Jada Pinkett-Smith allegedly has a lavish lifestyle that she’s requiring her husband, Will Smith to support.
In its June 20 issue, National Enquirer claimed that Jada and Will’s marriage hasn’t been going well. But the Aladdin actor is doing everything that he can to make his wife stay.
As such, Jada saw this as the perfect opportunity to sustain her lavish lifestyle. After all, she knows that she can use her husband’s savings and he won’t be able to complain to her face.
“It’s not like they’re broke. They have money and investments, but they have a huge outlay and he doesn’t know what’s going to happen with him career-wise, given that his name is mud right now thanks to Slapgate. They are totally tied together financially, and people assume that’s why they haven’t divorced already. He wants to slow the spending, but she’s burning right through their cash to fund her vanity projects and all her other extravagances,” the source said.
Some of the things that Jada allegedly loves to purchase are jewelry and other designer items.
“She spends a fortune on her appearance, plus masseurs, and trainers. She only goes to the most luxurious salons for her mani-pedis. Will gripes their food budget through the roof and they need to economize and use coupons. Jada buys a lot of things she doesn’t need and that’s always been a thorn in his side,” the source said.
However, one should take the tabloid’s claims with a grain of salt. It’s not true that Jada has been using up all of Will’s money. After all, the Gotham alum has her own money from acting, as well as her hosting gig on the Red Table Talk.
It’s not also true that the couple has to survive using food coupons because they have to make adjustments to support Jada’s spending.
It’s obvious that the tabloid concocted this story to make it seem as though the Smiths are having problems in their marriage. Prior to this, multiple tabloids alleged that Jada and Will were on the brink of a divorce after the latter’s controversial Oscars slap.
Earlier this year, Will slapped Chris Rock while the latter was hosting the Oscars because the comedian made fun of Jada’s condition called alopecia. And just last week, Jada released a statement saying that she hopes everyone would heal from the incident.
