'We are still together': Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith, pictured here in Hawaii last month, have denied split rumours

Will Smith has denied reports his marriage to Jada Pinkett Smith is over.

The 49-year-old Men In Black star released a statement to the press via his publicist after a report in America's In Touch Weekly magazine claimed the pair had separated.

It read: 'Although we are reluctant to respond to these types of press reports, the rumours circulating about our relationship are completely false. We are still together, and our marriage is intact.'

The comment came several hours after Jada denied having affair with her Hawthorne co-star, Marc Anthony.

The 39-year-old addressed industry whispers of a liaison with Jennifer Lopez's ex husband, who joined her TV show as a love interest last year.

'All the rumours regarding Marc Anthony and Jada are false. Completely untrue,' Jada's spokesperson, Karynne Tencer, said. 'As for [the reports of a split between] Will and Jada, I'm not commenting on their personal life.'

A representative for Anthony also addressed the rumours, saying: 'We unequivocally deny this. Enough is enough. There are families involved, children involved, friendships involved. This is NOT true.'

The Latin star, 42, split from Lopez last month after seven years. They are parents to twins Emme and Max, 3.

In Hawthorne, Jada plays widowed chief nursing officer Christina, who juggles the demands of her career with bringing up a teenage daughter. She is also an executive producer the show.

Anthony was initially introduced as a guest star playing police detective Nick Renata, but is now a series regular. He also serves as the show's executive music producer.

Will's son was the first to defend the Hollywood power couple, who married in 1997.

Trey Smith, 18, who is the actor's child from his first marriage, tweeted today: 'Will and Jada getting a DIVORCE .. NOT TRUE AT ALL !!'

He later added: #Did #WillandJada split? No they did NOT split ! False information ..its not true RETWEET!!!'

The pair, who earned £20 million between them last year alone, have two children together - Jaden, 13, and Willow, ten.

Will, 40, has been divorced before. He split from Trey's mother - former fashion design student Sheree Zampino in 1995 - after three years together.

Will and Jada first met in 1990 when she auditioned for the his girlfriend on his hit TV show, The Fresh Prince.

And they certainly showed no signs of trouble during their interview with Architectural Digest magazine only weeks ago, in which they opened the doors of their luxury Malibu home and happily posed for an intimate family photo shoot.

When describing the layout of the 25,000sq ft house, Will gushed that it had been designed with no 'dead ends… to create an infinite cycle that represented what Jada and I hoped for our love'.

Jada also told the magazine: 'We wanted to create a family retreat, something made by hand and as natural as possible, something that ties back to the land.'
