In the photo, Xen and Ezekiel Martin looked like they were in the interior of a bar as Xen, 18, rocked a dapper tuxedo outfit while Ezekiel's white shirt looked impeccable.

It turned out that Martin borrowed money from star actor Will Smith when he ran bankrupt. This automatically meant that Smith would have a share after the family's home was sold.

Big brother Xen sweetly rested his head close to his younger brother, and Ezekiel happily leaned in as he enjoyed his sibling's comfort. Their devoted dad was emotional in his caption, where he talked about experiencing the same sweet moments with his own siblings:

"I have many moments like this between them. I have seen this before with my two brothers and sisters growing up…"

According to her, the medical condition was not well addressed in black and Hispanic communities. The star actors were able to pull together for their kids, but after a long time of marriage, they decided to call it quits.

In an exclusive chat with Madame Noire, the "Rags to Riches" actress referred to her divorce situation as "beautiful devastation." At the time, Campbell admitted that she was scared of being single, but she'll go through with it.

Madame Noire further shares that while "The Inkwell" actor and his estranged spouse were able to agree on co-parenting their sons, the two were at loggerheads over property.

It turned out that Martin borrowed money from star actor Will Smith when he ran bankrupt. This automatically meant that Smith would have a share after the family's home was sold, and Campbell was against this.
