Some of the biggest criticisms Will and Jada Pinkett Smith continue to be hit with are the rumors that they have an open marriage and the other being that they pimp their kids Willow and Jaden to maintain their wealthy lifestyle. Will and Jada don’t seem to be too worried about the constant rumors and speculation, but Jada did open up and address the rumors suggesting that the marriage she has with Will is an open one. She denied the claims all together in her interview with HuffPost Live, however, many news outlets took her words as confirmation that the marriage isn’t a monogamous one. Jada recently called into The Don Geronimo Show and opened up about trusting Will and also why she feels her kids Willow and Jaden won’t end up like the typical, spoiled and troubled Hollywood kids.
When it comes to her marriage, Jada claims she’s not giving Will a pass to be unfaithful, but she believes it’s essential that she trusts her husband to do the right thing. Jada says:
“It’s all about trust. You have to be with someone that you trust. And to trust someone’s character. And that’s what it’s about. At the end of the day, when you’re in a marriage and a long term relationship, if you don’t have trust, you don’t have anything.”
Although there are rumors suggesting Will and Jada are pimping their kids, Jada says that’s not the case and her kids won’t fall victim to Hollywood because they don’t have to work and pay bills. Simply put, they work because they want to, and when they want to:
“I think the difference is my kids are allowed to still be children. They don’t have to work because they are not paying any bills. Just like Willow decided she’s not doing Annie. She does’t want to do Annie. So now she’s going to step out for a little while. Jaden on the other hand is really enjoying everything that’s happening right now. I think the balance stays in when you allow kids to be creative and do things that they want to do and flourish but they don’t have to take on adult responsibilities like paying bills.”
Yes Jada! Love this family!
Makes sense. Jada and Willow seem to have their own way of raising kids, it’s going to be interesting to see what kind of adults Willow and Jaden turn out to be.
Well as long as the kids are doing things when they want to and aren’t being forced to, they should be fine.
We will see…lol
I just want to know why these kids aren’t ever in school?!
Exactly.
LOL!
No one will really know if Jada and Will are good parents until the kids are grown. So for now, I don’t think people can really judge because the most they do is wear weird clothes and hairstyles…typical young teenage stuff.
I agree. I don’t get fuss or backlash these kids get. I will say I’d love to hear more about them going to school or being tutored. Yeah, they have talent but they need to have smarts too.
Sounds like Jada and Will have it figured out. I hope it all works out for them. I do want Willow and Jaden to prove their naysayers wrong.
These kids will be screwed up when they grow up. Will and Jada need to sit down somewhere with their Scientology beliefs. Children are not adults and should not be treated as adults! They will see one day that they had this all wrong.
