Will Smith is in the eye of a storm, vehemently denying scandalous rumors that he engaged in a steamy affair with none other than his Fresh Prince co-star, Duane Martin.
Smith’s ex-personal assistant, Brother Bilaal, spilled the jaw-dropping beans during an explosive interview with internet sensation Tasha K. According to Bilaal, he allegedly walked in on a shocking rendezvous between Smith and Martin.
“I opened the door to Duane’s dressing room and that’s when I see Duane having a*** s** with Will,” Bilaal claims.
“There was a couch and Will was bent over on the couch and Duane was standing up killing him, murdering him – it was murder in there.”
In a plot twist of its own, Smith’s spokesperson fired back, telling TMZ that the whole story is nothing more than a “completely fabricated” tale.
Rumor has it that the Men in Black star is contemplating legal action to shut down the scandalous whispers once and for all.
While Smith and his team are gearing up for a legal showdown, Martin has yet to break his silence on the salacious allegations.
But wait, there’s more! As if the alleged affair isn’t enough to send shockwaves through Hollywood, it turns out that Smith and his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, have been leading a secret separated life for seven years!
The bombshell was dropped by none other than Jada herself, who spilled the beans on their relationship woes during a candid moment on the Red Table Talk.
According to Jada, the tension between the power couple hit its peak on the night Smith slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars.
Shockingly, that was the first time in years that Smith referred to Jada as his ‘wife.’
Bilaal, the man behind the explosive claims, reveals more titillating details about Smith’s private life. He alleges that he was instructed to keep a watchful eye on Will, claiming, “I saw s**ual acts – there was one I walked in on.”
Adding fuel to the fire, Bilaal dishes on Smith’s relationship with Jada, calling her ‘the woman that everybody wanted.’ According to Bilaal, Will needed that validation to have a woman of her caliber. Could this be the real behind-the-scenes drama we’ve all been missing?
Jada Pinkett Smith Says She’ll ‘Never’ Divorce Will Smith Despite Being Separated For Seven Years
Despite being separated for seven years, Jada Pinkett Smith has stated that she has no intentions of divorcing Will Smith. This revelation, which surprised the showbiz world, comes more than two decades after their wedding in 1997. The news coincides with the upcoming release of Jada’s new book, “Worthy,” which is set to debut next week.
Jada opened up about her first encounter with Will in Hollywood, sharing the story of their initial interaction. After Will split from his first wife, Sheree Zampino, he called Jada and inquired, “Who are you going out with?” Upon learning she was single, he boldly declared, “Well, you’re going out with me now.” Jada, reflecting on that moment, said, “Can you believe I fell for that? Will called me up one day and said, ‘Hit me when you get to L.A.,’ and then… click. And I was like, ‘Whoa. Okay.’ And so when I got to L.A., I called him. I haven’t been able to get rid of him since.”
Regarding their relationship’s current status, Jada shared, “We’re still figuring it out. We’ve been doing some really heavy-duty work together. We just have deep love for each other, and we are going to figure out what that looks like for us.” Jada also expressed the support of her children, Jaden and Willow, as well as Trey, whom Will shares with Zampino. She highlighted the deep sense of self-acceptance her children have taught her and the unconditional love they have for both her and their dad.
Even though they’ve been separated for years, Jada made it clear that she will “never divorce” Will. She explained in an interview with Hoda Kotb on the Today show that they faced challenges in their marriage, leading to their separation in 2016. However, despite considering divorce, Jada was determined to never break the promise she made to Will that there would never be a reason for them to divorce. She stated firmly, “We will work through whatever. And I just haven’t been able to break that promise.”
The full interview with Jada can be seen on NBC on Friday, October 13, at 8 pm ET.

A talented family includes Will Smith, his wife Jada Pinkett Smith, and their two kids, Jaden and Willow.
The famous family has delighted admirers in music, movies, social media, and television for almost 20 years; we feel as though we know practically everything about them.
However, even though it was crystal clear to some of us, it has taken this long for people to figure out why Jaden and Willow are known by their given names.
But as I said, it becomes painfully clear once it is brought to light.
Yes, some Twitter users are just now realising that Jaden and Willow’s names are actually a combination of their parents’ names.
Jaden receives his name from his mother’s name Jada, and Willow from her father’s name Will.
“I was today years old when I realized that Will Smith and Jada named their kids the opposite sex versions of their names and my mind is blown. Will-Willow, Jada-Jaden,” one astonished fan wrote.
A second Twitter user wrote: “I was today years old when I realized jaden and willow smith’s names are just their parents names in different forms???? Goodbye. [sic]”
“I’m absolutely mindblown by the fact that I just now have realized that willow and jaden smith are named slightly after their parents will and jada [sic],” a third tweeted.
Jaden Smith is a rapper and actor whose career took off after he appeared in The Pursuit of Happyness (2006) with his father Will.
He has given up acting and is now focusing on music. His third studio album, CTV3: Cool Tape Vol.3, released in 2020.
While sister Willow is also an actress, she is likely most known for her work as a musician. Willow also had early success internationally with her song “Whip My Hair,” whose debut single achieved platinum status in the US. Coping Mechanism, Willow’s most recent studio album, was published in October 2022.
When it comes to discussing how they choose to express themselves and how gender standards are evolving, both siblings are very candid.
According to Popsugar, Willow admitted she could picture herself dating both genders together in a polyamorous relationship during an episode of her mother’s Facebook talk programme Red Table Talk.
Jaden Smith has also experimented with gender-fluid style, showing up in a skirt in a 2016 Louis Vuitton womenswear campaign.
He has also released his own non-binary fashion line, MSFTSrep.
When talking about her children, Pinkett Smith admitted on Red Table Talk, per PEOPLE: “Everything is changing but it is beautiful. But I must say, it’s taking some getting used to.
“Jaden and Willow have always been different. They were born that way.”
And now that we know, we can say with certainty that they were named after both of their parents and were born in their honour.
