Will Smith said in his speech, ‘The Richard Williams I portrayed in the film King Richard does everything possible to protect his family. The same is happening in my life. I am jumping with joy at the moment, also there to love and protect my people in life. I know what I’m doing. Even if people say something strange about you, then let it be said.
