Will Jada Divorce

Katy and Russell, Kim and Kris, Heidi and Seal. We don't want to sound like alarmists, but given the rate at which celebrity couples split, we often wonder who's next.

Even the New York Times is in on the speculation, offering up a scientific formula to predict which celebrity couples are most likely to divorce.

Which couple do you think will split next? Below, a list of famous couples whose marriages are rumored to be on the rocks. Click through the slideshow below and tell us which pairs you think are still happily married and which are headed for a Hollywood divorce.

  • Will Smith And Jada Pinkett-Smith

    Should we be worried for the Smith's 14-year marriage? After the <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/08/23/will-smith-jada-pinkett-separating_n_933951.html#s336458" target="_hplink">couple shut down divorce rumors</a> in the summer, reports emerged in February 2012 that Jada Pinkett-Smith had met with <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/01/04/will-smith-jada-pinkett-s_n_1183990.html" target="_hplink">powerhouse divorce lawyer Laura Wasser</a>. Then, in what seemed like a response to the rumors, the actress used her Facebook to <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/02/15/jada-pinkett-smith-burn_n_1279742.html" target="_hplink">release a steamy ballad dedicated</a> to Smith a month later. Earlier this month, Pinkett-Smith fielded French magazine <em>Gala</em>'s questions about <a href="http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20586498,00.html" target="_hplink">where the speculation came from</a>: "I have no idea! Every year, one celebrity couple is under the microscope. This year, unluckily, it's us! I almost want to say that we should have been expecting it," she said.

  • Khloe Kardashian Odom And Lamar Odom

    Is Khloe Kardashian Odom and Lamar Odom's marriage bound to go the way of Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries'? The couple has certainly been put through the wringer lately, with <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/01/30/lamar-odom-confesses-to-khloe-kardashian-hes-jealous-kourtney-pregnant-again_n_1241623.html" target="_hplink">their much publicized struggle to conceive</a> and Lamar being traded to (and subsequently leaving) the Dallas Mavericks. In light of that, it's little wonder the tabloids single them out as <a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/2012/04/12/khloe-kardashian-lamar-odom-dallas-mavericks-basketball/" target="_hplink">split-bound</a>. Still, it seems like Kardashian has the right idea. The reality star recently announced that she and Odom would be <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/05/03/khloe-kardashian-divorce-not-an-option_n_1474029.html" target="_hplink">putting their E! show, "Khloe & Lamar" on hold</a> so that they could "prioritize a little."

  • Gwen Stefani And Gavin Rossdale

    In January 2012, <em>Star </em>magazine reported that Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale had <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/01/26/gwen-stefani-gavin-rossda_n_1234798.html" target="_hplink">begun attending couples counseling in the hopes of saving their 10-year marriage</a>. The reason their rockstar union was reportedly on the rocks? Rossdale's jealousy over his wife's fame and Stefani's discomfort with her his past, the tabloid claimed. The next month, Stefani addressed the split rumors in <a href="http://www.accesshollywood.com/gwen-stefani-talks-split-rumors-and-the-benefit-of-annoying-paparazzi_article_59966" target="_hplink">an interview with "Access Hollywood:"</a> "It doesn't matter -- you could have a picture that has nothing to do with what's going on in a rumor and they make it look like it's part of the rumor."

  • Bethenny Frankel And Jason Hoppy

    Reality star Bethenny Frankel and husband Jason Hoppy have dodged divorce rumors throughout their two-year marriage, some even <a href="http://www.radaronline.com/exclusives/2011/10/bethenny-frankel-divorce-mom-says-bernadette-birk" target="_hplink">perpetuated by Frankel's own mother</a>. In March 2012, <a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/2012/03/28/jason-hoppy-bethenny-frankel-moves-out/" target="_hplink"><em>In Touch</em> magazine alleged</a> that things had gotten so bad between Frankel and Hoppy that he'd left their New York City apartment to stay in a nearby hotel. The star of the Bravo series "Bethany Ever After" addressed the speculation in a <a href="http://www.bravotv.com/bethenny-ever-after/season-3/blogs/bethenny-frankel/buckle-up" target="_hplink">blog post in March 2012</a>: "I know you have all been worried about my relationship, and the show got off to an emotional rocky start, but isn't life like that? Sometimes we cringe, sometimes we get anxiety, but ultimately, we buckle up, hold on, and get to the next place.

  • Tori Spelling And Dean McDermott

    She's pregnant with their fourth child, but a recent <em>Star </em>magazine article claimed that Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott are on the <a href="http://www.hollywoodlife.com/2012/05/02/tori-spelling-dean-mcdermott-divorce/" target="_hplink">brink of separation</a>, with a source reportedly claiming that the couple "have already separated three times." But a <a href=" http://www.gossipcop.com/tori-spelling-dean-mcdermott-divorce-separated-split-2012/" target="_hplink">rep for the actress told Gossip Cop</a> that the claims are "not true."

  • Tom Cruise And Katie Holmes

    Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes have long dealt with tabloid rumors that their marriage is a farce, a <a href="http://www.popsugar.com/Tom-Cruise-Oprah-Winfrey-1598034" target="_hplink">claim that Cruise called "laughable"</a> in a 2008 interview with Oprah. In March 2011, the rumors continued, with the <em>National Inquirer </em>alleging that Katie Holmes had "been living such a tortured life" with husband Tom Cruise that friends were "<a href="http://www.gossipcop.com/katie-holmes-divorce-tom-cruise/" target="_hplink">urging the actress to get a divorce</a>." A rep for Holmes said the story was "untrue."

  • Kendra Wilkinson And Hank Baskett

    In January 2011, former Playboy playmate <a href="http://www.people.com/people/article/0,,20455898,00.html" target="_hplink">swatted down rumors</a> that her marriage to football player Hank Baskett was on the rocks. But in an October 2011 episode of E!'s "Kendra," Baskett recalled hitting <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/10/04/kendra-wilkinson-on-divor_n_995155.html" target="_hplink">"the absolute bottom" </a>with his wife after an intense argument where the subject of divorce was brought up. Meanwhile, Wilkinson admitted to using the "D-Word" twice in past arguments with Baskett, but added that she'll never utter the word again. Instead, she said she swaps in alternatives when the conversation calls for it: "'F*** you,' or 'I hate you.' Profanity is preferable to the 'D-Word,'" she explained.

I have insomnia, so this should put me to sleep....I don't know anything about these people's relationships, but I'd guess Will Smith and Jada will get divorced because Jada is a b*tch; not sure about Chloe and Lamar, but since she's not the most popular with the boys, and he's not the greatest basketball player, they may actually stay together, even though the marriage was a too quick; Gwen Stefanie isn't especially talented and her inflated ego is probably tough to live with, so I'll say divorce; the real housewife chick is about as annoying as they come, so I'll bet she'll be divorced; Dean McDermott has that beady-eyed narcissistic look, so I'm guessing he'll get caught banging the help, but who knows if Tori will file; Katie was too young to get married and she'll outgrow Tom, so definite divorce; and last but not least, Hank is way too good for Kendra and unless she gets her act together (not sure that's possible), someday he'll realize this. Again, divorce....Zzzzzzz....

I'm eating Apple Jacks. I figure that's about important news wise as this story is. Maybe more important even.

I say, Tom and Katie will end in divorce. We all know that. I'm more confident with Hank and Kendra lasting forever.

In a long marriage people could grow in different directions. And that fine dance we need to manuver through carefully. We as a couple should never forget what was important to us from the beginning. After a few years of marriage we tend to take our spouse for granted and that ushers in new problems. Marriage is the hardest thing we will every attempt. Just ask those that have tired and failed.

I like y our response. Yes, people change, but if you and your partner always remember what brought you together in the first place, AND remind each other, often, how lucky you were to have been selected by the other, AND your marriage remains a we, us and our life instead
of an, I, me and myself, there is a whole new experience in life awaiting you after being married 50+ years. Full of excitement, loving and fun. I feel sorry for those who never reach this stage in their short life here on earth. Just my thoughts. The best to all of you.

What a hideous thing to vote on...geez.
11:07 AM on 05/06/2012
Not only is it tasteless and cruel to turn marriages/divorces into a kind of contest, but the headline for this story, 'Will Smith Divorce,' is deliberately misleading, since it implies that the Smiths have already started divorce proceedings. This is trash journalism at its worst.

Will Smith stated years ago that when he wants to sleep with another woman, he has to first tell his wife- that is how their marriage works. That is really messed up, and that will not work out in the end. That is not respecting your wife. Of course, it is supposed to work both ways, with her tellling him that she is lusting after another, but you know who is on more movie sets and who is home with the kids more often.

Will and Jada hit serious problems. You could never shut them up about their great marriage, overstating about their sex life. This past year all the talk about their marriage hitting the skids and they went quiet. They seem to have survived whatever happened, but for some reason I have a feeling they've entered into an open marriage to stay together and when the kids are grown we'll see a split.

What a great example to set for their children. A sorry state of affairs.

Huffingtonpost i think you are being a tad cynical with this article. You don't know what's going on in those celebrities marriages and i believe it's dangerous to run such stories.
10:13 AM on 05/05/2012
So now it's entertainment to guess what celebrity couple will divorce next? Some of these couples have children. But to Huffpo, this is entertainment. They're not zoo animals.
