The departure of Janet Hubert from The Fresh Prince of Bel Air came due to several complications that occurred on the set.

Following this, when The Fresh Prince of Bel Air returned for a fourth season Daphne Reid had taken her place as the character of Aunt Vivian.

Fans were quick to notice this sudden shift as Aunt Viv was a major character in the show. Will Smith and Janet Hubert have since then maintained silence on this issue only until recently when the two were seen posing with each other in a candid picture.
