Will Smith has gone through a lot of ups and downs in his life, but no matter what, he will always put family, especially his kids, first.

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air alum first became a dad when he was 24 years old in 1992, when he welcomed his son Trey, 31, with his first wife Sheree Zampino, who he married that year.

Six years later, he became a dad again when he and wife Jada Pinkett Smith welcomed their first child together, Jaden, in 1998, followed by his younger sister Willow in 2000.

Though the family itself has gone through their fair share of ups and downs, even after the former Red Table Talk host revealed that she and the Oscar-winning actor were living separate lives, from both family celebrations to red carpet events, they have continued to be supportive of each other.

Below, get to know the three Smith kids, and how they have followed in their parents' footsteps.

Trey, 31

Trey was born Willard Carroll "Trey" Smith III on November 11, 1992 in Los Angeles. Three years later, Will and Sheree, who is still close friends with the whole family, divorced, and an estrangement between her and their son ensued.

Though Will has admitted that the estrangement led to him being absent from Trey's life for some of his childhood years, they eventually repaired their relationship, and have a tight-knit father-son bond today.
