In recent years, Jada Pinkett Smith and Will Smith have found themselves at the center of public scrutiny and jokes. This is partly due to Jada speaking out in various interviews regarding her relationship with her husband, Will. One of the most prominent platforms to weigh in on Jada Pinkett and her newly released memoir, Worthy, was Saturday Night Live (SNL). They featured a funny skit on their most recent episode. During SNL's "Weekend Update" segment on October 21, Michael Che interviewed Ego Nwodim, who portrayed Jada Pinkett Smith. The skit delved into the topic of her book tour and the countless revelations she's shared with the world since its promotion began. Nwodim, in character, humorously recalled a moment from her wedding, saying, "The day we got married, I knew there was going to be trouble. At our wedding, someone stood up and objected."

Che, intrigued by this revelation, asked, "Who was the person that 'objected'?" To which the fake Pinkett Smith responded "It was me. Yeah, it was me. Twenty-three years later, Will and I are still a unit. And it’s because we have learned that the secret to a successful marriage is never to go to bed happy." However, despite the occasional rumors and speculations surrounding their marriage, both have maintained that divorce is not an option for them. Instead, they choose to confront their challenges head-on and navigate the complexities of their relationship. In the skit, Nwodim's character humorously remarked, "If we got divorced, he could mess around and end up happy. And I can't have that."
