During the interview, the actress revealed that Will Smith was the first monogamous relationship she had been in, adding that she never knew what it took to have a healthy relationship.

After being asked what advice she would give her children, she added that she would want them to have freedom, adding that a sense of responsibility should accompany it. She said:

" There was a time when black women were very uptight about their sexuality. I think right now we're going through a space where we're finding our freedom as far as our sexuality."
