Why I can’t divorce Will Smith – Jada Pinkett

Jada Pinkett Smith, the US actress, has explained why she cannot divorce Will Smith, her husband.
The couple have been in the news on several occasions for controversial reasons.
Recently, Jada revealed that she and her husband have been living separately since 2016.
In an interview with On Purpose podcast, Jay Shetty the podcast host, read a message from Smith celebrating ‘Worthy’, Jada’s newly released memoir.
In the message, Smith if he had read her book 30 years ago, he would have hugged her more.
He expressed his love for her and welcomed her to the ”authors club”.
Smith also suggested that she unwind with a glass of red wine to celebrate their achievement.
The host read, “I applaud and honour you. If I had read this book 30 years ago, I definitely would have hugged you more. I’ll start now. Welcome to the authors club. I love you endlessly. Now go get some Merlot and take a rest.”
Reacting to her husband’s kind words, the actress blushed and said Smith’s sense of humour is the reason she cannot divorce “that joker”.
“Hahaha. He knows I cannot have no Merlot. That is beautiful. That is why I cannot divorce that joker.”
In 2020, Will and Jada were in the spotlight over reports of Jada’s affair with August Alsina, the US rapper.
They also made the headlines in March after Smith slapped Chris Rock, the comedian, at the 2022 Oscars for making a joke about his wife’s shaved head.

Korra Obidi, the Nigerian dancer, has resumed her fight with Justin Dean, her ex-husband, for allegedly failing to pay child support.
In a now-viral video, Obidi accused Dean of not contributing financially to the care of their two children.
Obidi said she is struggling to shoulder the financial burden alone.
She also addressed criticism from people who have suggested that she should send her children to public school.
The entertainer said the “free” schools do not meet her standards.
She added that she had already chosen a relatively affordable school for her children.
“Health care, nothing, food, nothing, I am asking for nothing, all I am asking from you is for you to play your part because all on me is too much e go choke,” she said in a mixture of pidgin English.
“Athena is almost joining and imagining If I have to pay all of them together by only myself, this fight e no go fit end like that.
“And all the people saying free school, come to LA and look for free public school and see where your child would end up, not for my June and Athena.
“The place I put them is not the most expensive, there are more expensive ones.
“There is one that I wanted June to go to. If I was the only one paying for that one, by now I probably would be in the middle of the street dancing to pay for that one because it is not cheap.”
