It seems like when it comes to relationships that don’t necessarily follow society’s heteronormative norms, the Smith family are all over it.
In November of last year, Will Smith’s son Jaden declared that he was in a relationship with Tyler the creator, saying “I wanna tell you, Tyler doesn’t want to say, but Tyler’s my mother-fucking boyfriend and he’s been my mother-fucking boyfriend my whole fucking life!”
Now, on the Facebook web series Red Table Talk, his sister Willow has come out as bisexual. On top of that, Jada Pinkett Smith also revealed that she and Will are in a throuple with another woman.
The revelations came about because of the episode’s theme, which was “Unconventional Relationships: Can Multiple Partners Work?” During the course of the discussion, Willow came out to her mother Jade and her grandmother Adrienne, saying she definitely wants “one man, one woman.”
“I love men and women equally, and so I would definitely want one man, one woman. I feel like I could be polyfidelitous with those two people. I’m not the kind of person that is constantly looking for new sexual experiences,” she explains. “I focus a lot on the emotional connection and I feel like if I were to find two people of different genders that I really connected with and we had a romantic and sexual connection, I don’t feel like I would feel the need to try to go find more.”
Jada did admit that her stomach “jumped a bit” at the revelation, but did reaffirm her support for Willow, saying: “Listen, you know me Willow: whatever makes you happy.”
Jada then revealed her own unconventional arrangement with her husband — that they were in a non-sexual throuple with Sheree Zampino, Will’s ex-wife.

NATHAN WRITES:
What someone will do once their careers are long-over and must resort to sensationalism about something innate.
To espouse sexuality, publicly, is a sign of desperation and ever-increasing invisibility…as is the case of “Will Smith.”
It is true: there are those who do not understand that it is wiser to let sleeping dogs lie and to separate” private lives from public faces”!
Well these subjects will never stop until all hate is erased from our constantly changing world. Life is so short yet just long enough to for fill your imagination. I don’t think that entertaining the thought of a private engagement between two or three or four people is any ones business. Yes that was wonderful the children got to shop at Cartier. I was so excited to get buster browns. I still have that decal tattoo print stamp that came with the shoes still on the back of my hand lol. I was very grateful. The world is constantly evolving.… Read more »
When will this weird family just go away. I recall reading an interview where Jaden talked about being a normal child just going shopping at cartier after school like… all kids do….
Hmmph! So What Else Is New. I Could’ve Told Ya That.
Trash has no limits.
it literally runs in the family. Will’s been gay, but in closet, since forever, so of course it had no choice but to trickle down to the children. And let’s not forget the secret, very VERY undercover relationship Will’s been having with Duane Martin…they going out of the country on trips together alone, probably why Tisha Campbell finally divorced him.
Lov is lov is love! Live and let love!
I think celebrities sometimes serve a purpose beyond entertainment. Sometimes they expose or create a space of normalcy where it didn’t exist. What these people talked about isn’t that unusual. In many cultures beyond the limitations of the western world have polyamorous relationships. It isn’t for everyone but it is for others. If this is the lifestyle for them, good for them. There was a time where it was scandalous to be divorced and people would get annulments to make it look less scandalous. That changed when celebrities were getting divorce and people cared less. Now someone gets divorced and… Read more »
Nothing surprises me, here, I just wish I would’ve been Will’s type, he certainly is one of mine.
What happens in the Smith’s bedroom or relationships should stay there.
Like father, like daughter.
They are all gay and have always been gay. Get yo’ freak on!
LMAO! now that’s funny asf!
“Throuple” is how Socialists say “promiscuous”
Maybe this family is just showing us is that love has no bounds and we should be more open minded.
Wil is gay. The ‘wife’ is lesbian. And the kids are space aliens. Not aging well either. If mommy and daddy went broke tomorrow, at least Wil could go back to his previous career as rent boy. Not likely the kids are qualified to do anything but push a shopping cart though. What a hot mess of a clan. Capitalism at its finest
WOW!!! Y’all have almost as much negativity towards the Smiths as y’all do towards Beyonce!!! First accepting that neither the Smiths nor the Carter’s give 2 f**ks what any of you think which would require them having time to be aware of your existence!!! Since many of you seem to lack reading comprehension… Nathan, the one Smith not quoted in the article as commenting on his sexuality IS WILL!!! Dubya Tee….”runs in the family” and “trickles down”??? SERIOUSLY??? That’s follows the mindset that gay people will raise gay children which clearly is ignorant and homophobic especially since every lgbtq person… Read more »
Nothing the family says is shocking news it has become a point please be quiet or until you really bring out the big news black people have been talking about for decades
