Tuesick Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith reportedly agree that the famous actor overreacted when he stepped on stage and slapped him Chris Rock during the Oscars.
The incident came after The Rock joked about Jada’s hair despite her being open about her struggle with alopecia, a hair loss disease.
“It’s healing season and I’m here for it,” Jada recently wrote on Instagram.

US Weekly reported that the couple discussed the incident and agreed that Smith should not have overreacted at the gala.
“It was in the heat of the moment and he overreacted,” an unnamed insider said.
“He knows it, she knows it. They agree that he overreacted.
“She is not the kind of woman who needs to be protected. He didn’t need to do what he did, she didn’t need to protect. She is not quiet.
“She is a strong woman, a confident woman, and she can fight her own battles. But she will support him.”
Smith will reportedly seek professional help to manage stress after spending some time in a rehab clinic.
