Will Smith and Wife Jada Pinkett Smith in Rare PDA After Split Rumors

The I Am Legend actor Will Smith  and Jada Pinkett Smith, were photographed in a very rare PDA moment, outside the Nobu restaurant in New York City on Sunday, September 13.

The photo taken by the photographer, had Jada's arm around her husband's waist, as she gazed lovingly at Will. It was looked like a very intimate moment, with their son Jaden looking at them somewhat aghast. Quite normal for a teenager's reaction.

Will and Jada are rarely seen this way, except when they're on the red carpet or during award shows, when they freely do a PDA.

The couple were in family outing that day together with their children, Jaden and Willow, and some friends. Will and wife Jada, who have been married since 1997, have often been rumored to be in the brink of separation. After all they have been married for 18years now, a rarity in Hollywood couples.
Over a month ago, the couple were confronted again with the speculation, that their marriage was on the rocks.  Will of course denied the reports.

In public statement he posted on his Facebook page, he wrote "Under normal circumstances, I don't usually respond to foolishness. (Because it's contagious) But, so many people have extended me their 'deepest condolences' that I figured- 'What the hell ... I can be foolish, too!" In addition, ' So, in the interest of redundant, repetitious, over &over-again-ness...Jada and I are ... NOT GETTING A DIVORCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-) I promise you all - if I ever decide to divorce my Queen - I SWEAR I'll tell you myself! #Dumb People Should Have to Wear Scarlet D's."

If the recent photos are not enough to convince everyone of their 'marital bliss', Jada Pinkett Smith has this to say during an interview with American Way magazine, 'I'm blessed. So scrutinize me. I'll take that any day over what the majority of my people are dealing with on a daily basis. I dare not complain." 

She relates that she doesn't really mind being the object of gossip, as it is nothing compared to what others have to go through in life. She is aware of the plight of other women and greatly sympathises with mothers who are losing their sons, husbands, daughters---family. So there is really no comparison with what she has been subjected to.
