Will Smith makes up feud with ‘Aunt Viv’ after 27 years and can …

The cast members of the Fresh prince of Bel-Air held a reunion last Wednesday to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the hit sitcom. There was also a surprise: Both actresses who Aunt Viv were in attendance for the special episode. This is remarkable because Will Smith had a feud with Janet Hubert, the first Vivian Banks, for years. Things did not work out between the two actors, so Hubert was replaced in 1993. In the Facebook Watch series Red Table Talk they went deeper into their feud, which led to emotional moments.

“He was young, had a lot of power and his behavior got completely out of hand,” says Janet Hubert, who spent the first three seasons in the shoes of the mother at the Banks house. She said she wanted to end up on a professional set and, above all, wanted respect for being the oldest actress on stage. But she didn’t get that.

“In the end I was banned from the show”, says Hubert. “They told me it was because of you, Will. Because I didn’t laugh with your jokes. I had to stay in my box during recordings. I became bitter and stopped talking to any person. It was a terrible time. Sometimes I sat aimlessly in my car all night. I didn’t want to go to work and I didn’t want to go home. ”

The episode of Red Table Talk Only got really emotional when Hubert testified about the hate messages she received after she left. Smith did not keep it dry when he heard the baby boy Aunt Viv had to hear his mother was a bitch. “I was also called names,” added Hubert. People asked me on Instagram why I wasn’t dead. “We love Will, just die,” I was told. It was hard. I was just a black bitch, he was the star. ”

Smith hit mea culpa and admitted that he wasn’t always the best on set and well behaved. “I paid little attention to sensitivities. And I just wasn’t friendly either. It is also true that your role was reduced due to my actions. ” However, he claimed he was unaware of the pay cut that Hubert got after the ‘Fresh prince’ season 3, which led to her departure. The two have now decided to bury the hatchet for good and sealed that promise with a hug.
