Will & Jada: sperate FOR CASH

The embattled couple scramble to stay afloat after a 1 billion deal falls through

- 

It was the calm before the storm. Two years ago, Will and Jada Pinkett Smith’s entertainment venture, Westbrook, was thriving. The production company behind the popular Facebook watch show Red Table Talk, Peacock’s Bel-Air, the Oscar-nominated film King Richard and a slew of series for major streaming services was doing so well, the couple hoped to sell it for $1 billion to the same company that bought Reese Witherspoon’s Hello Sunshine company, according to a new report on Semafor. But when Westbrook was valued at $600 million — almost half of what the Smiths were anticipating, claims the report — the deal fell apart.
