Will Smith, Jada Pinkett Smith not separating, says friend

Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith are not separating, according to a family friend.

Earlier today, reports surfaced that the couple have split after 13 years of marriage. However, a friend of the pair has denied the claims, saying that they are completely unfounded.

"100% not true... It's total bulls**t," the insider told Us Weekly of the separation.

In June, Jada said that spending time apart from her husband makes their relationship stronger, insisting that every couple needs to be alone every so often.

The 39-year-old previously laughed off claims that the two were separating in 2009.

"I've heard all the things - their marriage is not real, he's gay, she's gay, they swing," Jada said. "But at the end of the day, people have to believe what they have to believe. I'll tell you what, it's too hard to be in a pretend marriage. Life's too short for that one."

Will is currently being considered for the sci-fi remake Fantastic Voyage from producer James Cameron.
