Willow Smith has spoken out about her mum Jada Pinkett Smith having an affair with singer August Alsina and said that she is "so proud" of her. The 19-year-old daughter of Jada, 49, and Hollywood star Will Smith. 52, sat down for a Red Table Talk session on Facebook Watch and revealed her thoughts on her parents' marriage almost crumbling.

The teenager said that they were "the real deal" when they spoke about Jada having an "entanglement" with August and how Will felt about his wife being with another man.  Will and Jada said they were amid a private separation at the time, so it wasn't viewed as 'cheating' as their marriage was effectively over when Jada hooked up with 28-year-old August.
