<a href="https://vt.co/entertainment/celebrity/jada-pinkett-smith-will-chris-rock-date-separation">Jada Pinkett Smith</a> has said that she and Will Smith may get divorced in a decade's time after revealing that they've been secretly separated for seven years. The actress has been making some startling revelations lately, all building up to the release of her new book, Worthy. The 52-year-old has lifted the lid on her marriage with Will Smith, as she revealed that the pair have been secretly separated for seven years but aren't getting divorced. Jada admitted to <a href="https://www.today.com/popculture/jada-pinkett-will-smith-separated-rcna105300" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Today's Hoda Kotb</a> that during the infamous slap at the Oscars, that was the first time she had heard Will refer to her as his wife in a long time. This is the moment Will Smith slapped Chris Rock: [[jwplayerwidget||https://content.jwplatform.com/videos/CbUP0TKj-dkXnENEs.mp4||CbUP0TKj]] "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 said. When questioned about why they don't get divorced if they have been living separate lives, the answer is that they simply don't want to. "We don’t want to because we love our family and we love each other," Jada said. "You know, it’s more of a life partnership. Now 10 years from now, Hoda? Who knows." <img class="size-full wp-image-1263232615" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/10/GettyImages-1388061860.jpg" alt="Jada and Will Smith" width="683" height="1024" />[[imagecaption|| Jada revealed that she and Will have been separated for seven years.

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." However, not everyone is sold by Jada and her confessions, as <a href="https://vt.co/entertainment/ana-navarro-the-view-jada-pinkett-smith-will-split-sell-books">Ana Navarro expressed her thoughts</a> during an episode of <a href="https://vt.co/entertainment/celebrity/ana-navarro-the-view-jada-pinkett-smith-will-split-sell-books">The View</a>, where she explained that she thinks the 52-year-old is just trying to sell books. "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." <img class="size-full wp-image-1263232616" src="https://img.vt.co/2023/10/GettyImages-1388061779.jpg" alt="Jada Pinkett Smith" width="683" height="1024" />[[imagecaption|| Jada is promoting her new book, Worthy.

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." Worthy is available to purchase right now. <h6>Featured image credit: Kevin Mazur/Getty</h6>
