Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Are Getting a Divorce. Except, Probably Not

Radar Online is the only outlet reporting on Will Smith and Jada Pinkett getting a divorce. Which means, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett likely aren’t getting a divorce.

Here’s the exact line from their report:

In a bombshell world exclusive, a well-placed insider close to the 49-year-old star and his wife squealed the two are already living separate lives and could file for a blockbuster $270 million Hollywood divorce if a planned round of last-ditch counseling doesn’t produce results.

BOMBSHELL WORLD EXCLUSIVE!

Given only to Radar, the least credible site in a world filled with fake news.

The Smiths have been subject to divorce rumors for years. Smith has been labeled as a cheater and some have said that they two have an open relationship. Both have always denied these claims. Now that the kids are out of the house, they have found it easier to split from each other.

Radar is taking this January 12 tweet as confirmation of the split:

My true happiness has never been found in forms of convention. The restrictions of convention make me feel too small to be happy.

— Jada Pinkett Smith (@jadapsmith) January 12, 2018

That tweet was three weeks ago. If they had split, don’t you think that a more reputable outlet would have found out in the last three weeks?

Radar’s report actually backtracks at the end of their post with the following paragraphs:

“After this relationship break, the plan is to spend some time in marriage counseling and figure out what they both want,” the source spilled.

“The way things are going, it looks like therapy could be their last hope.”

So, are they getting a divorce, are they taking a break, or are they working on their marriage through counseling? Make up your mind, report.

This is a classic example of giving yourself an out. If they do get a divorce, Radar can trumpet their report. If they end up staying together, they can point to the aforementioned quotes and say, “it looks like therapy worked.”

In conclusion, Will and Jada are just like any couple in a relationship. Except rich.
