    Will Smith, who has been separated from his second wife and two youngest children’s mother, actress Jada Pinkett Smith , since 2016, shared his own bit of advice with a deeper meaning. He said, “It’s impossible to make a person happy.” It’s reported that Smith shared a similar message to fans in his 2021 memoir, ‘ Will .’ However, in his sit-down, he further advised, “Don’t even play the game and don’t try to have a person make you happy.”
