Will Smith claims he is a target of ‘smear campaign’, says his children feel ‘hurt’ following gay affair allegations
Will Smith has responded to the allegations, claiming he was the victim of a “smear campaign” following the revelation that Brother Bilaal, his former assistant, had seen the actor having sex with his friend Duane Martin in a dressing room.
Prior to this, the 55-year-old celebrity declared the accusation to be “unequivocally false” and stated he was considering suing Bilaal, whom he has known for 40 years, for allegedly attempting to damage his reputation.
Jada Pinkett Smith, 52, dismissed Bilaal’s statements made in a YouTube interview with Tasha K, stating, “We ‘suin’!” The couple, who recently revealed their secret separation seven years ago, has long faced rumors about Will’s sexuality.
A source mentioned that these rumors are not new to them, but Bilaal’s comments are especially hurtful due to his close relationship with Will, causing Jada to be affected by his statements about their credibility and closeness.
Though the claims “hurt” Will’s children, Jaden, 25, and Willow, 23, nothing about their parents surprises them anymore, the source claims. According to the insider, Jaden was forced to “hide his sexuality for years” since “his parents were not having any of it.”

After years of keeping their split a secret, Willow, 23, was reportedly “relieved” when the news of her parents’ separation was finally made public.
Despite the controversy, Will is concentrating on his upcoming movie and charitable projects, actively exploring legal options to counter Bilaal’s claims. According to a legal source, Will finds the allegations ludicrous and is hurt by a former friend turning against him in this manner.
Jada, who also appeared on ‘Breakfast Club,’ dismissed the claims as ridiculous and nonsense, describing it as a failed attempt at a money shakedown. She asserted that they would take legal action because having an opinion about someone is one thing, but making up salacious and malicious stories is another.
