Last year, Jada Pinkett Smith, the wife of well-known American actor Will Smith, was exposed to cheating on 27-year-old August Alsina, putting the star couple's marriage in jeopardy.
Jada even confessed to her husband, Will, on her live Red Table Talk show, that the relationship took place just as their marriage was about to break up.
According to the British "Daily Star" reported on October 28, Jada recently openly talked about her married life with Will in the "Red Table Conversation", and admitted that it is difficult to maintain an intimate relationship with her husband after so many years of marriage, even the sweet words between husband and wife will make her feel uncomfortable.
The 50-year-old actress confessed to her female guest, Gwyneth Paltrow, that she had hoped her husband would read her needs, explaining that "if you love me, you should read my mind."
Gwyneth agreed, saying that "when the other person doesn't understand what you mean, it really breaks down."
Jada turned to say, but this is a huge trap, in fact, responsibility is more important for couples, so many years of marital experience has made her understand that communication is the key to balancing married life, and she now knows how to express her needs.
Later, the couple decided to try an open marriage after communication. Jada added that "while it sounds uncomfortable, it's a very healthy way to live for us".
In an interview with GQ magazine last month, 53-year-old Will also confirmed that they decided to have an open marriage because traditional marriage is no longer suitable for them.
The Men in Black star explains: "Jada never believed in traditional marriage... Jada's family members had non-traditional relationships. The way she grew up was very different from the way I grew up. ”
Will also told GQ magazine that marriage can't be like prison, and that they give each other trust and freedom and unconditional support, which is the highest state of love for them.
But Will doesn't advise others to go their own way, believing that everyone can find a path that suits them.
After all, the couple has been married for 24 years, and family affection has long trumped everything.
