Jada Pinkett Smith was taken aback when hubby Will smacked Chris Rock at the 2022 Oscars. Chatting with People, she said, “I thought, ‘This is a skit.'”

She let People in on a secret too: during that Oscar drama, she and Will hadn’t been together-together for six years.

Before her book “Worthy” hits the shelves, she got chatty about that Oscar moment. Chris had poked fun at her bald look due to her alopecia.

“I was like, ‘There’s no way that Will hit him,'” Pinkett Smith said. “It wasn’t until Will started to walk back to his chair that I even realized it wasn’t a skit.”

Post-Oscars, in a quiet moment, she turned to Will, asking, “Are you OK?”

Pinkett Smith shared with People that she and Smith are “still figuring it out.”

“We’ve been doing some really heavy-duty work together,” she mentioned. “We just got deep love for each other and we are going to figure out what that looks like for us.”

In that same chat with People, Pinkett Smith got real about her mental battles. She touched on her fight with depression and even thoughts of ending her life. She also mentioned her experience with the psychedelic, ayahuasca.

“When Will and I got together, I was on Prozac for my depression,” she recalled. “Meeting him, I felt I was on cloud nine. I thought, ‘I’m healed.’ But, that wasn’t the case.”

By 40, she admitted, “so much pain.”

“I couldn’t figure a way out besides death,” she confessed. “So I made a plan.” She said stopped having suicidal thoughts when she started taking ayahuasca.

“It gave me a new intimate relationship with myself that I had never had before,” she revealed.

And she’s not the only one in the family; Will and their grown kids have tried it too.
