Published on July 2, 2020, Will Smith has denied allegations that he gave his wife Jada Pinkett Smith permission to have an affair with singer August Alsina.
According to Smith's representative, August's claims that he had a romantic relationship with Jada are 'wrong.'
August Alsina, 27, made the allegations in an interview with Angela Yee, published on YouTube, where he claimed to have been in a years-long relationship with Pinkett while she was married to Smith.
However, Pinkett's representatives have termed the claims 'absolutely not true,' according to Page Six and TMZ.
August claimed that he formed a friendship with the famous family through their 21-year-old son Jaden in 2015, after which he embarked on a romantic relationship with Pinkett, who is 48 years old.
He even went on holiday to Hawaii with the family in 2016 and attended the 2017 BET Awards alongside Pinkett.
