Will Smith and his wife of 13 years, Jada Pinkett Smith, are NOT splitting up, despite what In Touch Weekly reports.
The couple released a statement after dominating blog and Twitter chatter today.
“Although we are reluctant to respond to these types of press reports, the rumors circulating about our relationship are completely false,” they said in a statement posted on People’s web site. “We are still together, and our marriage is intact.”
Earlier the actor’s son Trey Smith tweeted in response to the magazine’s touted intel from an inside source. In Touch gave few details on its web site, other than urging people to buy the magazine.
But Trey Smith’s Twitter feed was emphatic: “No they did NOT split ! False information ..it’s not true RETWEET!” followed by “Everyone can think what they want ..even if it’s not true. #Lame” And so on.
Radar Online posted a report disputing the Splitsville rumor earlier in the day. It quotes another secret source saying the first one had it all wrong. Here’s that story.
TMZ, never one to shy away from celeb scoop, posted the greatest publicist denial ever, quoting Jada Smith’s rep, Karynne Tencer, thusly:
“What? In Touch said that? I know nothing about this … Lord. I’m going back to bed.”
The Smiths’ children include young stars Jaden Smith (”The Karate Kid” remake) and Willow Smith (”Whip My Hair.”) They were just named to this list of “10 celeb couples with a balanced lifestyle.”

This is really strange. I just had a premonition last week, that Jada and Will were splitting up.
They have been real quiet and not in the celeb limelight lately. Hope the kids will be okay.

I agree with “Who Cares”…If you recall, Jada hung around the Fresh Prince set while he was married to someone else. The same way you get him is the same way you lose him……..Never cared much for them anyway!!!!!!

Well, that’s interesting. JLo and Marc split up…Marc working with Jada on TV series….now “rumors” of Jada and Will splitting. Hm…me thinks maybe she doth protest too much (or in this case too little). One can’t help but wonder. It is “show” business after all.

Oh well, the partnership was good while it lasted. I know all about marriages of convenience. Michele and I are happy for now. Jada was a good beard and Will let her hang with the girls every now and then. They can now step out and be true to themselves. That Will sure is handsome.

@Vote for Obama cause he’s black, your name is dumb and inaccurate…he’s bi-racial. Oh, the racist folks can’t leave their racists comments out of any blog! Get a life! And the by the way, I’m under 50 and very happily married.
Time will tell if this is true. If it is, I am sure they will do what is best for their family. It’s really nobodys business.

@vote for Obama because He’s black first off Obama is bi racial 2nd I am under 50 and happily married to the same woman for 26 years and for the record I think that the story saying Will and his wife are splitting up is just tabloid gossip not fact.

@Vote for Obama cause he’s black — First off, I wouldn’t vote for him regardless of race, but he isn’t black. Secondly, in my 30’s and have had a very happy marriage for the past 10 years.

WHAT. Are they really splitting up? Could the reason be the show HAWTHORNE which actor Marc Anthony has a part? Is Jada leaving Will for Marc Anthony? I hope this isn’t true but if it is may they separate peacfully for the children sake and continue to be friends. May GOD bless all of you.

According to In Touch Weekly, Hollywood super couple Will and Jada-Smith have announced their intent to separate after 13 years of marriage and two children together. This rumor should be taken with a grain of salt because In Touch Weekly is losing credibility with outrageous rumors in the past which turned out to be wrong.
But tongues are still wagging. And rumor has it that today’s bombshell report (IF true) was probably brought on by the fact that one of their alleged sexual partners has decided to come forward with salacious details of their rumored sexual orgies over the years.
Rumors have circulated around the industry for years about the couple’s taste for threesomes and foursomes. Rumors have abounded about Will Smith’s alleged proclivity for intimacy with industry males.
Additionally, it has been rumored (and confirmed by at least one Atlanta socialite) that Jada allegedly prefers LSLH, or exotic looking industry females, and that she allegedly sends her people (more specifically, her hair stylist) to fetch her these professional industry women who might have something to lose if they should spill the beans to the media or blogs.

I can’t imagine Will settling on an old dried up woman. He needs some young thing to make it work. Time for him to hit the clubs and make it rain.
