Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith under investigation by child protective services

Will Smith and his wife Jada Pinkett Smith are reportedly under investigation by child protective services.
A controversial photo showing their daughter Willow, 13, in bed with 20-year-old actor Moises Arias has sparked the alleged investigation.

Radar Online reports the Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services has opened an investigation, and so far the family is being co-operative.

''The investigation was formally opened last week and is being taken very seriously by the department,'' a source told Radar.
''Will and Jada Pinkett Smith have been extremely cooperative with officials. Of course, they aren't happy that their parenting skills are under scrutiny, but they understand.''
The black and white photo was posted on Instagram by Arias early in May and shows Willow lying in bed with a topless Arias sitting behind her, partially covered by sheets. It was also shared on their friend Kendall Jenner’s Tumblr account.

The post received a lot of criticism, and the Hannah Montana actor quickly removed it from his Instagram account.
Not long after it was posted, Jada Pinkett Smith lashed out at waiting paparazzi who asked her about the controversial photograph.
''Here’s the deal,'' Pinkett Smith said at Los Angeles Airport on May 7. ''There was nothing sexual about that picture or that situation. You guys are projecting your trash onto it. You’re acting like covert paedophiles and that’s not cool.''

So are they an item or is it just a friendly thing??
