At the time, Ayesha was reflecting on how she feels about the near-constant female attention her NBA player husband gets.

Jada Pinkett Smith's successful Facebook Watch series, Red Table Talk came to an unexpected end earlier this year after the social media platform cancelled all of its programming. Reactions to the news were mixed, with some expressing sadness over no more interviews from The Matrix actress and their favourite celebrities while others, such as Nick Cannon, suggested that the Will Smith and Chris Rock beef at the 2022 Oscars may have had something to do with it. Regardless, it certainly won't be the last we'll see of Jada on our screens, though some past guests aren't hesitating to shade her years after their own sit-down on the show.

Ayesha Curry, for one, had plenty to say during her recent interview with Insider. The basketball wife is the cover star of the publication's latest digital issue, and she made it clear that she's not as insecure or "crazy" as editing on the internet show made her sound. "Stephen is very nice by nature and he’s very talkative," the fashionista said of her NBA star husband at the time. "Everything is always very friendly and sometimes to the point where I’m like, I’m a grown woman so I’ll just insert myself. I’ll be like, 'Hello. How are you doing?'"

"The ladies will always be lurking, hoping for their moment and waiting. But for me, I honestly hate it," Curry further added. Looking back on the moment now, the 34-year-old asserted, "It's not what I said, and the context was weird. Yeah. I took that one personally."

Elsewhere in her conversation with Insider, Ayesha discusses her decision to begin therapy following the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as stepping away from the spotlight. Rather than acting and making public appearances, she's now been pouring into charity work and entrepreneurship. Her lifestyle company, Sweet July, aims to uplift fellow Black and women-owned small businesses.
