The Internet is burning up today with a report from In Touch that Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith have separated after thirteen years of marriage — a startling development if true, but one that’s being reported by a tabloid that erroneously claims on the regular that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are kaput (with a mandatory cover inset of Jennifer Aniston looking tan and victorious). TMZ rang up Pinkett Smith’s rep Karynne Tencer to get a confirmation or a denial, and instead, got this: “What? In Touch said that? I know nothing about this … Lord. I’m going back to bed.†Expect an official statement to People.com later today, after Tencer gets done eating Cheerios, doing her stretches, and checking her Facebook. [In Touch, TMZ]
