Dad Emotional Speech
However, we must note that it's entirely possible Jaden's message was more of a direct reaction to his dad's emotional speech upon winning the award for Best Actor. Especially since Jaden’s tweet came after Will’s speech, and the young Actor followed up his initial tweet with a since-deleted one that said, my dad’s speech made me cry.
Accepting Award

Richard Williams was a fierce defender in his family, will said of the role he played in King Richard while accepting his award on stage. I am being called on in my life to love people and protect people and be a river to the people. I understand to find what we do; you got to be able to take abuse.

You got to have people talk crazy about the slap. In this business, you got to be able to have people disrespecting you. I want to apologize to the academy; I want to apologize to all my fellow nominees, Will went on before adding, Art imitates life. You have to smile and pretend like that's okay.
