Will Smith remains thankful as he celebrates Willow Smith turning 22. She is the youngest member of the Smith family, with a 24-year-old brother, Jaden. At a tender age, the actress appeared with her father in the 2007 movie I Am Legend. Now all grown up, she is focused on her music career.

The Whip My Hair singer stood by her father after his Oscars 2022 debacle. When the whole world criticized his actions, the Smith family stayed together despite any differences. So he missed no chance, and the Emancipation actor poured his heart out on Instagram, as his only daughter turned a year older this year.
