In her recent interview, Jada Pinkett divulged that Chris Rock called her one summer and asked her out on a date. This was during the time she was already married to Will Smith. However, there were false rumours about her divorce with Will, and Chris thought it was the perfect opportunity to ask her out.

Jada added that when she told Chris her divorce news was false, he was appalled and profusely apologised for misunderstanding the situation. This proposal of Chris reportedly did not go well with Will Smith, which may be one of the many reasons for the 2022 Oscar slap.
