Jada Pinkett Smith discussed how a “crazy” magic trick made her feel incredibly connected to the father of her two kids!

Have you ever found yourself entangled in an endless web of love with your significant other? Well, Jada Pinkett Smith confessed that she felt so when renowned illusionist David Blaine pulled off a mind-boggling magic trick that made her feel deeply connected to her husband, Will Smith.

This couple, arguably one of the most talked-about couples in Tinseltown, has been the subject of a slew of speculation about their relationship. We can’t deny that love is a magical and complicated thing, and sometimes the most committed of relationships require a little extra spark. In their case, an encounter with Blaine rekindled the fire in their turbulent marriage.

Pinkett Smith, 52, recently admitted to getting “emotional” as a result of a magic trick done on her and the Men in Black actor.

How Was Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith’s Marriage Revived by a ‘Magic Trick’?

Love can sometimes be intangible, working in ways that are difficult to comprehend. It has been more than twenty years since Will and Jada Pinkett Smith began dating. The pair first got together in the early 1990s and later tied the knot in Baltimore, Maryland, in December 1997.

Even though they have grown to be a powerful couple in Hollywood, they have never hesitated to talk about the highs and lows of their marriage. In an interview with Off Menu Podcast (via Daily Mail), Pinkett Smith talked about the moment she was moved to tears by a magic trick performed by renowned illusionist David Blaine:

“[Blaine] did something so crazy with Will and I, she began during her appearance on the. He touched Will’s shoulder and I felt it but Will didn’t.”

The mother of two claimed that she felt a strong connection to Smith as a result of their encounter with Blaine:

“I cried, it was emotional. Blaine was showing the connection between us and I haven’t been able to get away from Will since showing that connection.”

She further quipped:

“Like, blame it on David, we are really connected.”

Despite not disclosing the exact time of the incident, the Red Table Talk host continued, calling it a “crazy experience” and adding that she “does not mess” with Blaine, calling him “otherworldly”.

Their ‘open marriage’ has suffered tremendously, and since 2016, they have even lived apart with no plans to get a formal divorce. Perhaps a seemingly simple magic trick will act as a catalyst to rekindle and strengthen their relationship.

Will & Jada Pinkett Smith Have Been Separated Since 2016

Ahead of the publication of her memoir Worthy, Jada Pinkett Smith disclosed to Today’s Hoda Kotb that she and Will Smith had been leading separate lives since 2016. She clarified that her split from her husband was not “a divorce on paper”, as Kotb put it, but rather that

“By the time we got to 2016, we were just exhausted with trying.”

The Set It Off actress also said she

“Made a promise that there will never be a reason for us to get a divorce. We will work through … whatever. I just haven’t been able to break that promise.”

The Worthy author provided more details about her marriage in an interview with PEOPLE, saying,

“We are still figuring it out. We’ve been doing some really heavy-duty work together. We just got deep love for each other and we are going to figure out what that looks like for us.”

While giving few details about their current circumstances, Pinkett Smith told the Daily Mail earlier this month that her husband’s shocking Oscars slap had saved their marriage:

“After all those years trying to figure out if I would leave Will’s side, it took that slap for me to see I will never leave him. Who knows where our relationship would be if that hadn’t happened?”

Well, her enticing and heartwarming encounter with magic during David Blaine’s performance provided her with a glimpse into the hidden bonds that still exist between her and Will Smith. And we hope that this magic will keep the flame of love alive between them.
