Jada Pinkett-Smith confirms Will Smith will take legal action over allegations he had sex with male co-star

Jada Pinkett-Smith has confirmed that Will Smith will take legal action over the person who alleged the actor had sex with a male co-star.

Watch below:

Smith's former friend Brother Bilaal - who claims to have once been his assistant - has alleged that he walked in on the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air actor having sex with his co-star from the show Duane Martin.

Bilaal alleges that he walked into Martin’s dressing room and caught the two actors having sex.

In interview with Tasha K, Bilaal - who was promoting his forthcoming book titled Will Smith Demonic Circle - said: "I opened the door to Duane’s dressing room and that’s when I see Duane having anal sex with Will."

However, a representative for Smith responded: "This story is completely fabricated and the claim is unequivocally false."

And now, Smith's wife, Pinkett-Smith, has called the allegations 'nonsense'.

During a recent interview on The Breakfast Club, she said: "This is a person [Bilaal] that tried a money shake down that didn't work.

"We're gonna take legal action because it's one thing to have your opinion about somebody versus salacious and malicious stories. So, that's actionable and we're gonna roll with that.

"It's not true and we're gonna take care of it and that's the end of that. We are taking legal action, for sure."

Speaking about Smith's reaction to the allegations, his wife added: "Here's one good thing about Will. He's always going to find it funny. You have to because it's absolutely ridiculous. You've just got to laugh about it, you know? He was like 'do you believe this s**t?' and we just laughed about it."

This comes after Pinkett-Smith - who married Smith in 1997 - left fans shell-shocked during an interview where she claimed they had been separated for six years, including during the time actor famously slapped comedian Chris Rock at the Oscars last year.

“We’ve been doing some really heavy-duty work together," she explained.

“We just got deep love for each other and we are going to figure out what that looks like for us.”

During an appearance on the Today show, Pinkett-Smith told host Hoda Kotb that by the time she and Smith got to 2016, they were 'exhausted with trying'.

"I think we were both still stuck in our fantasy of what we thought the other person should be," she said.
