<h3 style="text-align: center;">Jada Pinkett Smith Explains How Her Recent Revelations Have Brought Her &; Will &#8220;Closer&#8221;</h3>
<p>Jada Pinkett Smith sat down for an <a href="https://www.today.com/popculture/jada-pinkett-smith-will-smith-reconcile-marriage-rcna120565" target="_blank" rel="noopener">exclusive follow-up interview</a> with TODAY&#8217;s Hoda Kotb on Monday. During the segment, Smith reflected on publicly revealing the state of her marriage with Will Smith during their previous interview.</p>
<p>Additionally, the actress affirmed that she feels like she &#8220;made the right choice.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Absolutely&#8230; at some point, I had to talk about my journey,&#8221; Smith explained. &#8220;I think there&#8217;s so many of us who hold so much — specifically women and feeling like we&#8217;re going to be criticized, we&#8217;re going to be judged. And you can&#8217;t say anything&#8230;&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Smith explained that her public revelations have brought her and her husband &#8220;closer.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;And the beautiful part about it is like this whole journey, as difficult as it&#8217;s been, has just brought Will and I closer in such an authentic way,&#8221; Smith continued. &#8220;Instead of trying to be a thing, it&#8217;s just tearing all that down and finding what&#8217;s true between us&#8230; And it&#8217;s been difficult but beautiful.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>The 52-year-old explained that she and her husband kept their separation private to give themselves &#8220;time&#8221; to &#8220;figure out what we wanted.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;We were&#8230; in this very fragile place, and so now, we&#8217;re just super solid. And so now I can actually talk about what the journey has been.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Ultimately, Smith explained that she and Will will not be finding &#8220;another great love.&#8221; Instead, they are in a &#8220;deep healing space&#8221; and are &#8220;working hard&#8221; on &#8220;healing&#8221; their &#8220;relationship&#8221; and &#8220;life partnership.&#8221;</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Will Smith Breaks His Silence On The Matter With A Public Statement &; Humorous Video</h3>
<p>On Saturday, Will Smith broke his silence amid his wife&#8217;s recent revelations with an exclusive statement to the <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2023/10/14/arts/jada-pinkett-smith-worthy.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York Times</a>. In the statement, Smith explained his &#8220;emotional blindness&#8221; toward his wife. Additionally, he also highlighted her &#8220;hidden nuances and subtle beauties.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;When you’ve been with someone for more than half of your life, a sort of emotional blindness sets in, and you can all too easily lose your sensitivity to their hidden nuances and subtle beauties,&#8221; the 55-year-old explained.</p></blockquote>
<p>Then, on Sunday, Smith shared a humorous video that also seemed to respond to him and his wife taking over the recent headlines. The 55-year-old captioned the clip, &#8220;Notifications off :).&#8221;</p>
<p>The video showed Smith taking a nap on a boat, trailblazing the sea as his phone notifications went wild. As Smith awakes, the clip shows him shaking his head while looking at the camera, almost in disbelief.</p>
