Jada Pinkett Smith became emotional while recalling her past relationship with late rapper Tupac Shakur on the latest episode of her Facebook Watch series, “Red Table Talk.”
The 48-year-old host sat down with Robyn Crawford to discuss the guest’s new tell-all book, “A Song For You,” about her love affair with the late Whitney Houston. During the discussion, Crawford recalled a time in which Houston allegedly suspected her of sleeping with a backup dancer. In a fit of rage, she claims Houston tore up a Bible that the duo used to write messages to one another.
“I understood because of the complex relationship I’ve had with Pac,” Smith interjected. “In those moments of his, ‘Whose that?!’ knowing damn well there ain't nothing like that between us.”
