‘Betrayals of the heart’
In a teaser for an upcoming episode of Red Table Talk, Jada Pinkett Smith can be seen talking to couple therapist Esther Perel about the various forms of relational betrayal, reports eonline.com.
The 47-year-old actress said, “I’m asked a lot about, ‘Is there infidelity in your relationship with Will Smith’?” the Girls Trip star says. “And it’s like, ‘No, but there have been other betrayals of the heart that have been far bigger than I could even think in regards to an infidelity situation’.”
Even though Pinkett Smith doesn’t specify what these situations were, she does say that she’s both cheated and has been cheated on in relationships prior to Smith. “I have to tell you, me cheating on someone was more devastating than me being cheated on,” she tells her mother and co-host Adrienne Banfield-Norris.
“Yes, it actually taught me to forgive when I got cheated on because I understood. And what I understood most was it didn’t have anything to do with me.” Pinkett and Will Smith like any other couple did experience several highs and lows over the course of their relationship.
