Jada Pinkett Smith and husband Will Smith have lived what she says are "completely separate lives" since 2016.

Pinkett Smith made the revelation in a interview with Hoda Kotb.

The prominent Hollywood couple married in 1997 and have addressed separations and marital troubles.

But never this specifically.

Though it's not a legal divorce, Pinkett Smith told Kotb in a clip released Wednesday that it is essentially a divorce without papers.

Smith and Pinkett Smith share two children, Willow and Jaden, as well as a son, Trey, from Smith's first marriage.

Representatives for the actors did not immediately respond to request for comment.
