Smith, who's still good friends with his ex-wife Sheree Zampino, wished her a happy birthday in 2018 by sharing a throwback photo of the two with their son on Instagram. Smith captioned the post, "Happy Bday, @shereezampino. #BestBabyMamaEver! :-) I Love You, Ree-Ree." Rock left a comment on the post — which later went viral — telling Smith, "Wow. You have a very understanding wife," referencing Pinkett Smith.
Though Smith didn't respond to Rock's comment about his wife, Zampino seemingly acknowledged it and wrote, "Awwwwwwwww…thank you baby daddy!!!!!! I love you back! And thank you @treysmith0011 for being the reason we came together. And to @jadapinkettsmith for being an understanding, secure, and absolutely AMAZING wife, mother, Bonus-mom, and Co-parenting partner!"
