On the latest episode of Red Table Talk, Jada Pinkett-Smith shared the table with her mother and actress Gwneyth Paltrow.

Jada clapped back and affirmed that she and Will had never had “an issue in the bedroom.”
Rapper 50 Cent commented on the trending headlines as well. He took to Twitter and posted a picture of Will and Jada then wrote, “Why she keep doing sh*t like this? It makes the relationship appear weak. First an entanglement. Now, this. WTF”
