Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Janet reportedly left the show due to a violation of contract that resulted when she became pregnant; the pregnancy and birth of her character Vivian's child Nicky Banks was worked into the plot to accommodate the situation!.

After she was fired from Fresh Prince, Janet's character was played by Daphne Reid for the remainder of the show's run!. According to Will Smith, the show's star, he and Janet had difficulties working together long before her pregnancy!.

There was legal trouble between Will Smith and the first actress who played Vivian Banks!. She signed a contact and in the contact she wasn't supposed to get pregnant but in real life she did and that started conflict so they added the pregnancy in the show but decided to end her contact!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
