Will Smith Jada Pinkett cleared after an investigation from child protection services is now making headlines. The couple has been investigated by child protection services after a controversial photo of Willow Smith, their youngest child, became viral in May. In the photo, the 13-year-old Smith was with a 20-year-old actor Moises Arias. After weeks of investigation, the couple Will Smith Jada Pinkett cleared.
According to the New York Daily News, Will Smith Jada Pinkett cleared happened after being investigated by the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services. The investigation occurred after a controversial photo of daughter Willow and Arias appeared online.
A DCFS source told RadarOnline.com: "No evidence presented that Willow has ever been in any danger around Moises or that she has ever been physically or emotionally abused."
The black-and-white photo was posted on Arias' page Instagram page in May. It showed the Smith couple's daughter lying in bed with the former "Hannah Montana" cast. Because of Willow being only 13, the photo has roused interest and backlash over the parenting of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett.
NY Daily reports that what provoked the agency to hold an investigation is because of an anonymous tip to DCFS regarding "the welfare and safety of Willow, based on the contents of the photo", said a source.
Before the investigation and Will Smith Jada Pinkett cleared, the power couple have already voiced their support for their daughter.
42-year-old Jada reportedly told TMZ on May 8, "Here's the deal. There was nothing sexual about that picture or that situation. You guys are projecting your trash onto it. You're acting like covert pedophiles and that's not cool."
45-year-old Will has also defended his daughter and told the gossip site that Willow is "very mature" and "old enough to make her own decisions."
Clearly, the couple believes that the controversy was ridiculous and the photo just an artistic expression and innocent fun.
