The 'Magic Mike XXL' star admits it took her nearly five decades to finally feel contented and whilst it has been a long journey, she is grateful to have reached this point.
She said: "I'm 47-years-old and I want you to know that this is probably the first year of my life that I can say that I am happy. Because that's how long the journey's been."
And the actress has also opened up about her 22 year marriage to Will Smith, admitting there were "several occasions" where they nearly split.
Speaking on Monday's episode of 'Red Table Talk', she added: "There have been several occasions where you just had enough and you want to leave and I just couldn't. Or Will just couldn't. Because we knew this was what was meant to be - this partnership. No matter what the form is. We had to redefine it. We don't call ourselves married anymore. We're in a life partnership. Will has loved me through the worst of myself and I have done the same. When someone can love you in that way, it makes your faith in the world come together in the way which is like - I am, this is and all is well."
Jada previously admitted she doesn't think she'd be "mature enough" for a divorce.
She said: "For me personally, I'm not mature enough to have a divorce. I'm just not. I don't think I would ever be mature enough. I don't.
"Because when you have to start going in, breaking up assets, that right there ... let me tell you, that's when the red table turns upside down and it won't be red no more! This'll be smashed in shambles. You know what I'm saying?"
