Julez Smith may have had a low-key public persona for most of his life, but his mid-to-late teen years were certainly marred by a number of scandals.
In early 2021, rumors that Smith was dating “Jessie” alum Skai Jackson made the rounds. However, news of the relationship only broke after the former couple had parted ways … and let’s just say, the split was an acrimonious one. For starters, when asked by an Instagram follower if he and Jackson were friends, Smith didn’t mince words. “F**k no,” he wrote (via Just Jared Jr). From there, things escalated, as screenshots of a group chat seemingly showed Smith accusing Jackson of infidelity, and admitting their relationship had been physical — a big deal, if true, since Smith had been underage at the time. Smith also supposedly shared a video of Jackson as an act of revenge porn during that time — an unsavory allegation, no doubt. The situation was never formally addressed by either party or their families.

The following year, Smith made headlines again when he was accused of impregnating a girl. Again, screenshots shared to TikTok, then reposted on X, formerly known as Twitter, claimed to back things up. This time, however, Smith clapped back to rubbish the claims, saying they were all false … and making mention of his famous family.
