Will and Jada, who tied the knot in 1997, had not been seen together since May when they attended the Los Angeles premiere of Bad Boys: Ride or Die.

At the time, the couple posed on the red carpet with their children, Jaden Smith, 26, and Willow Smith, 24, and Will's 31-year-old son, Trey, whom he shares with his ex-wife Sheree Zampino. The family outing came months after the Set It Off actress publically announced that things had been rough as she and Will had been separated for seven years.

“We’re still figuring it out,” Jada told People last year in October. “We’ve been doing some really heavy-duty work together. We just got deep love for each other, and we are going to figure out what that looks like for us,” she continued, explaining that she would always be by her longtime husband's “side” “but also allow him to have to figure this out for himself,” added the Girls Trip actress referring to the infamous 2022 Oscars slap.
