Will Smith’s wife Jada Pinkett Smith has confirmed she will address August Alsina’s affair allegations on her hit Facebook Watch series Red Table Talk.
Taking to Twitter, the actress wrote: “There’s some healing that needs to happen…so I’m bringing myself to The Red Table.”
Jada’s decision to speak out comes after singer August, 27, claims he and Jada had a 12-month fling, which Will gave her permission to undertake.
Last month, the Smiths were rocked after a Page Six article alleged that August had enjoyed a “years-long affair” with Jada, which Will had signed off on.
Jada’s representatives said it was “absolutely not true”.
A spokesperson for Will, 51, has also denied the claims simply saying they are “wrong”.

Speaking to US radio host Angela Yee, August went into detail about the alleged fling.
August claimed: “I actually sat down with Will [Smith] and had a conversation due to the transformation from their marriage to life partnership … he gave me his blessing.”
Going into detail, August added: “I totally gave myself to that relationship for years of my life, and I truly and really, really deeply love and have a ton of love for her.”

“I devoted myself to it, I gave my full self to it — so much so to the point that I can die right now and be okay with knowing that I truly gave myself to somebody.”
The star continued: “And I really loved a person, I experienced that and I know what that feels like — and some people never get that in this lifetime.
“I know that I am completely blessed and this conversation is difficult because it is so much, that it would be hard for people to understand but — once it starts to affect me and my livelihood — I have to speak up about my truth.”

Jada and Will first met in 1994 before falling in love and getting engaged two years later.
In 1999 Jada gave birth to their first child Jaden before giving birth to Willow in 2000.
Like their parents the kids have enjoyed a career in the spotlight.
