Will and Jada: Victim to the Hollywood curse? Smiths call it quits

RELAX!

They are just separated for now, according to a "close source." Reps of the famous couple have not given any information regarding the split.

Is it true, though?

MSNBC says that, "RadarOnline.com is reporting that a family member says news of a split is not true. "They're happy and married still," the unidentified family member said."

A rumor like this could cause a split in itself. How awful.

Via Twitter:

Willow has not had any tweets since August 19th.

Jada Pinkett Smith's most recent tweet was yesterday:

@Jadapsmith Jada Pinkett Smith
Do Mondays ever make you want to scream :)

Jaden (youngest son) last tweeted:

@officialjaden Jaden Smith
Just Got Home #Shhh Don't Tell My Mom #ShesToReal

However, Trey, their oldest son tweeted:

@TheOfficialTrey Trey Smith
Did #WillandJada split? No they did NOT split ! False information ..its not true RETWEET!!!

NOTE** Trey's twitter is not verified, so I am not exactly going to take that as a reliable source.

Looking through their Timelines, there is no indication of any kind of trouble.

I'm sure we will find out more by tonight. I will keep updating!

EXCLUSIVE VANITY FAIR INTERVIEW: After four failed marriages, JLO says, "I still believe in love."

Wow. Great make up! What brand is that? Airbrush? Ok, sorry. Moving on...

Jennifer Lopez had her first interview with Vanity Fair since the split, which will be on Newstands next week.

So what caused the Hollywood power couple to split?

Essentially, she claims that she was not looking out for herself enough. She was jeopardizing her own happiness for the sake of her family.

"It’s not that I didn't love myself before... Sometimes we don't realize that we are compromising ourselves. To understand that a person is not good for you, or that that person is not treating you in the right way, or that he is not doing the right thing for himself – if I stay, then I am not doing the right thing for me," said the 42-year-old in her recent Vanity Fair interview.

Regardless of the failure of her last marriage (and the three prior), Lopez still believes in love and she still believes that true happiness is attainable.

"Sometimes it doesn’t work – and that's sad. But I remain an eternal optimist about love. I believe in love."

Lopez claims that she really wanted her family to stay together, she really wanted her relationship to work. However, some things are inevitable.

"I loved myself enough to walk away."

Lopez also says, "everything is ramping up in a way. Like I said, we had the first three years of our marriage just for us. I wasn't working, it was mainly about him. Then we got pregnant. Then it became about the kids. And then I started working again."

Is it just me... or is she basically saying "the relationship wasn't about ME enough?"

What about the kids?

Now she is looking forward to focusing on her relationship with her children. Despite the American Idol Judge's hectic life, she refuses to hire a nanny. If she can't look after her kids, she will ask family and friends to do it. "It's [not] for me," Lopez says of hiring a nanny.

As far as her and her current relationship with Marc, they have remained civil. Even though they will not be connected by marriage, she is still confident in what they accomplish as a duo. They work well together. Lopez even states, "...together we make magic."

Jennifer Lopez: Serial Wifey

Now that we all know that the "perfect couple" have split, let's look back on the lives of Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony.

Some would say JLO is a "serial wife." Marriage is not something she is a stranger to. Her marriage to Marc Anthony was her third (NOT including her engagement to Ben Affleck). However, it was her longest, so that has to account for something!

After seven years of marriage, the couple released this statement to People magazine on July 15, 2011:

"We have decided to end our marriage. This was a very difficult decision. We have come to an amicable conclusion on all matters. It is a painful time for all involved and we appreciate the respect of our privacy at this time."

Lopez's first marriage was in 1997 to Miami waiter, Ojani Noa. Even though they divorced in 1998, he remained relevant in her life until 2009 for a plethora of reasons; some good, but mostly bad.

In 2001, after their divorce, their platonic relationship enabled Lopez to hire Noa as the manager of her Pasadena restaurant Madre's. Unfortunately, he was fired in 2002, just a year after his hire, prompting him to sue Ms. Lopez, resulting in a confidentiality agreement.

In 2006, Lopez sued Noa who planned on publishing a book that contained intimate details of their short marriage, claiming it violated the terms of their confidentiality agreement. She was awarded $545,000 in the case.

FINALLY, in 2009, Noa planned to release a film called, "How I Married Jennifer Lopez: The JLo and Ojani Noa Story," which was said to contain "home video footage." Once again, Lopez claimed it was a violation of her privacy as well as breaking their confidentiality agreement.

Whew. Enough of this guy.

Now we have her marriage to her back up dancer, Cris Judd, which lasted a whole nine months; from September 2001, to June 2002.

Her 2002 engagement to Ben Affleck (which is ironic seeing as she just divorced Judd), was called off in January of 2004, despite the six-carat pink diamond ring worth a reported $1.2 million. To this day, I still believe that the movie "Gigli," which they acted together in, has something to do with the end of their engagement. Why? Watch the movie and see for yourself. That's if you can finish it without pulling your hair out.

Now, these relationships mentioned above were marriages and an engagement. That does not include her steamy relationship with Sean Combs (also known as Diddy), which lasted two and a half years. That relationship ended following a shooting at Club New York in Midtown Manhattan that involved Diddy and his entourage. Lopez got so scared that she decided to call it quits. So much for being "Jenny from the block..."

So, what now?

Lopez and Anthony had twins together, 3-year-old Max and Emme. Who will have custody? They claim that this was a clean split. Hopefully, they will maintain their tolerance of each other for the children's sake!
