BACKGRID
Will Smith and Jada Pinkett put on a united front as they stepped out in public together for the first time since the Oscars slap — and hubby was leading the charge with a smile.
The couple was spotted leaving Nobu in Malibu Saturday afternoon, with what appeared to be handler trailing them. Will was ahead of Jada — wearing a casual outfit and a cap — who was following closely behind … apparently grabbing a hold of his shirt or pants.
It looks like she might’ve been grabbing his hand in some of these shots … but upon closer inspection, you can see she’s got him by his clothing and letting him guide her to their car.
Eventually, they got in their vehicle and drove off together … with WS in the driver’s seat. Before that, though, Will actually flashed a peace sign to a spectator who called his name. So, yeah … it appears he’s maintaining a good mood — this after his recent apology video.
You’ll recall … Will explained his actions that night, saying Jada’s eye-roll did not fire him up and spur him to storm the stage — it sounds like it was just built-up bad blood between the Smiths and Chris Rock that led to it … plus some internal trauma Will has from his past.
He said he wanted to talk with Chris — but noted CR hasn’t taken him up on that … and may not in the long run. In the meantime, Will’s getting a move on with his life — as is Jada.

The fact the dude is out and about in daylight — in L.A., no less — says a lot about where he is personally … and that seems to be in a much better place.
Don’t expect to see him at any awards shows, though, in the near future.
