Their marriage, which began in 1997, has seen its fair share of drama. However, none of that comes close to what the couple has experienced since the publication of Jada’s book “Worthy.”

“I knew at that moment that I would not leave his side and I knew then that I was not going to the theater as his wife but I was going to be his wife and I was going to stand by his side. whatever happens. And that’s when I knew. I was like ‘I love this guy.’”
The 52-year-old opened up about realizing the depth of his love for her and the process it took him to dismantle idealized notions of marriage and accept the reality of their union.
Jada ultimately chose to see “Will in a new light” and explained that she coined the term “life partner” to describe their unique bond but emphasized, “He’s my friend. He’s my right hand.”
The Daytime Emmy Award winner finally decided that divorce was not in the cards for them after moving from a romantic fantasy to a deeper, more grounded relationship.
The television host echoed this on Jay Shetty’s podcast when he read a heartfelt note from Smith to his partner, expressing deep gratitude for his honesty in his memoir. During a pause taken to acknowledge the message, the “Set It Off” star playfully responded to her husband’s suggestion, saying:
“He knows I can’t have Merlot. That’s beautiful. That’s why I can’t divorce the comedian.”
