Returning to normal? Will Smith was spotted on a sushi date with wife Jada Pinkett Smith, the first public outing since the Oscars.
The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air alum, 53, was seen wearing a navy golf shirt with a matching baseball cap and trousers while leaving Nobu in Malibu, California. The Red Table Talk host, 50, was right behind Smith, keeping one hand on her husband’s back as she followed him to the car. She was wearing a black outfit with a red flannel shirt tied around her waist. Pinkett Smith topped off the look with sunglasses and hoop earrings.
Smith hasn’t made many public ventures since his March showdown with Chris Rock. During the ceremony, the 57-year-old comedian joked that Pinkett Smith — who married the Men In Black star in 1997 — should star in a G.I. Jane sequel due to her shaved head. (The Maryland native has been candid about her struggles with alopecia and hair loss.) Smith marched on stage and smacked Rock, 57, across the face.
“Will Smith just smacked the s—t out of me,” the South Carolina native said in censored footage that later circulated online. As Smith returned to his seat, he was heard yelling at Rock: “Keep my wife’s name out your f–king mouth.”
Moments later, the Philadelphia native won Best Actor for his role in King Richard.
The Concussion actor later issued an apology for his “unacceptable and inexcusable” actions, writing via Instagram in March, “I would like to publicly apologize to you, Chris. I was out of line and I was wrong. I am embarrassed and my actions were not indicative of the man I want to be. There is no place for violence in a world of love and kindness.”
He continued: “I would also like to apologize to The Academy, the producers of the show, all the attendees and everyone
