Smith also pondered why Carrington is bringing the situation to social media.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-instagram wp-block-embed-instagram\"\/>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhether she cheated on me or I cheated on her, why are we bringing that to the internet a year later when nobody did anything to anybody?\u201d Smith asked. \u201cThat has nothing to do with anybody. That don\u2019t even make sense. And to bring it to the internet a year later is crazy, just for fun? That\u2019s ridiculous. Especially when you\u2019re in a happy, healthy relationship.
