“We don’t want to because we love our family and we love each other” Pinkett Smith claimed.

“You know, it’s more of a life partnership. Now 10 years from now, Hoda? Who knows,” she laughed, adding the pair are currently focused on “deep healing” rather than letting each other know if they’re in other relationships.
