Alfonso Ribeiro Reflects on Friendship With Will Smith Decades After ‘Fresh Prince’

Will Smith recently said watching Alfonso Ribeiro giving everything during the production of their show The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air transformed Smith’s life. And during his sit-down on The Jennifer Hudson Show, Ribeiro explained his work ethic and reciprocated Smith’s admiration.

“It was wonderful to hear him say that, obviously,” Ribeiro told host Jennifer Hudson in the talk show’s March 13 episode. “Will is my brother for life. And our friendship and bond has now withstood the time of four or five decades. He’s absolutely the best. It felt great.”
