Jada Pinkett Smith has finally spoken about the shocking moment her husband, Will Smith, slapped the comedian Chris Rock at the Oscars, saying she hopes that “these two intelligent, capable men have an opportunity to heal, talk this out, and reconcile”.
Smith slapped Rock on stage in March after the comedian joked, “Jada, I love you.
You’re going through a spell of something, and [you’ve] got to shave your head,” Pinkett Smith said.
Pinkett Smith had only briefly addressed the slap previously, writing on Instagram the day after, “This is a season for healing and I’m here for it”.
