    Will Smith gifted Jada Pinkett Smith life-size pillows of their blended family for Valentine's Day

    The 54-year-old actress shared a photo of the sweet present, which featured her and the 57-year-old actor, as well as their children, son Jaden Smith, 27, and daughter Willow Smith, 25, and Will's eldest child, Trey Smith, 33, whom he has with his 58-year-old ex-wife, actress Sheree Zampino.


    Jada took to her Instagram Stories on Saturday (14.02.26), and shared a video of the various-sized pillows with the family members' faces printed on them against the walls of a big room, and some beside multiple flower bouquets and a balloon that read "Love".

    She wrote over the clip: "Life size pillows for a family snuggle.

    "Thank you @willsmith. Happy Love Day everybody. (sic)"

    Will and Jada met on the set of sitcom, The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air when she auditioned for the role of Will's on-screen girlfriend, Lisa Wilkes.

    They got married on New Year's Eve, December 31, 1997, during an intimate ceremony held in Baltimore, Maryland.

    However, in October 2023, she revealed that they had secretly separated in 2016, but chose to remain married to one another.

    Appearing on NBC's Today show at the time, Jada said: "It was not a divorce on paper, but it was a divorce."

    Asked why they kept their separation a secret for seven years, the Scream 2 star responded: "I think just not being ready yet.

    "Still trying to figure out between the two of us how to be in a partnership, and in regards to how do we present that to people, you know? And we hadn't figured that out."

    Jada and Will felt "exhausted" by trying hard to make their relationship work.

    She said: "I think by the time we got to 2016, we were just exhausted with trying. I think we were both kind of just still stuck in our fantasy of what we thought the other person should be."

    Also in October 2023, Jada revealed that she and Will were "figuring out" their future.

    Speaking about the state of their marriage at the time, Jada told People magazine: "We're still figuring it out.

    "We've been doing some really heavy-duty work together. We just got deep love for each other, and we are going to figure out what that looks like for us...

    "I'm going to be by his side. but also allow him to have to figure this out for himself."
