Internet Rallies Behind Sara Smith After Tom Jones' Post About His 'Thriving' Daughter

In recent times, Tom Jones has transitioned from a beloved celebrity to a somewhat divisive figure. The internet mourned the loss of romance when he and his former partner, Sara Smith, announced their separation, especially amid whispers suggesting infidelity. While those rumors remain unverified, Jones’ affiliation with a church known for its anti-LGBTQ stance has further complicated public perception. His latest Instagram post has sparked a mixed response across social media platforms.

A Peculiar Tribute

In a peculiar tribute to his new partner, Emily Thompson, posted six weeks ahead of her birthday, Jones shared a caption that left many scratching their heads. He wrote, “Guys. Seriously. Just look at the way she gazes at me! You need to find someone who looks at you like that! We met at church. She has given me a beautiful thriving daughter, sometimes she chews so loudly that I need to wear my ear buds, but that’s love! She assists me with everything. In return, I occasionally open a jar of pickles for her. That’s the deal. Her heart is pure and it belongs to me. My greatest treasure right next to my vintage baseball card collection. If I forget her birthday, I’ll just tell her to revisit this post. Love you, babe.”

While it appears to be light-hearted, many found the tone of the message to be off-putting. Particularly, the phrase where Jones thanks Thompson for their “beautiful thriving daughter” drew attention. This is especially notable given that he shares a son, Oliver, with Sara, who was born prematurely and has faced various health challenges. The use of the word “thriving” in such a glowing post about his new partner, while referencing a son with health issues, felt somewhat pointed.

Widespread Reaction

Hopefully, this was simply an awkward choice of words. However, it’s rare to see the internet unite on a topic, so it’s worth noting the widespread reaction.
