Janet Hubert Says Karma Is Why Will Smith’s Children Are Highly Criticized, But Insists She Wants to Make Peace
After 21 years, Janet Hubert AKA The Original Aunt Viv is ready to end her feud with Will Smith. Janet played Aunt Viv to Will Smith’s character on the ‘Fresh Prince of Bel-Air’ for three seasons (1990-1993) before being replaced by Daphne Maxwell Reid. There are conflicting stories as to why she was replaced (she says she was fired, NBC says she violated her contract) but Hubert has been very vocal about her experience resulting in a very public feud between her, Smith and NBC.
In 2011, the entire cast attended a reunion dinner sans Hubert, who told TMZ:
There will never be a reunion … as I will never do anything with an a**hole like Will Smith, he is still an egomaniac and has not grown up. This constant reunion thing will never ever happen in my lifetime unless there is an apology, which he doesn’t know the word.
In a very recent turn of events, Hubert (who slammed Wendy Williams in an open letter days ago) has confessed that she is tired of fighting. In an recent interview she stated:
..we need to heal this. You’ve done some things, you’ve said some things, that were totally untrue and you know that they were untrue. I’ve said some things that I probably should have never said. But you’ve never heard them come from my mouth. Especially the TMZ thing last Christmas; my Mom passed away. So there I was again in the media getting beaten up…and you get tired. I’m tired. Aren’t you tired Will?
When asked is she would do a reunion this time around she stated:
“Absolutely.”
She also talked about Willow and Jaden Smith being children in the public eye:
Karma is a monster. My heart breaks from some of the comments that people make about his children. And for the damage that you may have done to someone else, your children may suffer… for your legacy.
Maybe time does heal all wounds. Will Smith and other cast members which includes Tatyana Ali of BET’s Second Generation Wayans have yet to comment. The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air ended in 1996.

Janet Hubert needs to stop she’s about a 1000 years old tell the nurse to stop reading her the paper and there is shuffleboard game waiting!!!
She’s 57, and one day you will be too, and if you heard someone say this about you you’d smack that bitch, just like you need a smack.
Who has she been fighting for all of these years? The only person that continues to talk about what happened is her.
Her problem; Hubert’s is that she will never come to the truth; the nature of a sexuality she does not approve of.
This is downright sickening how much she brings up this in her life, ALL the time. When she was fired from the show, she truly never recovered and at every turn she brings up this old, tired dead beef. She must HEAL and move forward and may be new opportunities will come her way..
All of her comments are the same thing and very backhanded. He should keep ignoring her because she is not going to bring anything positive.
She wants to heal and stop the fighting but said his kids are targets because of him. You’re not ready Janet, take ur happiness stop sitting around expecting it to be handed to you. My motto ~~» #Live #Learn #Love #Laugh
Wow, it’s May 9th and she’s still slamming people. It’s sad but clearly she’s came decide if she’s coming or going. PS: She will never get invited to do a reunion. Ever. So she squash that thought.
Nobody is criticizing Will Smith’s kids. They’re pretty popular with a large fan base. The only one who’s being criticized is Janet Hubert. Making a damn fool of herself.
Actually people are kinda criticizing Jaden and Willow. She has every reason to be upset because Will Smith did destroyed her career
Wow… I wonder if she realizes how vindictive and bitter she sounds. I don’t think anyone missed her when she left the show. Her role was the least important. Will, Phil, Carlton, Hillary, Ashley & Jeffery (I think that’s everyone) were all more important to the show. I also think this feud is really one-sided. Clearly Will Smith does not think she mattered much since the cast did a reunion without her and nobody really cared.
Bitch needs some therapy & some medication!
She need to get a life people get fired, laid off, let go & replaced in every professional career.
Yallz crayz rock smokin’ b*tchz. Aunt Viv 1 wuz > Aunt Viv 2 in every way. And Will Smiffs kidz is dumber than his rhymes. His whole career was an appeal to WITE peeplz…cept Bad Boys…shyt wuz dope.
dont forget that its the media who keeps bringing these old memories up. Until that day Janet has no choice because she is forced to talk about it. I hope someday they can all squash the beef turkey and reunite for once in honor of James Avery
Janet, shame on you. You brought the kids into it. It’s not just about the Smith’s it’s about all actresses. Shame on you for still being so spiteful.
One minute, she’s saying that she wants to end the feud. The next, she’s bringing Will’s kids into the mix. Now, that’s just asking for trouble.
