<p>Comedian Chris Rock's mother Rose has hit out at actor Will Smith for attacking her son during the Academy Awards 2022 last month.

She added that she was 'proud' of the way Rock handled the incident as he continued his duties as presenter with utmost professionalism. She also indicated that she wasn't too happy about The Academy's decision to ban Smith from the Oscars for 10 years as 'You don’t even go every year'.<br /><br />The Oscars 2022 proved to be an eventful night for Smith as he made headlines for a variety of reasons. The star stormed on to the stage during the ceremony and slapped Rock for cracking a joke at his wife Jada Pinkett Smith's expense. He dropped an 'F' bomb while warning the comedian that his better half was off limits.

He spoke about his desire to be a 'vessel of love' in his acceptance speech but didn't explicitly apologise to Rock for the slap incident. <br /><br />Smith later acknowledged that he was 'out of line' and asked for forgiveness. He was, nonetheless, banned from the Oscars for 10 years.
