Jada Pinkett Smith feels that opting out of a prenuptial agreement with Will Smith is the key to their “special connection,” after revealing that they have been discreetly separated since 2016.
While speaking with Parade about her upcoming memoir, Worthy, Jada, 52, confessed why she didn’t get a prenup before marrying the Fresh Prince of Bel Air actor in 1997.
“And that’s why we don’t need a prenup, because I’m making a promise that divorce won’t be necessary, that we will figure this out,” Jada explained.
Weddings, according to the Red Table Talk hostess, “can be very romanticised.”
However, their early understanding of the “possibility of us not being together” drew them even closer together.
“I feel that was a very real moment for the two of us to look at each other in the eyes, recognise that there would be tough times in this journey and to say to each other, ‘No matter what, we’re going to figure it out,’” she said.
She went on to say that she considers herself “very lucky” to have someone who is “willing to go through tough times” with her.
The mother of three recently made headlines when she revealed that she and Will, with whom she shares three children, Jaden, Willow, and Trey, have been discreetly separated since 2016.
