The slap between Will Smith and Chris Rock at the Oscars goes down in television history for it’s sheer brazenness.

After Will gave the Oscars host a “clap” on the cheek following a diss to his wife Jada Pinkett Smith, he went on to apologise during his acceptance speech. This after accepting the “Best Actor” award for his role in acclaimed film King Richard.

Here’s what happened in the aftermath of the attack…

WILL SMITH COMFORTED BY A-LISTERS DENZEL, TYLER AND BRADLEY

In a clip shared on Twitter, Will Smith is seen being comforted by fellow actors Denzel Washington and Tyler Perry during a non-televised break.

According to The Hollywood Reporter’s Scott Feinberg, the actors encouraged Will to “brush it off” .

Will quoted the words of Denzel in his “Best Actor” speech, stating: “‘In your highest moments, be careful, that’s when the devil comes for you”.

Late in the clip, another A-lister: Bradley Cooper is seen embracing Will, whilst offering him encouraging words.

A WORD WITH PR

Will Smith also appeared to catch some flack from his publicist Meredith O’ Sullivan who came over to have a word with him, also during a commercial break.

Did the PR guru also encourage Will to apologise in his acceptance speech?

A CUDDLE WITH WIFE JADA

Will Smith took to his Instagram account in the wake of the Oscars slap to share a cuddle with wife Jada.

He posted: “Me ‘n @jadapinkettsmith got all dressed up to choose chaos”. He added in the comments section: “You can’t invite people from Philly or Baltimore nowhere!”.
