Racquel Smith is the widow of New Orleans Saints former defensive end Will Smith.
Personal Life
Racquel and Will were married in 2008 at the Ritz-Carlton in New Orleans. It was the same year that Smith signed a seven-year, $63 million contract extension.
In 2010, Will Smith was arrested and charged with domestic battery for allegedly grabbing Racquel by the hair in a club in Lafayette.
However, Racquel said on Twitter the next day that it was all a misunderstanding. Will was not charged.
In April 2016, Will was shot to death and Racquel was shot in the leg in a road rage incident. Cardell Hayes ("Bear") was convicted of manslaughter for the shooting and was sentenced to 25 years in prison. [13]
Racquel has 3 children.
Her children are Wynter Chase Smith, William J. Smith, and Lisa Mya Smith.
