Will & Jada Smith Divorce? Jada Rep Says 'Lord I'm Going Back to Bed'
In Touch Weekly has reported Tuesday that Will and Jada-Pinkett Smith have separated after 13 years of marriage.
The magazine claimed that an inside source revealed the split in an exclusive In Touch interview. Since the report was published, rumors of the break-up have gone viral.
TMZ News placed a call to Jada’s rep, Karynne Tencer who said, “What? In Touch said that? I know nothing about this ... Lord. I'm going back to bed."
RadarOnline.com also has reported that a family member said the news of a separation are not true. The unidentified family member said, “They’re happy and married still.”
Will Smith has publicly spoken out against divorce, which is why these rumors come as such a shock. He appeared on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show,” in 2008 and said, "What I found is divorce just can't be an option.
"It's really that simple. And I think that's the problem with L.A. – there are so many options. So a huge part of the success for [Jada] and I is that we just removed the other options."
He added, "We're like listen, we're going to be together one way or the other so we might as well try to be happy.”
Twitter has been buzzing with fan response Tuesday in light of the divorce rumors.
@QuentinMcCall tweeted, "Best thing u [sic] can do if you support Will and Jada is pray for them..."
"If Will and Jada can't make it, NOBODY CAN." @RightOn_Q_ wrote on Twitter.
@JNR80 said, "Will and Jada Smith split up!! I feel like crying, if they can't stay together there's no hope for anyone :("
The couple met on the set of Smith’s show, “The Fresh Prince of Bel Air,” and was married in 1997. Will and Jada have two children together: daughter Willow, who is a singer and actress, and son Jaden, a songwriter, rapper, actor, and dancer.
