Recently, Alexis Arquette criticized Will Smith and his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith, as “gay hypocrites” over their outspoken disapproval of the #OscarsSoWhite. In her comments, she alleged that Smith was having a homosexual relationship with Benny Medina and that Smith’s first marriage ended because his wife walked in on the two of them.

However, Sheree Fletcher, Smith’s ex-wife, says that just isn’t true.

Fletcher took to Facebook to post a video slamming the allegations, saying:

“Alexis Arquette, let’s just be clear, I don’t know you and you don’t know me. So for you to claim to have firsthand information as to why my marriage didn’t work out is completely out of line and I got to check you.

“Not only is it out of line but it’s absolutely NOT true and I am offended and I’m hurt that someone would be so malicious and reckless to use a lie and an untruth to prove a point. I’m not here to fight Will and Jada’s battle. They do not need me to do that. I’m here to set the record straight and let you know what happened to my marriage”

“My marriage didn’t end over any infidelity. I didn’t find Will in the bed with a man, and I didn’t find Will in the bed with a woman. It just didn’t happen! Will was straight in 1992 and he’s straight in 2016.”

Fletcher went on to say that the real reason she and Smith split was simply that they were not working well together: “Our marriage ended because we were so young. It was just a lot of responsibility especially at that age. I just didn’t have the tools. We didn’t have the tools to make it work. I left because I was unhappy, it’s really that simple. I left because I was unhappy and I’ve never had a gag order. I’ve never been paid to be silent. I know Will has a lot of money, but Will does not have enough money to take my voice away from me, to deprive me of my story. That wouldn’t happen. And I’m grateful for the relationship we have.”
