As claimed by some insider, reason behind Will Smith slapped Chris Rock was after the  of some ‘stupid gossip’ about his life with wife Jada Pinkett.

Updates about the act of King Richard actor where he got so upset over Rock’s J.I Jane joke was given by some very close source of couple

Source stated “Will and Jada have taken the high road when it comes to stupid ‘stupid gossip’ about polyamory and scientology, but they have felt more exposed these past few years and it’s taken its toll.”

Whereas at the same event, host Regina Hall also made fun of couple, by calling Hollywood’s actor on stage, she phrases “Will Smith, you’re married but you know what you’re on the list and it look like Jada approved you, so you get on up here.”

On the other side Will Smith smacked his Co-artist and host Chris Rock across the face for making fun at his wife Jada Pinkett Smith’s (Alopecia) medical condition. “Keep my wife’s name out of your f—–g mouth!” he said angrily.

However on Monday morning he apologized for his behavior.

In his Statement he said “Violence in all of its forms is poisonous and destructive. My behavior at last night’s Academy Awards was unacceptable and inexcusable,” Smith further said “Jokes at my expense are part of the job, but about Jada’s medical condition was too much for me to bear and reacted emotionally.”

“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,” he further said which was the first time the Oscar winner directly apologized to the man he hit. ”There is no place for violence in the world of love and kindness.”
