Jada Pinkett Smith reveals how her and Will Smith’s kids reacted to bombshell ‘Worthy’ memoir
- 6 months ago
Jada Pinkett Smith’s kids are well aware of what’s in her “Worthy” memoir.
The actress made sure Jaden Smith and Willow Smith were “OK with” the stories featured in her book, especially the ones “about them specifically,” she told InStyle in an interview published Tuesday.
The Daytime Emmy winner clarified that her 22-year-old daughter is an “avid reader” and devoured “a huge part of [the] book before it was even edited.”
Jada, 52, gushed, “She loved it. She couldn’t wait. She [was] like, ‘Mom, I’m taking this copy. I got to finish my read.'”
While Willow was allegedly “super excited about it,” the “Whip My Hair” singer’s siblings have yet to read the book, which hits stands Tuesday.
The boys, I just told them what was in it,” Jada recalled of Jaden, 25, and her 30-year-old stepson Trey Smith’s reactions.
“They’ll read it eventually,” she predicted.
However, ”Entertainment Tonight” reported Monday that Jada’s candid confessions about her and Will Smith’s marriage — and secret seven-year separation — on her press tour have left Willow and Jaden “feel[ing] bad” for their dad.
They know he has been going through a lot lately and this isn’t helping,” a source told the outlet. “They wish some of their family’s private matters remained private.
“[Will] is trying not to let any outside noise impact him,” the insider continued. “Will loves Jada and feels like he has always had her back and always will. He has been trying to be supportive, while also taking care of himself.”
Jada, meanwhile, has insisted that the bombshell reveals from her book have actually “benefited” her relationship “a lot.
“You never stop learning about your partner,” she told InStyle. “It gave [Will] such intimate insight into everything in a way that I don’t know if he would’ve had without a book.”
Jada explained that her husband was able to “learn so much without having to ask the questions,” adding, “I think that’s been a huge benefit. It’s really beautiful.”
Similarly, Will told the New York Times via email over the weekend that his wife’s memoir “woke [him] up.
The Oscar winner, 55, wrote that he’d previously grown “emotional[ly] blind” to her “hidden nuances and subtle beauties.”
Will is no stranger to sharing his marriage woes with the public as Jada came clean about her and actor August Alsina’s romantic “entanglement” in 2020 — which she has since clarified was not “cheating.”
Last week, Jada revealed that she and the “King Richard” star have been living apart for years but are still willing to “work through whatever” and not considering divorce.
