Reacting strongly to the rumors that he and his wife of 18 years, Jada Pinkett Smith, are about to part ways and heading for divorce, "Suicide Squad" star Will Smith took to Facebook to express his strong disgust over the baseless reports.
"So, in the interest of redundant, repetitious, over & over-again-ness... Jada and I are...NOT GETTING A DIVORCE," wrote the 46-year-old actor, before adding that he will declare himself if ever he decides to part ways with his wife.
The actor's recent declaration has put the rumors to rest, according to which the couple's marriage is on the rocks and they have already started the paperwork for the impending divorce. The couple has apparently signed a secret deal to divide their $240 million fortune to ensure a hassle-free and peaceful parting, Radar Online reported.
The publication further reported that Will and Jada Pinkett were pretending to be a happy and content couple from past many years, but now they have decided to move on. It was also reported that they are planning to break the big news by the end of this summer.
Will's recent declaration is backed by the "The Matrix Reloaded" actress who took to Twitter to show her support. She tweeted, "My king has spoken."
This is not the first time that Will and Jada Pinkett, who got married in 1997, became the target of tabloids' baseless fabricated stories. The couple, who has two children together, has been plagued by rumors of an impending breakup for years. Not only break-up forecasts, the couple has also been rumored to be in an open marriage.
"I've heard all the things-their marriage is not real, he's gay, she's gay, they swing," said the 43-year-old actress during a radio interview back in 2009 to clear the air around the status of their marital relationship, Us Weekly reported.
