However, another insider described Will as “feeling much more confident and much more positive and less depressed.” And Smith’s apology video helped his mood. “He was in very low spirits prior to making his public apology,” explained the source. But in the wake of the video, Will “feels less ashamed now and more comfortable being out and about in public again.”
And work has helped the actor, according to the insider. “Because he has and continues to do the work that needs to be done for himself, his wife, his family, his friends, his colleagues, his fans, The Academy, Chris and Chris’ family.” However, Smith also wants to convey a message. And despite that slap, Will seeks to “ingrain the idea that violence is never the answer and show the public that he was wrong and is regretful. But all people make mistakes and that we are all human, despite the career you may have.”
