Rick Ross has reacted to Jada Pinkett Smith‘s recent revelations about her marriage to Will Smith, admitting that she’s making him doubt whether he wants to tie the knot himself.
Rozay took to his Instagram Stories on Wednesday (October 18) to speak on Jada’s enlightening confessions, specifically that she and Will decided against signing a prenup when they got hitched in 1997.

The news has caused a bit of stir considering the sizeable gap in their respective net worths (Will is worth a reported $350 million, while Jada is believed to be worth around $50 million).
“At one time, we thought Will Smith and Jada was Shaq and Kobe,” Ross said, nodding to his recent single with Meek Mill. “Just on some red carpet, let’s get this money type shit. But how Jada Pinkett Smith moving, it don’t make you wanna really be that close with a woman.”

He continued: “It done really make you reconsider ever being married. Damn, baby. You talking about so much personal business. What’s your credit score? What’s your beacon score? We don’t believe you was worth $50 million.
“Nah, show it to us. Prove it to us. We don’t believe this shit. Now show us. Show us. Will, go home, Will. They called me Will growing up. Come on, Will. Make her go open you a Moon Pie.”
Jada Pinkett spoke about her and Will Smith’s lack of a prenup during an interview with Parade that was published last week as part of the press tour for her new memoir Worthy.
“Listen, weddings are beautiful, but they can be very romanticized,” she said. “I feel that was a very real moment for the two of us to look each other in the eyes, recognize that there would be tough times in this journey.

“And to say to each other, ‘No matter what, we’re going to figure it out and that’s why we don’t need a prenup, because I’m making a promise that divorce won’t be necessary, that we will figure this out.'”
She added: “And we made that promise to each other without all of the bridal wedding beauty; it was just sitting on a log in his mother’s backyard, and going, ‘Hey.’ Having to really look at the possibility of us not being together.”
Jada’s book tour has been filled with many more revelatory moments. Speaking to Today earlier this month, the 52-year-old revealed that she and Will Smith have been secretly separated for seven years, despite still being legally married.
She admitted the reason she didn’t come out and announce that they weren’t a couple anymore was because she was “not ready yet,” and was still trying to “figure how to be in partnership.”

She also said there were “a lot of things” that caused their marriage to dissolve, and by 2016 they both were “exhausted with trying” because they were “stuck in a fantasy of what the other person should be.”
Jada added that she promised to never get a divorce and hasn’t been able to break the promise, but she and Will Smith live separate lives.
