Jada Pinkett Smith sent shockwaves through the internet yesterday when she confirmed August Alsina‘s claims of a romantic relationship.
Taking to her Red Table Talk platform on Facebook Watch, the actress was joined by husband Will Smith – and together they lifted the veil on what had been a family matter.
Join us below to for a summary of what was laid out and laid bare…
The Relationship DID happen
(August Was Not Lying)
Early in the video’s 12 minute runtime, Jada fesses up to having engaged in a romantic union with the R&B singer. But there was a caveat…
…The Relationship Occurred While She & Will Were Separated (And On The Brink Of Divorce)
While many received the initial story as a case of alleged infidelity, Jada and Will dispelled this by revealing that they were separated at the time. A frame simply billed as “four, five years ago.”
Will notably added “I was done with your a**” when unpacking how (unbeknownst to the public) their much-revered marriage was on the cusp of total collapse.
With this, the claim of Will giving “his blessing” was put down to a misinterpretation on August’s part.
Entanglement
Is Now The Year’s Go-To Catchphrase
For years, Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin had the distinct honor of birthing Hollywood’s most quotable term for a marriage mishap – with “conscious uncoupling.”
The Smiths snatched that baton when Jada referred to her relationship with August as an… “entanglement.”
Deliciously verbose, even Will chuckled and guided his wife to more directly define it as a romantic relationship. And even though she did, the masses have already taken and run with it. Entanglement is officially…a thing.
This Was Their First Time Addressing The Drama
From the onset of the episode, The Smiths made clear that this was the first time they’d spoken on the situation. They specifically mention that they have no idea where the statements from reps denying Jada’s relationship with August came from.
The Smiths Re-Affirmed Their Commitment To Each Other
Echoing the previously discussed evolution of their marriage into a “life partnership,” Will and Jada made clear that this remains their status today.
The episode ended with the couple fist-bumping and joking “bad marriage for life.” A playful reference to Will’s blockbuster ‘Bad Boys’ movie franchise, but also a ringing reminder that they aren’t going anywhere.

*************
Say what folk will about the matter, but there’s no denying Jada and Will handled that with seasoned finesse.
Olivia Pope-ing at its best, The Smiths all at once took control of the narrative and took accountability too. All without blemishing August in the process.
By approaching as such, they’ve arguably put the issue to bed. Or have they? What are…
That 💩 is called Acting…you, do know..they are swingers..unfortunately..you, can’t play with hearts..thats..why, this kid of a man, couldn’t hold it in, he, fail for Jada, now, they trying to fix this..Damage Control 😔😓
Smh August is fine and will continue to be blessed – he’s not even bitter about it smh 🤦🏽♀️ he even said out his mouth he can die knowing he loved her. Jada even stated it was him that “ghosted her” so he’s the one that ended their romance …so how tf she’s the villain here when there aren’t any at all 🤔

Cheater! Adultery! They should do it in ancient way, tied her up and stone her! Write the word “w-h-0-r-e” on her face and get naked walking toward downtown.

You are next! Better watch yo back. la chienne!
Girl PLEASE iight if that were the case the whole world might as well be handed to the Devil in a basket right now lol
You have to be a flop of all flops, to drop tea like this and your album still collects dust! Not even a bump in streams! Far too many people care about this than neccessary! If Will and Jada have an open relationship, I dont see how it affects anybody but them and their perspective families! August played himself in the end, all of this and it still didn’t help album sells! All these people hollering they are on his side but not where it counts!
Damn, will Smith looked like a LOSER thru out this interview . His soul looked crushed. He looked defeated.
He was okay with August bànging jaida as far as it didnt get out.
They were literally laughing thru the pain. Yhe clownery of it all
Will needs to go public with his man.
This is MY Hollywood royalty 🤳🏽 Thank you Jada and Will for bringing some much needed FLAVOR to TV and the silver screen! 😂 You are appreciated! I will turn OFF a movie or show quick FAST these days if it’s not doing ANYTHING for me…and you KNOW what I’m talking about 🤣 They blow whole BUDGETS keeping people of color off the screen! It really is ridiculous! The majority of these TV shows and movies are pure ass terrible lol…and I can name on like two hands TOPS the TV shows I can watch without one person of color in 2020..shout out to FRIENDS lol…and that’s because it’s masterpiece level and they do have flavor/chemistry! I don’t know WHEN I last saw a new movie I enjoyed that had no people of color 💯 It was definitely years ago 😂 And they also FORGET that we don’t like movies JUST because we see people of color 🤣 I might STOP to count the black and brown people, but like damn, can’t we have CHOICES of WHAT to watch by GENRE and interest too? Oh, you better see that movie cause that’s the last one you’re gonna get that’s good for a long time…it’s crazy! Thank God for the black classic movies and shows we do have cause if we didn’t? There wouldn’t be ANYTHING to really WATCH 💯 It’s sad! But chile, it’s whatever…cause if you’re not Streep, Cruise, Pacino, De Niro, DiCaprio, Dean, etc LEVEL or a director with STYLE, your all lily BLANCO movies aren’t getting watched and REWATCHED, downloaded or purchased or even THOUGHT about by me ANYWAY 🤣 I’m so particular with MY ISH and save so much money lol…you’re not taking up space in MY world, on my shelf, in my house or on my table if you don’t BRING IT *Gabrielle Union voice* 😂 You better knock it out the park…don’t skimp now lol…snooze fest on Oscar night too…the best sleep of my life and my money is still secure and crispy 👀 🤣 🤳🏽
Another long A-s-s- boring essay from this nasty bish. U just want attention like Jada. FOH. Please admit you are The one & only Jasmine, trashmine & TROLLMINE. I can see your psycho demonic pattern. Exposed!!! TGJ denied your application😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
You can’t take the fact I’m smarter than you 😂 Why is it always you? Baby, the only thing boring is you…you never bring anything but chaos to this comment section…get it together! I said what I said and will continue to be ME…you obviously can’t STAND being you 🤣 You don’t know what to say cause you’re so stupid 😂 Get some education and counseling cause the way you carry on is so pathetic! 🤳🏽 You’ve been exposed and instead of changing, you’re just projecting lol…you’re so easy Clarkson 🤣 Simple, low hanging fruit ass!
“While many received the initial story as a case of alleged infidelity, Jada and Will dispelled this by revealing that they were separated at the time.” Don’t misconstrue things. Will did not give permission, according to he and Jada, and there were lines that should not have been crossed, which is why Will used the word “transgression” and why Jada understood Will’s desire to get her back for letting the whole situation happen. Jada said in 2013 that they do NOT have an open relationship. There’s an understanding between them that this should not have happened–infidelity.
Gurl, u are delusional,
The last time will Smith was intimate with jada was the night willow was conceived back in 2000
What does THAT have to do with what I said? Get your life 😂🤳🏽
Chile 🤣 I swear I thought you were under my long ass comment 😂 My bad lol

Is everyone forgetting about how a week ago they BOTH denied the claims?
Like, they literally lied to the public.
In all fairness, they said in the video that anything claiming to be a statement from them was not actually coming from them.
This person clearly didn’t watch the entire video 🙄 despite that being stated early before they got further into details
The only takeaway is she and Will are 🤡’s. Maybe they’re doing promo for Katy’s new album
Life partnership a.k.a. mutually beneficial financial arrangement
