Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith spent Thanksgiving together
The 56-year-old actor and 'The Nutty Professor' star Jada, 53, announced in late 2023 that they had gone their separate ways years earlier but now it has been claimed that they spent the November holiday watching football with their family.
A source told People: "Everyone was in wonderful and very grateful spirits. Jada and Will's celebration kept going, as it then carried on to Sunday when their hometowns squared off in the big game, when the Philadelphia Eagles played the Baltimore Ravens.
"And Will's team won — which he didn't let anyone forget!"
The former couple - who tied the knot in 1997 and went on to have Jaden, 26, as well as 24-year-old Willow together - were both active on their social media on the big day.
Jada took to Instagram where she claimed she was "grateful" as she gave an update to her millions of followers.
Speaking in a video, she said: "Happy day of thanks and gratitude. I’m sending you all so much love."
Meanwhile, Will joked that it had been a "sensitive situation" within the family as their opposing teams Philadelphia Eagles and the Baltimore Ravens went head-to-head for the big game.
Despite announcing they had separated in 2016, neither Will nor Jada intend to actually divorce.
Speaking on 'The Today Show', Jada explained "It was not a divorce on paper, but it was a divorce."
Jada and Will kept their unusual dynamic a secret for years.
Asked why they chose to adopt this lifestyle, Jada replied: "I think just not being ready yet. Still trying to figure out between the two of us how to be in a partnership, and in regards to how do we present that to people, you know? And we hadn't figured that out."
Jada also explained they they both felt "exhausted" by their efforts to make their romance work.
She said: "I think by the time we got to 2016, we were just exhausted with trying. I think we were both kind of just still stuck in our fantasy of what we thought the other person should be."
