Jada Pinkett Smith has revealed that she and husband Will Smith have secretly been separated for the last seven years - as she admitted that the pair, who tied the knot in 1997, are still trying to 'figure out' what the future of their marriage looks like. 

The 52-year-old shared the shock news about her relationship in a new interview with People - before also opening up about their situation in more detail in a sit-down with NBC News this morning.

Speaking to Hoda Kotb on the Today show, Jada explained why her marriage to Will, 55, broke down, divulging: 'By the time we got to 2016, we were just exhausted with trying. I think we were both still stuck in our fantasy of what we thought the other person should be.'

Jada said she considered a legal divorce but could never go through with it.
