One day after his outburst at the 2022 Oscars, Will Smith took to Instagram to issue an apology to Chris Rock, whom Smith slapped in the face at the ceremony. "Violence in all of its forms is poisonous and destructive. My behavior at last night's Academy Awards was unacceptable and inexcusable,” he wrote.

Alas, Will’s wife Jada Pinkett Smith has kept mum following the incident — until now. On March 29, Pinkett Smith seemingly hinted at the Oscars altercation in a cryptic Instagram post that read, "This is a season for healing and I'm here for it."

Perhaps Pinkett Smith is also “here” for a round table discussion with both Will and Rock on her candid talk show, "Red Table Talk." One Twitter user predicted, "Chris Rock, Will Smith, and Jada gonna be on a Red Table Talk in two weeks to 'heal' this out."
