Will Smith has left his fans "confused" after sharing a series of touching photos of his family celebrating Thanksgiving.

The Smith family has been in the headlines quite a lot over the last couple of months, following the release of Jada Pinkett Smith's eye-opening memoir, Worthy.

Prior to the release of her book, Jada went on a promotional tour where she shared several headline-grabbing revelations about her life and relationship with her husband, Will.

For example, in a candid interview with PEOPLE, the 52-year-old star dropped the bombshell that she and Will have secretly been separated for seven years - leaving many people with more questions than answers. (Most notably about that infamous Oscars slap.)

Then, in an interview with Rolling Out, Pinkett Smith opened up about her relationship with the late rapper Tupac Shakur, describing him as her "soulmate".

But despite Jada claiming that many people "missed the point" of her comments about her marriage - emphasizing that they are "working very hard" to repair their relationship - many of the couple's fans are still trying to work out what the heck is going on.

This became evident when the 55-year-old Men In Black star took to Instagram over Thanksgiving to share some touching photos of his family celebrating the holidays, captioning the post: "Best Thanksgiving Ever."

Captured by celebrity photographer Alan Silfen, Will posed with several members of the Smith family, including wife Jada, his three children - Jaden, Willow, and Trey - and even his ex-wife Sheree Zampino.

And in one touching photo, Will can even be seen kissing Jada lovingly on the head.

Unsurprisingly, this show of affection and celebration of his extended family left many of his Instagram followers scratching their heads - and some took to the comments section to share their thoughts.

"I’m just so confused about y’all life," one person replied, with another adding: "Look like a married couple to me not a separated one."

"I'm confused," a third commented.

However, despite the confusion, there were many fans who praised Will for sharing the pictures and for always standing by his family.

"Gotta respect Will. Through every single person and thing that is said negative, he keeps it pushing," one person commented. "Pride and respect to the family. True testament of what being a father and a family man is."

Another added: "This reeks of emotional maturity and adulting at a very high level."

"True definition of blocking out the noise. I will always be a Will Smith fan. Great post," another fan wrote.

Others were always quick to highlight that no family is perfect and that family dynamics are different for everyone.

"They’ve decided to tear down and rebuild! I see nothing wrong with it. Healing doesn’t always look the same way. Blessings to them," one person pointed out.

One Instagram user wrote: "Right now somebody is scrolling through these photos and is actually mad at the love on display. All families can’t enjoy each other’s company and smile like this. I love to see it. Bless this family."

"This is the epitome of love and connection. Take notes. Take notes. Take notes. It’s deeper than you think," one person added.
