It’s not easy to be a teenager, but it’s even harder if this young person is a kid of famous people. But Willow carries this burden graciously. She creates her life and career with her own hands. And yes, she is very proud of her talented family.

Will Smith (father)

Date of birth: September 25, 1968

There’s no need to introduce Willow Smith father Will. Probably, his name is known to anyone on the planet. The man starred in numerous films, most of which became hits just because his name was written on the poster.

The talent of Willard Carroll Smith Jr is proved by a string of awards and nominations – he is a happy holder of Grammy, is an Oscar and Golden Globe nominee.

The actor was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He grew up in the family of an engineer (father) and a school teacher (mother). He has three siblings. When the future movie star was 13, his parents divorced. But that didn’t influence the teenager – Smith remained optimistic, humorous and full of energy.

Will was an A-grade student at a high school and got a scholarship into Massachusetts Institute of Technology, but he declined the offer as he didn’t plan to get college education. At that time Will had already fell in love with music. With the company of his friends he founded the band “DJ Jazzy Jeff & the Fresh Prince”. As the part of the band, Willow’s father got his first award – the Grammy.

He broke into television with the main role in the series “The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air”. Will looked very natural on the screen, probably, because the story of his hero resembled his own one. He depicted an ordinary boy from Philadelphia, who came to Beverly Hills. For this role the young actor got Golden Globe nomination. He proved his position of a Hollywood star in 1995, when he participated in the movie “Bad Boys”.

As for now, Will Smith is 49. He still holds position of a solid Hollywood star and talented singer. In addition, Mr. Smith gained reputation of a family man. He was married twice – to Sheree Zampino- Fletcher, an occasional actress, but they divorced after 3 years of marriage. In 1997 the actor went down the aisles for the second time – with an actress Jada Koren Pinkett. Till now they are in love with one another. Jada and Will built a strong creative family and gave a birth to Willow and her brother Jaden.

Willow Smith parents are involved into a number of charity activities. They care not just about their own kids, but also about children of other people –Smiths build schools and make donations to help those, who are not so lucky.

Jada Pinkett Smith (mother)

Date of birth: September 18, 1971

Willow Smith adores her father, but like any girl she is very close with her mother. Jada teaches her daughter not just to act and to sing, but also to be self-confident and to care about herself. Like a mother of three (she brought up her husband’s son from a previous marriage too), Jada knows, that it’s so hard to keep a balance between family life and self-realization.

Jada Pinkett grew up in the family, which had nothing in common with art. Her mother Adrienne was a nurse and father Robsol Pinkett was a builder. Her parents divorced, when Jada was very small, and from that moment she spent most part of her time with her grandmother in Maryland. She has a younger brother Caleeb Pinkett.

In her teen years Jada got interested in art. She convinced her mother to send her to Baltimore School for the Arts. There she met her first love – Lesane Crooks, who glorified his name as a rapper Tupac Shakur. He was tragically killed in late 1996.

Jada parted her way with Tupac much earlier his unexpected death. She dropped out college and went to LA to start career of an actress. She visited numerous auditions and at one of them met an actor Will Smith. He had already become a star, and a young unknown actress Jada looked at the celebrity with her eyes wide opened. Will fell in love with her and on the last day of 1997 they tied a knot. Not long ago the couple celebrated their 20^th anniversary – an unbelievable event for Hollywood. Will congratulated his better half through social media. He wrote, that he “was happy to help his wife blossom”.

The role of Will Smith wife is the main but not the only one in the woman’s life. She is also known by her roles in the films “Set It Off”, “The Matrix Reloaded”, “The Human Contract” (which she directed) and others. She launched her clothing line and released a book “Girls Hold Up This World”.

He was 3 years old, when his parents split. But Mr. Smith remained close with his son. Later Trey became the part of Will and Jada family. His father’s new wife accepted the boy with an open heart and made friends with him.

In fact, Jaden literally had no choice – he had been prepared to the work of an artist since the earliest age.
