Jada Pinkett Smith poses with her singer daughter Willow and her mother Adrienne Banfield Jones in a touching family portrait for Redbook magazine.
While the trio are obviously close, the family has had some difficult times in the past with Adrienne being a former drug addict who struggled to raise Jada as a single mother.
In the latest issue of Redbook, Jada & her family open up about their family dynamic:
Adrienne told Willow: ‘I had mommy when I was very young and then I got addicted to drugs after mommy was born.
‘It was a very difficult time for us growing up with her and Jada did not have the kind of life that you have now.
‘I was on drugs until your mom was like 17 or 18-years-old. That’s a long time.’
Adrienne never reveals what type of drugs she used, although it should be that noted that Jada drew up in Baltimore in the 1980’s at the height of the American crack cocaine epidemic.
