Family Feud: Jada Pinkett Smith Rejects Jaden Smith’s Fiancée Sab Zada, Questions his shocking engagement to her despite her opposition and Vows to Block Wedding by saying “Over my dead body and I’ll…see more

“At 15 years old, Jaden, and I remember this day specifically, it’s probably one of the most heartbreaking moments of my life. You got to a point where you told me straight up, you were like, ‘Mom, I have to leave here to live my life.’ I remember thinking to myself, as devastated as I was, I was like, ‘He’s right. The time is now. He’s 15. It’s time for him to leave the house.’”
