Long admired couple, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith, apparently have one of those “Hollywood” marriages. Will revealed in an interview with Reveal magazine(don’t ask me why) that the secret to the success of their 11 year marriage is that they have an ‘open relationship’. Will had the following to say:
“Our perspective is, you don’t avoid what’s natural and you’re going to be attracted to people.” he says.
“And if it came down to it, then one would say to the other: ‘Look, I need to have sex with somebody. Now, I’m not going to if you don’t approve of it’.”
The Hancock star explains that the couple’s open policy has been in place from day one of their 10-year marriage.
“In our marriage vows, we didn’t say ‘forsaking all others’. We said ‘you will never hear I did something afterwards’. Because if that happens the relationship is destroyed.”
Though they have yet to take lovers outside of their marriage, the couple will tell each other if the occasion ever arises.
“I don’t know how I’d feel. But I know I would react better than if I found out about it afterwards,” said Smith, in regards to the possibility of his wife asking to take a lover.
Other things that Will says are important in his marriage are keeping in shape for his “little firecracker” Jada, the “look in her eyes”, and communication.
“And lots of sex makes for a good marriage too!”
Though there has long been rumors about Will and Jada’s marriage, this is the first time either has spoken on this subject. But it’s kind of stunning anyway that he volunteered as much information as he did.
