The actor made headlines at the Oscars after hitting the comedian over a joke about his wife.
Will and Jada Pinkett Smith, who have been married for 24 years, have previously spoken publicly about their extra-marital romances.
That devotion, together with the public's struggle to understand his complex marriage, perhaps explains why the actor was riled by Wilson's comments at the Baftas."Jada and I talk about everything. We have never surprised one another with anything ever." But it wasn't their relationship status that Rock was mocking on Sunday. It was something more basic but potentially more painful than that - Jada's appearance.
What he might not have realised is that Jada has alopecia - an auto-immune disorder that causes hair loss.The on-stage altercation travelled around the world in seconds. Smith's short temper would come to define the entire 2022 ceremony. "I think a comedian's job to walk that line about what is acceptable about comedy," Wilson said after the Oscars.It is normal for awards hosts such as Ricky Gervais to poke fun at the stars in attendanceDirector Judd Apatow wrote in a since-deleted tweet: "He could have killed him. That's pure out-of-control rage and violence. They've heard a million jokes about them in the last three decades. They are not freshman in the world of Hollywood and comedy.
Rock, meanwhile, looked visibly shaken. But he dealt with the situation with remarkable presence of mind. Realising he'd just made Oscars history, he made light of what had just happened, commenting: "That was the greatest night in the history of television."
