In 2022, the Oscar slap was the talk of the town, as it was discovered that Will Smith was angered by Chris Rock’s impolite jokes about his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith. However, in an interview with Today, Jada said that the slap incident may have been the result of a romantic feud.

Jada Pinkett Says Chris Rock Asked Her Out

Jada Pinkett Smith has revealed that Chris Rock had asked her out on a date while she was still married to Will Smith.  Jada told People that when Chris shared his dream with her, she reminded him that she was still married to Will.

“I think every summer all the reports would come out that me and Will were getting a divorce,” Jada told People. And this summer, Chris, he assumed we were getting divorced.

And this summer, Chris, he assumed that we were getting divorced. So he called and said, basically, ‘I’d love to take you out.’ ‘What do you mean?’ I wondered. ‘Well, aren’t you and Will getting a divorce?’ he said. ‘No,’ I said.

The incident certainly occurred prior to the iconic Oscar slap incident. In her interview, Jada also revealed further information about the incident and acknowledged that she hasn’t spoken to Chris since.

After The Oscar Slap Incident, Chris Rock Apologised To Jada.

Jada Pinkett Smith dropped the beans on the infamous 2022 Oscar slap, and the motive may be very different than what we’ve previously assumed.

Will Smith, Jada’s husband, rushed up to the stage at the Oscars 2022 and slapped presenter Chris Rock for commenting on Jada’s buzz cut. Jada is afflicted with alopecia. Chris, she said, came downstage after the incident to speak with her.

“Chris came down to the stage’s edge and apologised to me. ‘I didn’t mean any harm,’ he claimed. ‘I can’t talk about this right now, Chris,’ I said. ‘This is some s—.’ I assumed this was about the Oscars in 2016 and… their stuff from before I ever got into the picture in the late ’80s. ‘I’ll leave it up to Will and Chris, but I know they’ve got their own stuff,’ she said.

Will Smith And Jada Pinkett Have Been Unofficially Divorced For Past Seven Years

Jada Pinkett Smith’s interview didn’t end with Chris Rock asking her out on a date. She also revealed that Will Smith and her marriage have struck rock bottom, and the couple has been living different lifestyles for the past 7 years. The couple lives apart and is not legally divorced, but their marriage is over.

Jada Pinkett Smith claimed that their marriage had been troubled for a long time, but by 2016, they were simply exhausted of trying to address their problems.

She went on to say that by that point, the two had left their imagined country and recognised each other for who they truly were, and the reality wasn’t quite ideal. Jada went on to say: “I think we were each kind of stuck in our fantasies about what the other should be,”
