    He was willing to throw his career away for a woman he’s been technically separated from for years. I just don’t get it…

      “Doing it for the kids” he says to himself while she goes around and probably has sex with other people behind his back. Like I think we’re all at the point where nobody would fault Will Smith for divorcing Jada pinkett and moving on.

        Nobody - except Scientology.

        I’m convinced she uses their kids as leverage over him. If he left, the kids could be squirrelled away by the church and he might never see them again.

        I don’t think anything she does is behind his back, I think he’s fully aware of it. I’m not saying he agrees with it or anything, just that their relationship is pretty fucked but their reasons for staying together is between them.

          I don’t actually know, but I get the feeling a lot of Hollywood marriages would be unrecognizable to me behind closed doors. Rich, attractive people tend to play by different rules.

          At the end of the day, they can choose to live how they want. All while being scrutinized by the media. The price of fame, I suppose.

      It’s all about maintaining his image as a family man. I’ve read articles about their relationship and from what It strikes me as a very unhealthy relationship.

        I really don’t think it’s just to maintain an image. I don’t know him personally, but relationships get weird. Maybe he hasn’t divorced her because he is in a catch 22 with the property, their friends or his children. Maybe he still loves her. Maybe he loves the idea of her. Maybe he does it because she won’t take it well. There could be a million reasons. However, will does not strike me as a cold hearted business man. He might know his way around the actor scene but this ain’t it.

      He mentions in his book that he always felt like he couldn’t protect people around him. I don’t condone his actions but clearly he has some shit to work out with a therapist.
