This is just weird. One thing doesn't have anything to do with the other.

How does it not, when her “alopecia” is the reason Will felt the need to slaps Chris?

I will never forgive them until Jada admits that she does NOT have autoimmune alopecia.

Will smith is a fake dbag.

He also apologizes to Chris' mother.

Agreed. If I were Chris, I'd just keep on keeping on and not give this any more light. Will doesn't deserve his attention.

I actually don’t know how some people stay so solid through all of it.

I agree with this. No excuses for what he did, but I have struggled with mental health and it's hard. It really feels to me like he wants to be well. I think the fame can't possibly help with it, either. The money, yes. The privilege, yes. But I think of some of my mental health challenges and I know that intense public scrutiny would be the worst possible thing for them.

I do hope he gets better and I hope he gets another chance. I'd say that about anyone. What he did was terrible but it is meaningful to apologize and own your mistakes.

Also, regarding Jada -- this was HIS statement. It makes sense for him to say "Jada didn't make me do this" because it's true. No one can make you do anything in the moment like that. Comparing the situation to something Ghislaine Maxwell said about her own culpability is incorrect. It would be an apt comparison if, instead of apologizing for his actions, Smith had said "I regret marrying Jada and listening to her."

He's actually taking responsibility for himself. Let Jada worry about Jada.

"Specifically, he expresses remorse to his wife, clarifying that Pinkett Smith didn’t do or say anything that prompted his violent outburst. “I made a choice on my own, from my own experiences, from my history with Chris. Jada had nothing to do with it,” he stresses."

uh huh. sure, Jan.

Sure, and Ghislaine Maxwell said the worst mistake of her life was becoming friends with Epstein. Not trafficking minors. What a non-apology.

It’s sad to see his mental health take him down. I hope he gets the help he needs and comes back strong because he’s an amazing actor and everybody is growing as a human .. even rich successful people.

I will never forgive him unless he admits he and his wife are mentally ill. There is no other excuse.

He is OVAH.

Haven't even seen the statement but I really strongly agree with the bolded -- I really dislike when someone apologizes and suddenly the onus is on the harmed party to immediately forgive them. Like if the person who messed up gets lots of time to process what they did and come to terms with it, then the person they harmed certainly should as well.
