They sure had us fooled.

Here is more on the power couple’s separation.

The couple married in 1997, so it has been almost 20 years of companionship before they decided to separate.

According to Pinkett Smith, they have lived “completely separate lives” since 2016.

If you want more juicy details about Smith and Pinkett Smith’s intimate lives and how their relationship will continue to unfold in the future, get ready for some intense reading.

Pinkett Smith is releasing a memoir on 17 October 2023, which will touch on these touchy relationship topics.

They Are Still Legally Married

While the couple may be separated and live their own independent lives, they are still legally married as they did not get divorced on paper.

Pinkett Smith said they had not been “ready” to go through with the divorce in the exclusive interview with NBC News.

We wonder if they ripped up their marriage papers, though.

Not that it changes the fact that they are still married to each other after their “I do” once upon a time.

In fact, Pinkett Smith still uses “Smith” in her name—a surname which came from her husband.

Will They Continue to Stay Married in the Future?

While the couple may have called it quits in their hearts (but not on paper), they still seem close enough.

Well, close enough that they will stand up for each other if the other is publicly humiliated.

Remember Smith slapping Chris Rock at the 94th Academy Awards in 2022, which shocked audiences and celebrities alike?

Rock had briefly made a “joke” about Pinkett Smith’s hairstyle, saying that she shaved her head since 2021 due to alopecia areata.

For those who are not aware, alopecia areta is a type of medical condition which causes baldness.

And for the record, Pinkett Smith is known for sporting a buzz cut, which looks fabulous on her.
