Will Smith DENIES gay rumors after accusation he was caught having ‘anal sex’ with actor Duane Martin in shock viral interview: ‘Unequivocally false’

Will Smith’s rep says his former assistant’s claims that he caught Smith and actor Duane Martin “engaged in anal sex” are “unequivocally false.”

A rep for the Oscar-winning actor said TMZ On Tuesday he said there was no truth in the accusation, which was made by his former friend/assistant Brother Bilaal in an interview with Tasha K on Tuesday.

The actor enjoyed a seaside excursion last month when he took to Instagram for the first time since his estranged wife Jada Pinkett Smith revealed they have been separated for seven years.

The 55-year-old star was spotted riding in a boat days after his wife of 25 years, 52, spoke publicly about their marital estrangement; and on Sunday he followed up with his own comments on the situation.

The Oscar-winning actor was seen sleeping in the boat’s cabin, with a voiceover saying, “Fun fact about me: I can take a nap almost anywhere,” as the sound of multiple phone notifications went off at the same time.

The Philadelphia resident — who captioned the post, “Notifications turned off” — was then seen smiling on the deck of the boat as the ship zoomed across the sea.

In the clip, Smith was dressed in a puffy black jacket with black athletic pants and white and brown Nike sneakers.

Smith, in an email sent Saturday in the New York Timessaid Pinkett Smith’s recent comments about their relationship were a wake-up call for him, adding that she was “more resilient, smarter and more compassionate” than he had realized.

The King Richard star told the newspaper in an email: ‘When you’re with someone for more than half your life, a kind of emotional blindness sets in.

“And it’s all too easy to lose your sensitivity to their hidden nuances and subtle beauties.”

Pinkett Smith, who has a memoir out Tuesday titled Worthy, told the Today show’s Hoda Kotb last week that her marriage to Smith was at a crossroads seven years ago.

“I think by the time we got to 2016 we were just exhausted from trying,” Pinkett Smith said on air. “I think we were both still stuck in our fantasies of what we thought the other should be like.”

She continued, “I promised that there will never be a reason for us to divorce. We’ll go through everything. And I just couldn’t break that promise.’

Smith is more than a year and a half removed from his infamous incident at the 2022 Oscars in which he punched comedian Chris Rock after he made a joke about Pinkett Smith’s shaved head and said, “Jada, I love you, GI Jane 2 , I can’t wait to see it!’

The reference was to the 1997 film in which Demi Moore had a shaved head. (Pinkett Smith has been diagnosed with alopecia, which causes hair loss.)

He added: ‘I contacted Chris and the message that came back is that he is not ready to talk and if he is he will get in touch. So I will say to you, Chris, I apologize to you. My behavior was unacceptable, and I’ll be here when you’re ready to talk.”
