In another clip she talks about two serious relationships she had before Will that taught her some very important life lessons.
'I got cheated on, which really broke my heart. And then I cheated on someone that I really cared about,' she confessed. 'And I had to tell you: me cheating on someone was more devastating than me being cheated on.'
'It actually taught me to forgive when I got cheated on because I understood; what I understood most was that it didn't have anything to do with me.'

'What are the alternatives to divorce?' the Bad Moms star asked the therapist. 'Everybody thinks as soon as you find out there’s been an affair you have to get a divorce'
Jada turns to the guest therapist for some professional thoughts and advice surrounding infidelity.
'What are the alternatives to divorce?' the Bad Moms star asks. 'Everybody thinks as soon as you find out there’s been an affair you have to get a divorce.'
Perel said she is not a person who subscribes to that persuasion.
'I think there are many relational betrayals; contempt and neglect, and violence and indifference, and nobody tells people to leave and get the hell out,' she said.
She went on to say that she believes there is added pressure on women to leave following some form of infidelity.
'God forbid you would still love the person who actually cheated on you. Maybe that person is a lot of things and cheated on you.
'See that's real talk,' Jada said as she and her mother nodded in agreement.

In the video, Will can be seen confronting his wife who is sitting in the driver's seat of a $245,000 car.
'What are you doing"' he asks with a big 'gotcha' smile on his face.
'No, no, no, get out of this car right now,' he playfully asks his lady.
