It seems like the drama surrounding Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith’s separation is taking its toll on their children, Jaden Smith and Willow Smith. The two young adults reportedly “feel bad” for their father as the public is witnessing their family’s private matters unfold.
Despite initial reports suggesting that Jaden and Willow were relieved to no longer keep their parents’ separation a secret, a recent report indicates that they are actually concerned about their father’s well-being. Jada Pinkett Smith has been making shocking revelations in her upcoming memoir, “Worthy,” and her children seem to be unhappy about the public airing of their family’s dirty laundry.
“They know he has been going through a lot lately and this isn’t helping,” revealed an insider to Entertainment Tonight. “They wish some of their family’s private matters remained private.” The source added that Will Smith has been trying to stay busy and surround himself with good friends and his kids to cope with the media scrutiny surrounding his marriage.
The insider further shared, “He’s trying not to let any outside noise impact him. Will loves Jada and feels like he has always had her back and always will. He has been trying to be supportive, while also taking care of himself.”
Will and Jada Pinkett Smith have been married for over two decades, but they are still navigating their relationship. In a recent interview with People magazine, Jada mentioned that they are “figuring it out.” She explained, “We’ve been doing some really heavy-duty work together. We just got a deep love for each other, and we are going to figure out what that looks like for us.”
During an interview on the “Today” show, Jada expressed the possibility of reconciliation despite the years they have spent apart. “There’s no finding another great love, and I think that’s the point. It’s like we are in a place now that we are in a deep, healing space. And we are really concentrating on healing the relationship between us,” Jada said.
The recent revelations from Jada’s memoir seem to have taken a toll on Willow and Jaden. According to the Daily Mail, the siblings were “extremely agitated” about keeping their parents’ relationship a secret in the media. They are now relieved that the truth is finally out, as it allows everyone to move forward.
“They all want everyone to be true to themselves and not hold any more grudges or secrets,” the source mentioned. “Jaden and Willow hope that everyone can now heal and remove any drama that still might be in their worlds now that all the revelations have come out.”
However, the situation has put Willow in an uncomfortable position. She has always been close to her mother but is frustrated by the amount of private information being shared with the public. The insider revealed that this constant exposure made the siblings agitated and led to fights between them.
Despite the challenges, the Smith children support their father and want their family to come together. They hope that people can trust their mother in the future and are determined to overcome the negativity surrounding them. Willow, in particular, holds animosity towards Will and sides with her mother during arguments.
In the end, the Smith family is dealing with their own share of struggles, but they are working towards healing their relationships and coming back together as a strong unit.
