Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith recently caught everyone’s attention as they stepped out for their first outing in ten months. On September 6, the estranged couple, who were reportedly living separately since 2016, were photographed together after a long time. Speaking about their relationship, a source claimed that they seemingly don’t live under one roof. Allegedly, they would not file for divorce because they’re bonded by finances.

Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith have been quietly living in different homes since 2016. The truth came to light when the 53-year-old confessed to the same in a 2023 interview. Despite their estranged relationship, they have attended various public events as a couple. After their recent Malibu sighting, a source told RadarOnline that they might get back together again. However, the reason might not be just love.
“It’s obvious that staying together is simpler than untangling years of joint ventures,” they said. Although the couple would never “frame it as financial,” the insider believed that splitting their massive “joint empire — from properties to production ventures” could be a struggle. Hence, the Smiths might seemingly want to avoid the messy and expensive process, which turned out to be what was keeping them together all this time.
The news came after the two were spotted at the restaurant, Nobu, in Malibu. Jada wore a nude hooded dress with sunglasses and minimal accessories. Will, on the other hand, donned a white T-shirt with two horizontal stripes over the chest with khaki pants. Wearing a baseball cap, he was all smiles, walking side by side with his wife while holding a bag.
A year after the “Slapgate” incident, where the 56-year-old was slapped by Chris Rock during the 2022 Oscars, Jada revealed a marriage secret. On “Jada’s Story – An NBC News Special,” she said, “I made a promise that there will never be a reason for us to get a divorce.” Hence, they have been living separately for around a decade now.
