Her castmate, Sterling K. Brown, recently talked to Entertainment Weekly and revealed, ‘Every once in a while, Ben would read the lines for Smith,’ referencing to one of the characters.

‘And I think the newlyweds, still very much in love, I think she just wanted to hear his voice,’ he added.

However, during a press conference in Mexico on Wednesday, a reporter asked the star point blank about the split rumors, and asked her if the speculation was ‘real.’
