Welp.  Jada Pinkett Smith delivered her "healing" Red Table Talk as promised. And despite her original "All lies" reaction, she seemingly confirms everything August Alsina claimed.  Deets inside.

Jada brought herself to the Red Table as promised, with her husband Will Smith as well, to chat about singer August Alsina's bomb he dropped a recently about his and Jada's apparent relationship that has now ended.  All while she was still very married to Will.

Now, she admits she did have a relationship with the singer, and reveals she and Will were actually separated at

While The Smiths have been rumored to have an open marriage of sorts, they've often shot down those rumors, even when seemingly stirring them back up themselves with who they're seen with and things they say about their relationship in interviews.

So when Jada and singer August Alsina were so openly sharing pics of themselves together and vacationing with the Smith family - often - it was only natural that we all thought something was going on between the two.

Years later, while talking to Angela Yee about his new album less than two weeks ago, August confirmed there was.  He said about Jada:

“I totally gave myself to that relationship for years of my life, and I truly and really, really deeply love and have a ton of love for her. I devoted myself to it, I gave my full self to it—so much so to the point that I can die right now and be OK with knowing that I truly gave myself to somebody.”

August, who says he's now abstinent, said it's his truth, so he's going to talk about it.

“I really loved a person, I experienced that and I know what that feels like—and some people never get that in this lifetime. I know that I am completely blessed and this conversation is difficult because it is so much, that it would be hard for people to understand but—once it starts to affect me and my livelihood—I have to speak up about my truth.”

Then, all hell broke loose.

God said, We may grow weary and tired fighting in the fire, but we shall NOT be burned! The journey to freedom is a deeply complex, tricky, and turbulent road to tow; yet very necessary. Oppression comes in so many forms these days, beginning w/ physical slavery and bondage to the white man, then passed down generational programming that manifest into mental enslavement. Slaves to an idea, slaves to an image, slaves to a code of conduct, slaves to a picture you’ve created in your mind.. even if it contains many falsities.. & anything that differentiates from your “idea” & “image” feels like an attack. & I get it; not only do i get it but I’m also sorry you feel that way, BUT, The only attack here is against the invisible walls of silent societal construct and “code” we place upon each other & upon ourselves hidden behind the desires of others approval & acceptance; another form of slavery & bondage that blocks one’s truest self from showing & spirit flow. Be blocked and stuck for what? Live silent, pressed down crippled in fear for who ? Adversary is but a gift given to you to flourish. We are surround by so much disharmony in this external world, so it is my forever job to do whatever’s necessary to reach the gift of harmony within myself. Truth & Transparency makes us uncomfortable, yes, but i can’t apologize for that. A tower of truth can never fall, only a tower of lies can do that. My truth is MY truth, & its mine to own. There is no right or wrong here, it simply just IS. & I make room and have acceptance for your thoughts and opinions, regardless if I agree or not, you have that freedom to feel WHATEVER it is u feel because when you’re at TRUE peace, all of the noise and chatter becomes that of a whisper. My heart has no malice or hate toward anyone on this planet. I just simply want the chains off & I’m willing to DIE getting there. The gift of freedom is yours to have, God promises us that, but only if you’re willing. &God is not a man that HE should lie.. & I’m His SON, so neither would I. W/ that being said i should also say that, no one was side swiped by any conversation, everyone got courtesy calls time in advance. Wishing Everyone Big Love!

Jada responded with "All lies!" on her social media platforms, then August wrote a LENGTHY rebuttal (above) to that bascially saying "I said what I said AND I called you before saying it," then Jada said "we have some healing to do at the Red Table."  So here we are.  You can watch the new RTT episode in full below:

While discussing how the "relationship" with August went down, Will and Jada revealed they had previously separated.

Smith replied, "I was done with you." "We broke up," she said, clarifying. "We decided that we were going to separate for a period of time."

"And then what did you do, Jada?" Smith asked.

"From there as time went on I got into a different kind of entanglement with August. One thing I want to clean up… about you giving 'permission' which is... the only person that can give permission in that circumstance is myself," she said.

She continued, "But what August was probably trying to communicate because I could see how he could see it as permission because we were separated amicably, and I think he wanted to make it clear he’s not a homewrecker because he’s not."

Smith asked her to clarify what she meant by "entanglement," to which she said, "Yes, it was a relationship absolutely."

Hmph.  Sounds like August told the truth to us. 

It's important to note, he didn't say he received Will's "permission."  He said he received his blessing. He said:

“I actually sat down with Will [Smith] and had a conversation due to the transformation from their marriage to life partnership… He gave me his blessing.”

That's that on that. Your thoughts?
