Will Smith, Jada Pinkett to divorce, celebrity attorney retained (50 photos)

HOLLYWOOD – Actors Will Smith and Jada Pinkett have been touted as one of the most happily married couples in Hollywood, however the Huffington Post is reporting that Pinkett has retained celebrity divorce lawyer, Laura Wasser to dissolve her marriage to Will after 14 years together.

It was in August when Us Weekly reported that Jada and singer Marc Anthony had an affair on the set of the TV series “Hawthorne.”  Anthony played the part of Detective Nick Renata who was Pinkett’s love interest on the show.  

Then singer Marc Anthony and Jennifer Lopez made a shocking statement that they would be getting a divorce. Anthony made several appearances on various TV shows to discuss his impending divorce Lopez. Sources on the set of “Hawthorne” told Us Weekly that Anthony and Pinkett were a bit too close between takes.

"They were a little touchy and like they were in their own little world," a source on the set told Us. It was also reported by Us the two spent a lot of time alone in Anthony’s on set trailer.

Since that incident, Will and Jada have denied the rumors and even issued a statement saying, "Although we are reluctant to respond to these types of press reports, the rumors circulating about our relationship are completely false. We are still together, and our marriage is intact."

However In Touch Weekly reported that not only has Jada retained a high profile divorce attorney, she also turned down a role in Keanu Reeves directorial debut to spend more time with her two children, Jaden and Willow during what she said is a “difficult time.” There is no word yet on who Will Smith will retain to represent him in the divorce.
