She revealed that the episode was a particularly hard one for the group to film, leading to some discussions that proved to be quite uneasy and also eye-opening.

"This show for @gammynorris, @Willowsmith and me was so powerful and deeply moving. You never know what people are going through," Jada wrote.

As she praised the model's parents, she added: "This episode continues to validate that there is so much more that lies beneath us all, that our assumptions about one another and perceptions can not meet. 

"When we think we know … we block our chance to truly see someone who may need to be seen in a different way than how they are presenting themselves."

Jada shared her thoughts on the upcoming episode featuring Cheslie Kryst

She continued: "This show opened my eyes in a very deep way. I'm sending strength and giving thoughts to all those who love Cheslie and to anyone who has lost a loved one by suicide. 

"This won't be an easy show to watch, but it's an important one. JOIN US TOMORROW."
