Will Smith’s Son Not Seeking Emancipation
Published at(LONDON) — Will Smith’s son isn’t looking to put some distance between himself and his parents, despite a new report claiming otherwise.
Jaden turns 15 in July, and Britain’s The Sun has published a report stating he wants to move out of his dad Will and mom Jada Pinkett Smith’s home for his birthday.
Will Smith is quoted by the newspaper as saying, “He says, ‘Dad, I want to be emancipated.’ I know if we do this, he can be an emancipated minor, because he really wants to have his own place, like ooh. That’s the backlash. On the other side, if kids just want to have command of their lives, I understand.”
Will’s rep denies the story to GossipCop.com, saying, “This isn’t real.”
Will and Jaden star in the new movie After Earth, opening May 31.
