The Oscars Incident and Its Aftermath
Pinkett Smith also opened up about the infamous Oscars slap incident in 2022, where Will Smith slapped Chris Rock. She revealed her surprise at Will referring to her as his “wife” during the altercation, as the couple had not used those terms for some time.
“I’m really shocked, because mind you, I’m not there [in our relationship],” Pinkett Smith recalled during an NBC News special in October 2023. “We haven’t called each other husband and wife in a long time… I’m really worried for Will.”

Despite the rocky moments in their relationship, Pinkett Smith has expressed a commitment to staying together.
