If you are a Will Smith fan, you probably know who Sheree Zampino, his first wife — and mother of his oldest son, Trey — is. Smith, his current wife Jada Pinkett Smith, and Zampino have an amazing co-parenting relationship together that is the envy of blended families everywhere.
Currently, Zampino is an entrepreneur who started an online store, Sheree Elizabeth Boutique, which carries clothes, jewelry, and teeth jewelry. But just because she's been living a non-celebrity life doesn't mean she hasn't still been part of the Hollywood gossip mill.
For years, many people believed she had a daughter with her (now former) second husband, Terrell Fletcher, because of a picture that was taken of them with a young girl. There was never a public announcement, and Zampino never said she had another child, but the rumors have been swirling in the public for quite some time. If you do a quick internet search, multiple articles — including supposed biographies — mention Zampino's "daughter Jodie."
However, on this week's episode of the popular divorce podcast Splitting Upward, Zampino sets the record straight for the first time.
During the show, the co-hosts ask Zampio about the "daughter" she was photographed holding a few years back. Then, comes the surprise: Zampino reveals that wasn't her daughter at all. The baby she was holidng was Jodie Woods, the little sister of Jordyn Woods — a popular model and Kylie Jenner's notorious ex-BFF.
Zampino goes on to explain how she received hate mail when the public thought she was keeping a big secret when in reality, she was simply holding a friend's child.
So, you heard it here first: Zampino has one son and has never had another child, nor has she been trying to hide anything. It's just another reminder to not believe everything you see — or hear — especially if it's on the internet.
