Will Smith was left in tears after reuniting with his Fresh Prince of Bel-Air co-star Janet Hubert.
Hubert famously starred as Vivian Banks in the popular sitcom, appearing in 73 episodes of the show from 1990 to 1993.
However, fans were left scratching their heads after Hubert was inexplicably replaced by actress Daphne Maxwell Reid at the start of season four.
Janet Hubert tells Will Smith that his comments caused her to "lose everything":

Reid would go on to play Smith's no-nonsense 'Aunt Viv' until the show's final episode in 1996.
Shortly after Hubert's departure from the show in 1993, Smith told an Atlanta radio station: "I can say straight up that Janet Hubert wanted the show to be The Aunt Viv Of Bel-Air Show because I know she is going to dog me in the press.
"She has basically gone from a quarter of a million dollars a year to nothing. She’s mad now but she’s been mad all along," Smith added. "She said once: 'I've been in the business for 10 years and this snotty-nosed punk comes along and gets a show.'
"No matter what, to her I’m just the AntiChrist."

Now, during an emotional episode of Smith's family Facebook Watch series Red Table Talk, the 52-year-old actor has sat down with Hubert, 64, to reveal her side of the story.
Coming together in order to celebrate the show's 30th anniversary, Hubert said: "He was young, he was out of control in his own way, he had all this power.
"There was a need for me to have professionalism on the set, because I was used to it, especially as a dancer."
Smith then admitted that his behavior was unprofessional and said: "I wasn't perceptive and, ultimately, I wasn't kind."
Hubert confessed: "I would sit in my car some nights and not want to go anywhere. I didn't want to go home, I didn't want to go to work."
Speaking to Jet magazine back in 1993, Hubert revealed she had left the show over a "feud" with NBC network officials, which stemmed from a "vendetta" against her.
Speaking on the social media show on Friday, Hubert added: "The misconception of me was that I was haughty, difficult, wanted to be the star of the show."
Smith then admitted that the tension between the two stars led to show creators "reducing her role".
Hubert added: "As the oldest woman on that set, there's that respect level that I just needed to have of being an older woman, a Black woman.
"I had been banished and they said it was you who banished me, because I didn't laugh at your jokes. Then they ordered me to stay in my room, I couldn't come out on the stage. And I wasn't unprofessional on the set, I just stopped talking to everybody."

Speaking about the backlash she received as a result of their feud, Hubert said: "Black people beat my a**. They beat my son's a**. Somebody smashed a cookie in my son's face and said, 'Your mother is a b***h.'
"People send me hateful Instagrams, 'Aren't you dead yet?' 'I love Will, why don't you just die?' It was hard."
Smith then started to cry, but Hubert told him: "But you're the big star, I'm just a little Black b***h."
After taking a break from their conversation, Smith returned and admitted that their feud was "all way too far on my end".

The pair have now buried the hatchet, and following their conversation, Smith shared a picture of the two of them with his 50 million+ Instagram followers, along with the caption: "It was beautiful seeing YOU and more importantly hearing you. Thank you, Janet."

Following the episode airing, Hubert also tweeted, writing: " I am so thankful for all the love being shown and the understanding.
"Will and team let me participate in whatever I wanted and felt comfortable doing. After 27 years of disconnect we are all different people. It was great seeing everyone, life is too short!"
