Will Smith was joined by his wife and children at the Vanity Fair Oscars after party, where he clutched his award and performed one of his hits.

The film star and rapper, 53, was named best actor at the 94th Academy Awards ceremony for his performance as Richard Williams, the father of tennis icons Venus and Serena Williams, in King Richard.

However, the victory has been overshadowed – after Smith stormed the stage and hit host Chris Rock in the face after the comic made a joke about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith’s hair loss.

Arriving at the Wallis Annenberg Centre for the Performing Arts in Beverly Hills for the post-ceremony event, Smith posed with Pinkett Smith, 50, sons Trey, 29, and Jaden, 23, and daughter Willow, 21.
