July 9, 2018 – Jada Pinkett Smith and her mom Adrienne Banfield-Jones got real about addiction in the latest episode of their Facebook Watch series, Red Table Talk. The mother-daughter duo have an honest conversation about the struggles of overcoming addiction and how Banfield-Jones has been sober for 27 years. The 64-year-old admits on the show that she struggled with drug use for over 20 years … “It’s difficult to talk about something that is gonna go out to the world,” Banfield-Jones says through tears at the beginning of the emotional episode. “I couldn’t hide the unmanageability of my life, and the emotional damage and the spiritual damage I did to myself and to her. That was devastating. I abused drugs for over 20 years.”
