The public is not easily deceived. See you soon Jada”, “Whatever decisions Will and Jada make in their marriage is their own business.

 It’s disgusting”, “She needs to take Smith out of her name and go back to Jada Pinkett”, “Lies. 

Are you going to tell us that Will sabotaged his career over someone he’s no longer with?, “Jada was just trying to sell books. 

Why after 7 years of so much drama between them and now tell us they’re not even together. It’s boring and annoying”, “Jada needs to stop embarrassing Will at this point”, “Jada constantly publicly embarrasses that man”, “This woman doesn’t deserve Will . 

She always throws him under the bus so everyone can make fun of him”, “She ruined this man”…
