Will Smith Shares First Instagram Post Since Wife Jada Opened Up About Marriage: ‘Notifications Off’

Will Smith is breaking his silence – sort of.

The actor, 55, returned to Instagram on Sunday with his first post since wife Jada Pinkett Smith opened up about their marriage.

The video post showed Smith sleeping on a boat in the sea surrounded by various sounds of chimes and bells.

“Fun fact about me: I can take a nap almost anywhere,” the voiceover said before Smith woke up, sat up straight and shook his head at the camera.

“Notifications turned off :)”, he jokingly wrote in his description.

“Yeah, that’s pretty hot,” Smith said in response to the sight.

Jada, 52, responded to the video and wrote: “😂🤣.”

“We’re still figuring it out,” Jada told PEOPLE ahead of the release of her memoir Worthy Tuesday. “We did really hard work together. We just got a deep love for each other and we’re going to figure out what that looks like for us.”

Will and Jada married on New Year’s Eve 1997 while she was pregnant with their first child, Jaden, 25. The couple are also parents to Willow, 22, and Trey, 30.

In the following interview, Jada said that she and Will do not have a prenuptial agreement and that she does not plan to divorce the star.

“Look, weddings are beautiful, but they can be very romantic,” she said Parade.

“I feel like it was the right moment for the two of us to look each other in the eye, realize that there are going to be hard times on this journey, and to say to each other, ‘No matter what, we’re going to figure it out,'” Jada continued. “And that’s why we don’t need a prenuptial agreement, because I promise that a divorce will not be necessary, that we will solve it.”

She added: “And we made that promise to each other without all the beauty of a bridal wedding; it was just sitting on a log in his mother’s yard and saying, ‘Hey.’ I have to really consider the possibility of us not being together.”
