Loose Women panelists Kaye Adams, Linda Robson and Nadia Sawalha have slammed Jada and Will Smith over fooling the public for seven years amid secret separation
The Loose Women panelists have slammed Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith for duping the public into believing that they were in a solid marriage for seven years – but had, in fact, secretly separated.
Earlier this week, news emerged that the Hollywood couple had decided to silently call it quits in 2016 but kept up the pretence that their marriage was standing the test of time. And this, it seems, left the panel struggling to comprehend. So much so, presenter Kaye Adams was the first to voice her opinion as she said during Thursday afternoon’s show: “I mean they went to that Oscars thing, ‘don’t you talk about my wife like that’.”

She explained that when Jada and Will first got together, they were both known as individuals and had their own fame. But as the years crept on, Jada felt she had lost herself in the marriage and instead of being known in her own right, she became known as “Mrs Will Smith”.
But Kaye, 60, was clearly having none of it. She continued: “Its up to them what they want to do, its none of our business is it? But that kind of act of pretence is the bit that I find kind of odd for seven years, can you see how people…”
And it was at this point that Linda Robson, who has also gone through hardships in her marriage, added to the discussion. She said: “I wouldn’t be able to keep up the pretence, no. If something is not right in the relationship then I find it very hard to disguise it. And things haven’t been right in my relationship for quite a long time, I’ve been very honest about it.”

The discussion then quickly moved on to whether the panel would be able to disguise an argument that they previously had with their partner, if it had remained unresolved and they were out in public.
Speaking of a memorable moment she shared with her husband Mark, Nadia Sawalha explained: “Mark doesn’t drink and then sometimes I accidentally have two quick cocktails. And one particular night we went to that really nice Heston Blumenthal (restaurant). We were at a terrible table where we were right by the loo or kitchen door or something.
“So the door was slamming but I was looking at Mark and he was looking out at everybody. I was drunk, I was menopausal without any medication and I was just mad. So I berated him.”
Kaye then asked her to elaborate on what she meant by that. And so Nadia continued: “(He was saying) ‘People are listening’.”
Nadia added that she told him:”Nobody’s listening, ‘just because you don’t want me to say this, why is it that it’s never the right time to say anything to you and he’s like… ‘ honestly if you say to him Heston Blumenthal he’ll start shaking at the memory of it.”
