Sources close to the couple reveal that explosive fights are driving Will and Jada to divorce — and that a nasty battle over their $520 million estate is coming.
After 14 years of marriage, Will Smith, 43, and Jada Pinkett Smith, 40, seem to be heading straight for divorce, sources reveal in a new Star magazine report. Endless fights, Will’s nights out partying with the guys and sleeping in separate bedrooms have left the couple living two “separate lives.”
“They’ve been faking it for a long time and they don’t want to live a lie anymore,” a source tells Star magazine. “Living and sleeping separately — and now Will finally walking out on Jada — have pushed them to their limit. They’re done.”
The marriage is done. “Will and Jada are finished,” says another insider. “They’re still keeping up appearances because they worry divorce could hurt their careers, but there’s no turning back now. It needs to end.”
Sources expect that the couple will file for divorce quite soon — and that a nasty, drawn-out battle over their $520 million will follow.
In August, the couple fought off rumors that they had already split, and they tried to work on their issues. “They’ve been trying to work through it, but things came to a head in early November, when they got into a huge knock-down, drag-out fight,” a source shares. “They put up a good front in public, but behind doors they really fight like cats and dogs. They’ve always had issues in their relationship, and now they’re bubbling to the surface.”
Will “has taken to spending many nights” in a different bedroom from Jada, notes an insider. “He’s barely speaking to Jada as it is. But when they fight, he’ll storm out and go off to spend time with his guy friends. He and Jada are living separate lives.”
Will has also been traveling all over the world with his guy pals, almost as to forget about his problems back at home. On Nov. 26, he was spotted at Drink! Win Bar in Port of Spain. Later that night, he was out until 4 a.m. at 51 Degrees. He “wasn’t wearing a wedding ring,” says a witness.
“Will feels like he’s living a lie for everyone else, but he knows it needs to end,” explains a source. “They can’t keep pretending.”

To anybody who leaves a post after Jan. 27th 2012. Please try to use proper english and grammer. It’s disgusting to read, let alone try to decipher, the horrible posts the previous individuals have left. Using “ebonics” is just another excuse to be lazy! You don’t hear Will or Jada, or even their kids talk like that. Why, because they know it’s lazy and won’t provide the proper career oppurtunities that they would want for their children or themselves!

Will, Jada … Look you two love each, and above all else that’s the best bond you two have,besides the kids. People have to stop being selfish,….and live, love, compromise for family. Have faith. No one puts in this much time to give up. Their’s something special about you, and you need to fix whatever it is.

I hope they don’t split up maybe they need to try marriage council. They need to really figure out why they r fighting. He needs to spend time with his wife and less time with the boys and she needs to be a nurturing to his needs. And need to put God first he works everything out. If they don’t do it for themselves at least for the children.

Marriage is great if you marry your wife. Marriage is hell if you marry some other person’s wife. No one should live in hell. After 14 years if it ain’t working I say walk.What do I know I am patching one such mess my damn self. It is better for the children and for the individual’s involved. In the end it comes down to the two “adults”. Marriage is as mysterious as death.

I think will and jada should work things out. I think after 14 years you shouldn’t just let things go like that. It’s one thing they should think about and that’s their children.

I heard of the rumors myself. I’ve been following both of their career for over twenty years now, and I think they are probably tired of each other. So Jada can give me a call and we can get together. JUST KIDDING. But I do think they are a little stress out, with their career and their kids career. I think they need sometime away from each other,because 14 years is a very long time.

I think your right. I believe they need sometime to themselves. I think you have the sexiest comments Brian can I get your number.

Its a shame that when you become famous in this world you have paparazzi breathing down your neck to get the latest photo. If you’re a couple you have no privacy either. I really feel that Paparazzi need to back off and let our actors and actresses live their lives in a safe productive manner which should include privacy. I don’t need to know when someone is shopping or walking the dog its ridiculous what this animal of paparazzi has become. Remember Princess Diana?

WOW! I don’t even know what to say about this post. Go to school much? Or at all? Talk about an excuse to be lazy. Why bother typing it, if a 7 year old kid who goes to school could do a better job!

They do not need to divorce they should think of their children and settle it amicably now or in future they may regret it and they should not allow any third party between and forgive each other for their children and in future.
