The allegation was made on Unwine with Tasha K by Brother Bilal, who claimed that years ago he walked in on Smith, 55, and Martin having 𝑠e𝑥. (Cardi B previously won a defamation lawsuit against the YouTuber LaTasha Kebe, aka Tasha K.)

Jada, 52, addressed the rumor while on The Breakfast Club in an episode that debuted Thursday: “Let me just say this: It’s ridiculous, right? And it’s nonsense.”

About how Will reacted to Brother Bilal’s claim, Jada said her husband is “always gonna find the funny,” adding that she and Will “laughed about it.” “You have to because it’s absolutely ridiculous, you know what I’m saying. So all you have is, you just gotta laugh about it. And it’s unfortunate,” she said.

“He was like, ‘Do you believe this s—?’ ” she said. “But we just laughed about it.

Jada said Brother Bilal “tried a shakedown, a money shakedown, that didn’t work. We’re gonna take legal action. Because it’s one thing to have your opinion about somebody, versus just making up salacious, malicious stories. So that’s actionable. So we gon’ roll with that.”

Brother Bilal did not respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.

Jada, in her recently released book Worthy, commented on speculation about her and Will’s 𝑠e𝑥uality over the years.

She said she could only “sit back and shake my head” as it “got so ridiculous” with people claiming “we were both gay and playing as each other’s beards, or that we were sleeping with whomever we chose, whenever we chose to.”

“There have always been rumors that I’m gay — that I like women,” wrote Jada. She added that she “had a few 𝑠e𝑥ual experiences with women, only to realize that when it comes to 𝑠e𝑥, I love men.”
