Nepo baby Jaden Smith has been busted while partying overseas with friends, and sources say loved ones are worried he’s going off the rails now that he’s left the cocoon of his famous folks.
The young rapper was recently photographed sitting on a bench in Paris in the wee hours with a bong and a pal, per Daily Mail.
“It’s not a good look, especially as cannabis is illegal in France, where the law treats possession and use as a criminal offense,” warns an insider.

“Clearly, Jaden is heading in a dangerous direction. He was out at 3 a.m. in a foreign city partying his head off, and he’s spending a lot less time at home. And with his parents living separately and their marital situation up in the air, he’s probably avoiding them altogether!”
Jaden’s dad, Will Smith, 56, has been struggling to get his music comeback going, while mom Jada Pinkett Smith, 53, has been focusing on new projects following the cancellation of her Red Table Talk by Facebook Watch in April 2023.

According to sources, the couple has been living separate lives in separate homes for a while — and that’s not been good for Jaden, 27, or his sister, Willow, 24.
“Jaden’s a sensitive kid, more so than he would like to admit, and it’s difficult because his parents are not there to keep him in line,” says an insider.
“Jaden’s been spoiled his whole life, and now that they’ve completely let him off the leash, he’s making bad choices. After all these years of being cosseted and coddled, he’s making himself look foolish!”
