Jaden Smith was spotted arriving at Coachella last weekend hand-in-hand with his girlfriend.
The singer, who is the son of Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith, was pictured making his way through the crowds with girlfriend Sab Zada on day two of the music festival in Indio, California.
Sab looked suitably boho-chic in a flower-print crop top and a billowing white skirt accessorised with a gold sarong tied around it, while also wearing butterfly clips in her pastel pink hair. Jaden stood out from the crowd in a multicoloured shirt and faded denim jeans.
It’s believed Jaden and Sab have been dating since at least September 2020 when they were snapped holding hands on a dinner date. They were most recently seen together in February enjoying a Valentine’s Day date at Disneyland.
Sab is a social media influencer and has a YouTube channel where she films videos such as make-up tutorials. She boasts more than 630,000 Instagram followers and is also a model signed to Select modelling agency in Los Angeles.
Jaden wasn’t the only Smith in town as his younger sister Willow performed at the festival.

Jaden, 23, hasn’t shied away from the spotlight after the controversy surrounding his father Will, who slapped Chris Rock at the Oscars over a joke about Jada.
The shocking incident took place during the live awards ceremony in March, with Chris appearing on stage to introduce the best documentary category. In his monologue, he made a joke about Jada and GI Jane despite the actress suffering from hair loss condition alopecia.
Upon seeing Jada’s unimpressed reaction, Fresh Prince of Bel Air star Will stormed on stage and slapped Chris across the face before returning to his seat and shouting: ‘Keep my wife’s name out your f*****g mouth.’

Shortly after the incident, Jaden appeared to defend his dad in a tweet, which said: ‘And that’s how we do it!’
Will, 53, later apologised to Chris before resigning from the Academy. It was then announced that the actor – who won best actor for his role in King Richard at this year’s Oscars – is banned from attending the awards for 10 years.
