Here's What We Know About Willow And Jaden Smith's Relationship
Will Smith's family isn't exactly normal. Not only is he an award-winning Hollywood star, but his wife, Red Table Talk host Jada Pinkett Smith, is also a famous figure. As a result, their children, Jaden and Willow Smith, lead lives that make no sense to those who aren't a part of their celebrity circle. And while the younger Smiths' extraordinary existence is part of what makes it fun to ponder where the pair will end up in the future, it turns out that wherever they end up and whatever they get up to, they'll surely be rooting for each other. That's because this brother and sister share a unique relationship.
"It's crazy, the sibling dynamic," Willow told Interview in August 2016. "I could've spent my entire childhood like, 'I have to love this person.' And it becomes a chore. But our parents were never like, 'You have to love them.' It was more like, 'You have your life. He has his life. And when you guys want to come together, when you guys want to commune, that's up to you.'"
Willow continued by explaining that, perhaps because of this non-forced dynamic, they eventually realized, "Damn, you are the yin to my yang." In fact, she said that the relationship between herself and Jaden is so strong that they have a very special kind of connection.
Willow and Jaden Smith have a connection that's practically cosmic
Willow and Jaden Smith are two parts of "possibly the world's most wonderfully weird brother/sister duo," according to Teen Vogue. Indeed, there's no denying that together, their "collective persona famously fascinates, perplexes, and stirs up heated debate among adults who simply cannot get on their level," as the magazine pointed out.
Frankly, warranted or not, their high-profiles and bold behavior have apparently earned them "labels such as 'bizarre' and 'self-adoring.'" However, they don't seem to care about fitting in, and instead appear to let the comments "roll off their backs" while remaining to be unlike anyone else — except perhaps each other, which is likely one of the reasons why they're so close.
In fact, according to the famous sister, her relationship with her older brother goes beyond shared traits and can even be compared to a cosmic connection. "We're like binary stars, like two parts of one thing," she told Teen Vogue in April 2016. Willow went on to explain the bond she shares with her sibling, saying, "I know what he's thinking at all times. And he knows what I'm thinking. We're not identical twins, but it feels like that in a lot of ways."
