Will Smith, 51, had done the same and has not given any statement either personally or through his representatives. In the message that Pinkett-Smith wrote she says:
“There’s some healing that needs to happen…so I’m bringing myself to The Red Table.”
SINGER'S STATEMENTS
During an interview with The Breakfast Club's Angela Yee, Alsina was promoting his new musical work. In the middle of the conversation with Yee, he began to give statements about his alleged romance with Pinkett-Smith.
Alsina explained that he and Smith had a conversation where the actor gave him permission to have a relationship with his wife. According to the singer, Pinkett-Smith and her husband discussed the state of their marriage and how they now related more as life partners.
After these remarks, Pinkett-Smith's representative issued a statement totally denying their veracity. Alsina and the Smith family met through Jaden Smith in 2016.
