“He doesn’t need to talk” to Will Smith (Source)

Chris Rock doesn’t dwell on Will Smith slapping him onstage at the 2022 Oscars.

A source tells PEOPLE that Rock, 57, had “moved on” after the incident before Smith, 53, issued his first on-camera apology on Friday since the awards show in March.

“Chris doesn’t need to talk. This is clearly something that bothers Will more than Chris,” the insider said of the couple. “Will needs to sort out his issues. Chris is fine.”

Another industry source adds that it’s a positive sign that the comedian is already shedding light on the incident in his stand-up.

“The fact that he’s already making jokes about it is a good thing,” the source said. “That means he values ​​her. But the stress of the slap and the consequences didn’t take over his life. Quite the contrary.”

On Friday, Smith posted a video apologizing to Rock for punching him at the Oscars.

In the clip, the King Richard The actor said, in part, “I’ll tell you, Chris, I apologize. My behavior was unacceptable, and I’m here whenever you’re ready to talk.”

Smith also claimed to have received a message that Rock was “not ready to talk” and would “reach out” when he was.

Reps for Rock did not respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment on Smith’s video from Friday.

After the video was released, Rock joked about the slap — but didn’t address Smith’s apology — during his show at the Fox Theater in Atlanta on Friday.

“Everybody’s trying to be a fucking victim,” Rock said. “If everyone pretends to be a victim, then no one will hear from the real victims. Even me, I get slapped by Suge Smith… I went to work the next day, I have children.” (Rock’s reference to Smith as “Suge Smith” seemed like a play on the name of the currently imprisoned Death Row Records CEO, Suge Knight.)

“Anyone who says words hurt has never been punched in the face,” Rock added during the stoppage of his Ego Death World Tour.

Rock is gearing up for the fall release of his new movie amsterdam, in which he co-starred with Christian Bale and Margot Robbie. He is also currently dating Lake Bell, with whom he has been seen touring Croatia.

At the March 27 ceremony, ahead of his Best Actor win, Smith took the stage and slapped Rock in the face after he challenged a joke about his wife Jada Pinkett Smith’s shaved head. (Jada, 50, lives with alopecia.)

The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air alum said in a statement days later that the punchline was “too much for me to bear” and that he “reacted emotionally.”

Smith, who later resigned from the Academy and was banned from attending their ceremonies for the next 10 years, said in his statement, “I would like to publicly apologize to you, Chris.”

“I was out of place and I was wrong,” he added. “I am embarrassed and my actions were not indicative of the man I want to be. There is no place for violence in a world of love and kindness.”

Since the Oscars, Rock has made brief jokes at stand-up shows referencing the moment, but he hasn’t spoken at length about it yet. He said he would “talk about it at some point” eventually.
