Jada Pinkett Smith has admitted it’s ‘hard’ to maintain her s.e.x life with her husband Will after decades of marriage.

The actress, 50, confessed she can feel ‘uncomfortable’ making the effort to stay intimate with her spouse, 53, and she ‘really tries’ to maintain communication with him.

Speaking on her Facebook Live series Red Table Talk with guest Gwyneth Paltrow, Jada said: ‘The thing Will and I talk about a lot is the journey. We started in this at a very young age, you know, 22 years old.’

‘That’s why the accountability part really hit for me because I think you expect your partner to know (what you need), especially when it comes to sex,’ she added.

‘It’s like, ”Well, if you love me, you should know. If you love me, you should read my mind.” That’s a huge pitfall.’

Gwyneth, who was a guest on the show to discuss her new Netflix series Sex, Love and Goop, added: ‘Isn’t it weird, though? It’s like someone doesn’t read your mind and we feel crushed.’

Jada, who married Will in 1997, added that she ‘really tries’ to communicate with Will about their s.e.x life.

She said: ‘It’s uncomfortable, but it’s deeply healthy and I think around s.e.x, because it’s something that we don’t talk about and there’s so much fantasy around it.’
