Will and Jada “I Am Legend”

Will Smith gives a little advance on having a successful marriage:

“Divorce can’t be an option – it’s really that simple. If you just remove the option… because, if you have the option, one day that person’s gonna make you wanna divorce. “That’s been a huge part of the success for she (Pinkett Smith) and I…

We’re like, ‘Listen, we’re gonna be together one way or the other so might as well try and be happy.”

They are definitely one of those Hollyweird couples that we believe will stand the test of time. All married couples should probably take notes.

  • I’m Just Me

    They look great together and I am so so glad that they are working it out. I agree that if you take out the divorce option, you will find a way to make it work out

  • ~*~IslandNik~*~

    wow…. that made me love him even more lol lol..

    im glad for them.. too many couples nowadays callin it quits!! i agree wit them divorse should never b an option

    Hello!!! Whatever happened to his first wife? Jada, is the second wife.

  • http://www.myspace.com/thegameoncw Bird

    Not all people are the same. Will is very family oriented and doesn’t think of a family as a ball and chain like many people do.

  • And…..

    I agree to a certain extent. If most problems are “disagreements” between spouses, then yes, those things can be worked out and should not be a cause for divorce. However, there are some things that should not be tolerated and are deal breakers (abuse, multiple affairs, psychopathic personalities,DL issues, etc..).

  • Vinandi

    thats love- black love!!!

  • Dark Cable

    And it certainly helps if your woman is fine as hell and works to keep herself in shape… Let Jada put on about 50lbs and see what he says about divorce then.

    Hello!!! Whatever happened to his first wife? Jada, is the second wife.

    **************************************************

    Will’s first wife left him because she was unhappy with the demands of his celebrity. It was not Will’s choice and he shared his devastation publicly. This is a man who wants to be married and he found the perfect match the second time around.

  • SHUTMEUP

    They are such a beautiful couple…I could just dip them in bronze and turn them into a statue for all the world to see..(lol) but Really it’s nice to see a healthy relationship when there is so many disfunctional ones out there!!

  • soulwoman

    I remember Will saying with his first marriage he put his career first and that caused a lot of problems in the marriage. Rev Run mad the same comment. So that should be a lesson to all the marriage, or those that are thinking about marriage – keep balance in your life.

  • getyourhandouttamypocket

    They look great together. With all the divorces happening lately, it’s refreshing to see a genuinely happy couple.

  • kigali

    Will got himself a hood chick. I love it. She looks too fine in this pic.

  • da darkness

    you can tell all through her early schooling heads wanted to dry hump jada. what the hell is Will doing here? lol

  • casper

    Why does someone discriminate black? I don’t think love is just belongs to white. I’m a black and but my hubby is white. We met at +(((((+ I n t i m a t e m i n g l e. c o m +))))+which tell us love is color blind. Our love proved this. I hope each one will not discriminate blacks.

    I would like to thank +((((+ I n t i m a t e m i n g l e. c o m +))))+for bringing a very close friend from 17 years ago. I never had the chance to express how I really felt. I had always watched her from afar, but due to Mutual friends it wouldn’t be right, but now we are planning to meet for new years eve. We have exchanged dozens of e-mails and phone calls. She now knows how I felt for her 17 years ago, And our future is as bright as ever.

  • Lady Architect

    I’m glad they throw the divorce word away because people get divorced for dumb reasons nowadays anyway. If you commit adultery or something serious like that then I understand the reason for divorce. People need to take time to get to know their partner anyways instead of rushing marriage then saying you didn’t know their personality well.

  • pm

    He married someone on his level so that made it easy. If she was sitting at home callin him every 5 min in the middle of filming then he would have been left her. I think a famous person shouldnt marry someone normal.

  • Ebony

    ..I’m sure they argue when the cameras are off!!!! Come on now..they are human. I love their union for they are in love and not afraid to share it. I just can’t get with this “secret” stuff. If your relationship can break under the pressure of a few rumors, then the foundation wasn’t that stable in the beginning. Jada’s gay….Will’s gay….They’re swingers…all this has been said and they did just what you should do IGNORE the rumors and keep it pushing. I agree…100% of hollywood couples should take note!

  • http://www.anythingblack.net www.anythingblack.net

    Will Smith take G to the same level.

    And they might be swinging but will aint gay

  • Kompton’s Kutie

    @Southern Belle

    Good Morning!

  • versace

    ok with that comment, it was hard work to work it out with her? It had to be more than that and again where is she is now and who is she at peace with that is not a workalochic to pay the bills. She knew who he was when they got together. Did she marry a 9-5 guy?

  • Suga Mo

    That’s Deep!!!! Those are words we all need to hear.

  • Kompton’s Kutie

    I love Will and Jada!

    They know how to keep the fire alive and it seems as though they have good communication. So, I am very happy to see Black couples stay up and work things out. Good Job!

  • stillirise

    With all the scientology rumors swirling around these two, this is the most sensible thing I’ve heard coming from this camp in a while. People are to quick to take the easy way out. You have to be committed to WORKING if you want a successful marriage. When you’re tempting to stop making an effort to make the other persosn happy and want to just relax and let the ugly hang out, you have to be committed to staying the course and to working at happiness. Good for them.

  • realwoman

    Now THIS is a couple I am impressed with.

  • mrslaadee

    Will and Jada and Denzel and Pauletta are REAL marriages and not this fake 2 month marriage hollywood sh*t we have gotten use to. These are people who actually got married b/c they love each other, respect each other and their careers, want to spend the rest of their lives together, and are not looking to see how their spouse can jump start their careers. When marriages are based on realness by real people, they tend to work out.

  • guilty pleasure

    I love the way he’s looking at her in this pic….they are such a cute couple!

  • Marquis de Sade

    Will it’s time for an upgrade. May i suggest Kim Kardashian or Meagan Fox?

  • dayg715

    “we’re gonna be together one way or the other so we may as well TRY to be happy”?

    that doesn’t sound like a happily married couple. that sounds like proof that this “marriage” is a sham in order to hide the fact that they’re both gay. and you fools actually think they’re a happily married straight couple. y’all believe Michael Jackson’s nose is real too, don’t you?

  • Da R

    black people are idiots. it’s blatantly obvious that he’s a fag, and she’s a dyke. then again, black people are good for putting on blinders when the truth is too obvious.

  • Rotex

    Ofcourse you shouldnt make divorce an option.

  • Nik

    jada got that negro on lock his first wife seems very nice though

  • Lovely One

    I agree. Divorce shouldn’t be an option. I guess that means there’s no need for a pre-nupt either.

  • Nordstrom’s is having a Sale!

    “we’ll try and be happy.”

    hummm I give 2 more years

  • bria

    I think because they do stupid and foolish things to try and hide their relationship. Like hiding wedding rings and denying their relationship. They seem mature and seem to respect their wedding.

  • If their love is sooo beautiful….

    let me see yall be happily married with the option of sleeping with other people….sorry but that’s not a true biblical based marriage, so don’t bring God into this

  • Neo-Geo

    Divorce is not an option cuz they’re SWINGERS. Point Blank. Not mad them. Do you if that’s ur style.

  • kgizza

    Agree with Neo-Geo. Swinging takes the cheating out of the marriage. No wonder they’re both happy. If most couples had the go ahead to swing and they did it openly and didn’t lie about it, you’d probably cut divorces down in half. Of course, jealousy might be up ten-fold but that is another episode.

    Free love…

  • H-town

    I guess my marriage would be happy too IF WE GOT TO HAVE SEX W/ANYBODY WE WANTED TO!! (sick bastards)

  • so f*ckin’ rude

    @ versace

    lmfao you are retarded lol and i thought maybe you just wasn’t hipped to the government system. smh you must not read on whats going on in the world. you are sheltered huh? will first wife divorced him get it right he didn’t leave her. she left him plus he was young so his mental is on a different plan. somethin’ is mentally wrong with you

  • BellaY

    Oh who cares if they swing??? That’s their business. And if it helps to keep their relationship strong then maybe more people should try it! I don’t know if these rumors are true or not. But if they are, so what?? At least they’re being honest with each other.

  • pee pee

    jada needs to give up that heavy metal crap she sucks to the top of the roof and all that booze drinking maybe she is sharing her man with quincey jones that why mariah made nick cannon come home when piddy diddy and quincey where at the party

  • Lori E.

    I LOVE THEM!

  • Realmatic

    You know what? I really like that. That’s not something I ever thought of.

    I met these two a few years ago and I’m a fine n***a and Jada never looked at me once. You know why? Because she wouldn’t even give me the satisfaction of saying I caught her eye. She knows the game and ain’t going to play it. People can hate on them all they want, but they know the different bs that is out there trying to interfere in their relationship and I have the utmost respect for what they’ve done and accomplished as a FAMILY.

  • http://www.MyUltraEshop.com Freebie Force

    Cute pic of them, one of my fave couples, long live Will and Jada!

  • persona

    So basically if they had the option to divorce they WOULD divorce? I’m confused.

  • foofoolaa

    yo, secret to jada’s success is to:

    MARRY RICH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Will Smith could have done way better. Jada trapped Will with the same ol trap-a-good-blackman scenerio that every blackman is constantly faced with.

  • chris

  • try the different flavors

    it’s not cheating if they’re upfront about it. it seems that they’re honest about swinging and there’s nothing wrong with THAT just as long they wear protection. some people are able to be monogamous, some people cant. JUST BE HONEST WITH YOUR PARTNER you men and you womyn out there just like the guys(u know who ya r)

  • claroliza

    where there’s smoke there’s fire. so all this gay, bisexual, swingers rumors gotta be coming from somewhere. How come nobody is saying Wesley Snipes is gay, or Beyonce is a swinger or 2PAC (r.i.p) was bi-sexual? come on now.

    Only jada and will know what’s the real deal in their marriage. but IMO, these two are some major, downlow freaks and we’ll be hearing the truth 20 years from now on some tell-all book. mark my words.

  • Ben

    This is a throwaway generation, and I am so proud of the two of them for taking the posture of “No Option for Divorce”. That is a biblical position. It is a covenant for life. They are setting a precedence and therefore they are setup for much persecution, trials, and tests. I pray they are willing to dig a foxhole, and maintain the respect, commitment, and adoration for each other whether one commits adultery, changes for the worst, or even leaves. “Whether the Storms”. Let the other stand on the premises set from the beginning, and the other will in due season return. That is my Prayer. Be reminded my friends, our children are being torn apart by fickle minded sexual activities, with no responsible commitment. Don’t just sleep around build a home, not just a house. Play life like “Chess”, Begin to see life’s repercussions before you move. In due season these traits will payoff!

    Ben

  • Shalove

    I’ve always loved Will & Jada. They look like the perfect couple and I hope they go on and on for years. There have been so many rumors out there about their open relationships which makes me think maybe that’s why they are still so much in love and last for so long. Kudos to both of you.

  • ds

    Yes, i really admire Will and Jade that is another black celeb couple that i admire. I say go Will and Jada continue to do what you do, do no let anything tare you apart. Incompatability is the wrong reason for couples splitting, There are a lot of good looking men and women in this world and i am quite sure that Will and Jada is not blind to that. As long as you are not lusting after that person. I do not know why people think that when you acknowleged that someone look good that you want that person, that is the point that i was trying to make to you men, you can have a women that is good to you and when you see other pretty women then there you go, but, she might see men that looks good also, but that does not mean that she wants him, I have heard many of married women and single mention how good looking Denzel Washington looks but i think nothing about that comment because i do not think by them saying how good he looks that they wants to go out and have an affair with him, especially not the women that i know, because they don”t run after every man because he looks good they have restraints.

  • ds

    First of all in case aol is reaing this, i had receive an questioniare from you. saying should you stay with a with a cheating spouse, Now some other blogs that i had read from comments that people where very hard on some especially politcal women that stayed with their cheating spouse i thought that the comments that were made was not fair to the innocent wives because after all it is not them cheating , some comments were made that she should get out of that married while she had any decency left, also they they put the spouse that were not having an affair on the same level with the spouse that were having an affair because she decided to stand by her husband side i think that is not right to judge her wrongly like that because you don”t not what that women had to go through it was not easy for her, i am quite sure that she is not agreeing with their husband cheating ways. The scriptures does give reason for divorce it is adultery. I feel that is her business if she decided to stay and that is her business if she decided to leave. She should not be timidated if she decided to stay, or leave, that is why i say to you men if you do have a women that is good wife to you and if you are messing around on her in every way don’t think that she is always going to be there because it is not right keep on keeping, on if you really cared about her you would not jeopardize her health, you know all kind of disease out their especially aids, If the shoe was on the other foot i bet you men would not dare tolerate your women sleeping around you would call her a tramp. both sexes these days are having affairs, some one comment that Will and Jada might be having some outsiders to keep their marrige alive, i don”t want to thimk that nothing like that is happening because that is not the way to go. Scriptures says one man and one women.

  • http://lynhugh@aol.com lynda

    Jada is sooooooooooooo ghetto. Who cares what kind of couple they are. Will was interviewed by Barbara Walters, and she took over the interview. She does not know her place. They did nto mentioned in the interview about swinging on National TV????? They are fake.

  • just because it looks good….

    Did you all see him on Ellen? Not the Willy that I grew up watching, but they say change is good,right?

    They have 3 children that look up to them and depend on them, HELL YEAH they’d better stay together!

    Who cares what arrangements tjey’ve made in the bedroom…they are responsible, loving parents and that’s what matters most;)

  • Wanda Jones

    Leave them alone…….they are a happy loving BLACK couple…..you all are just hating…be glad for them and their family…I Love It……….
