Splitsville: The Divorce Thread

[sobe]

Their relationship seem to start off on a rocky note, though. Two weeks before the announced her pregnancy, he was making out with someone else at LAX. I think Jodie has said they had a one night stand that went on longer than expected. Not that those can’t grow into strong partnerships.

There were signs of trouble about a year or so ago, when they unfollowed each other on IG. It seems silly to pay attention to social media follows, but unfollowing your spouse is not the greatest sign. They did refollow and do a pap walk shortly after. The speculation is that their joint brand deal with j. Crew was a factor in them putting on a show of unity.

I guess I’ve always been underwhelmed by the internet’s JJ love. Pacey>Dawson, certainly, but I was always pretty “meh” on him as an actor.

Sobe, when Josh was seen with the girl at LAX, they weren’t together. Jodie had said a few weeks before that, that she was single. Their socials seemed to indicate this also. It was a brief breakup because they got back together three weeks later and she got pregnant later that month. They announced their marriage that December.

I wonder if they're also lockdown casualties. And they hadn't been married long before Covid hit, I don't think.

Jada Pinkett Smith "revealed" her and Will have been separated since 2016... ... ?

I mean, I felt their relationship was super odd and toxic... but they have been separated for 8 years? And they just decided today to say so? After going to the Oscars together, after her weird talk show confessional to Will and his super weird reaction, and all their declarations of staying together. They were separated that whole time. What?

That's what she is claiming though. She is also trying to sell a book. So... yeah. I honestly can't stand her.

Divorce pool odds: 3-2 within two years.

They're so ridiculous, honestly.

Don’t forget THE SLAP!

I have never been able to stand her.

[americanchai]

Never been able to stomach her.

She is someone who constantly seems to demand HONESTY and TRUTH and OWNING it. BUT...we been lying to everyone for the last seven years. Gaslighting much?

She did Red Table Talk with both her mom and daughter - did they know this whole time too? Whose truth are we talking about? I feel like whatever Jada says, everyone else has to take it as the gospel in that household. Or household(s)?

At this point, Will can only blame himself for letting this get this messy.

[ahah]

Am I the only one who thinks signs are showing that Jada wants the marriage to end, Will doesn't, and for some unknown reason, Will has the power to keep it from happening? Hear behavior and the way that she leaks out details comes across like she's trying to pressure him into throwing in the towel.

Maybe they had a prenup of some sort? Jada's had success as an actress, but Will was a global mega-star and there has to be an unequal financial footing. And being awful enough to hopefully convince the other person to just quit the marriage is hardly an unheard of strategy.
