The 'Magic Mike XXL' star lamented the difficulty of seeing so many marriages "dissolve around her" as she celebrated her own family - her husband Will Smith, her step-son Trey, her son Jaden and daughter Willow.
She wrote on Instagram: "I've been watching a lot marriages dissolve around me. It's been really painful. Marriages change. Sometimes they need to be reimagined and transformed. Sometimes they are simply over ... but either way, I pray that folks going thru this painful transition find the patience and the love within to not throw the "babies" out with the bath water. #family (sic)"
Meanwhile, Jada previously insisted that, despite the rumours, her and Will are not even remotely close to ever calling it quits.
She said: "I'm just, like, keep [the divorce rumours] coming. Here's the thing about Will and I - [we] are family. That is never going down. It's just not. Ever. We are family. Take out all that whole marriage/relationship crap, at the end of the day, Will and I are family. I am going to hold him down, doesn't matter. All that relationship and what people think ideas of a husband, partner and all that, man, whatever. At the end of the day, that is a man that can rely on me for the rest of his life, period ...
"We have a very, very, very, unique partnership. And it's really great because when you get to a place where you can love someone and allow them to be exactly who they are ... through my journey, [I have] learned to love him in the most pure way and love everything that comes with that and he's learning to do the same."
