Ana Navarro has accused Jada Pinkett Smith of making recent revelations about her separation from Will Smith purely to "sell books".
Jada, 52, has been making the headlines lately as she has sat down for a series of candid interviews to discuss her upcoming book, Worthy.
One of her most startling revelations was that she and her husband Will had secretly been separated for seven years, which has raised the eyebrows of some people, including Ana.
On a recent episode of The View, Ana has hit out at the 52-year-old, claiming that she is using this information to make money from the sales of her book.
"Listen, I think she's having a relationship with her bank account," Ana said. "Because every time she needs to increase the ratings of the Red Table, every time she needs to sell books, she drops these bombshells. I find it unseemly. Be careful of anybody who pretends to have a perfect marriage."
Other stars on the show including Joy Behar and Sunny Hostin defended Jada, as Sunny said: "It's a memoir, though, and she writes in her memoir that they've been separated for all of that time. I think it's a brave thing to do. I think it's a courageous thing to do. I think it has less to do with money. She has plenty."

Though it would seem that Ana wasn't deterred, as she questioned: "Why do I know so much about these people's marriage?"
She went on: "I kind of feel like I know more about their marriage than I know about my own damn marriage. I don't need to know all of this. You know what? I just want to watch reruns of Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and Bad Boys. Just leave this out of my head."
On the matter of the separation, Jada had told Today's Hoda Kotb: "Why it fractured... that - that’s a lot of things... By the time we got to 2016, we were just exhausted with trying. I think we were both kind of just still stuck in our fantasy of what we thought the other person should be.

"I made a promise that there will never be a reason for us to get a divorce. We will work through... whatever. I just haven't been able to break that promise."
Jada's book, Worthy, is available to purchase on October 17.
