"I totally gave myself to that relationship for years of my life, and I truly and really, really deeply love and have a ton of love for her," he said. "I devoted myself to it, I gave my full self to it - so much so to the point that I can die right now and be okay with knowing that I truly gave myself to somebody."
"And I really loved a person, I experienced that and I know what that feels like - and some people never get that in this lifetime," Alsina added.
Jada's reps responded to August's claims and called them "absolutely not true", according to Page Six, while Will Smith's representative branded the reports as "wrong".
