Will Smith kisses wife Jada Pinkett Smith’s head during cozy Thanksgiving celebration… after he denied gay affair rumors with Duane Martin
Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith spent Thanksgiving together, along with their three children: Jaden Smith, 25, Willow, 23, and Trey, 31, from Will’s previous marriage.
The 55-year-old Fresh Prince of Bel-Air actor — who recently said he is the victim of a smear campaign — and his wife, 52, each shared holiday posts to their respective Instagram accounts on Friday.
In one of Alan Silfen’s many black-and-white family portraits, Will planted a kiss on Jada’s head.
The longtime couple, who Jada revealed have been separated since 2016, lovingly wrapped their arms around each other in the photo.
It comes after the I Am Legend star had to defend himself after his former assistant, Brother Bilaal, claimed he caught the actor having sex with Duane Martin in a dressing room.

Jada wrote in the Christmas post to her 11.3 million followers: ‘A perfect Thanksgiving Day. I hope yours was too.”
Her post has racked up over 49,000 likes from her fans so far.
Her mother Gammy Norris captioned the post: “Family, friends, good food, good energy and a room full of love for each other! Very grateful!’
Meanwhile, Will, who married Jada in 1997, wrote in his caption: “Best Thanksgiving ever! (That’s momma-mama with her 9 grandchildren!!)’
After two hours, the upload received over 194,000 likes from his supportive fanbase.
The Smith’s wedding was the talk of the media after Pinkett Smith shared some stunners in her memoir Worthy.
While promoting the literary effort on the Today show in October, Pinkett Smith revealed to Hoda Kotb that the couple had been divorced since 2016.
“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 person should be like,” she explained.

However, she wrote in her memoir that she decided to stay by her husband’s side when he punched Chris Rock at the Oscars last year.
At the 94th Academy Awards, Will got out of his seat and walked onto the stage to punch Chris Rock after the comedian made a joke about Jada looking like “GI Jane” because of her bald head, which is due to alopecia.
Rock referenced the 1997 film starring Demi Moore with a shaved head.
After returning to his seat, Will yelled at Chris twice, “Keep my wife’s name out of your damn mouth!” amaze the live audience and viewers watching at home.
Afterwards the mother-of-two said of the incident: ‘I knew it would be a strong reaction. And that was the moment I decided that I would stay by his side.
“You know, it’s funny how intense situations can strengthen love, and it was a pretty tough time, but it definitely brought us closer. So yeah, it’s crazy how things work.”

The family’s strength was tested again earlier this month after Bilaal made the shocking sexual claim about Will.
Will has vehemently denied the accusation, which was made during a now-viral interview with YouTube personality Tasha K, calling it “unequivocally false.”
Jada also came to her husband’s defense, claiming they would file a lawsuit because their children were “hurt” — but not surprised — by Bilaal’s comments.
“Will is focusing on his upcoming film and charity projects but is considering all legal options as he suspects he is the target of a smear campaign,” a legal source told DailyMail.com.
