For the first time, Will Smith has denied reports that he is going to divorce his wife Jada Pinkett Smith.

Radar Online reported on August 3 that Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett had decided to split and would make an announcement soon.

However, Will Smith has now posted a message on his Facebook page denying the rumors.

“Under normal circumstances, I don’t usually respond to foolishness… But, so many people have extended me their <<deepest condolences>> that I figured – “What the hell…” he said.

“So, in the interest of redundant, repetitious, over & over-again-ness … Jada and I are … NOT GETTING A DIVORCE!!!!!!!!!!!!! : -)

“I promise you all – if I ever decide to divorce my Queen – I SWEAR I’ll tell you myself!

“#Dumb People Should Have to Wear Scarlet D’s.”

Will Smith married Jada Pinkett in 1997 and they have a son, Jaden, and a daughter, Willow.

Their marriage has been a subject of tabloid rumors for years.

Will Smith has never taken the unusual step of addressing that speculation before.

Jada Pinkett Smith, 43, recently appeared in Magic Mike XXL and TV crime show Gotham, in which she plays gangster Fish Mooney.

She also formed nu metal band Wicked Wisdom in the early noughties, appearing at Ozzfest in 2005.

Will Smith, 46, plays Deadshot in Suicide Squad, which is out next year, and has appeared in movies like Men In Black, Hancock, I Am Legend and Independence Day.
