Jeezy âsurviving and thrivingâ after Jeannie Mai accuses him of leaving guns around toddler
He’s a soul survivor.
Jeezy gave an update on how he is doing amid his sour divorce from Jeannie Mai.
After the television personality accused the rapper of leaving an “unsecured” assault rifle in their home, which she alleged their 2-year-old daughter, Monaco, found, he let fans know he’s never been better.
“Surviving and Thriving,” he captioned a post of his Sheen magazine cover on Instagram Thursday.
The “My President” emcee, 46, has been at the center of several allegations by his estranged wife, 45.
According to court documents obtained by Page Six on Thursday, the former “Real” host accused her estranged husband of hiding “dangerous firearms throughout his home which are easily accessible and obviously dangerous to a two-year-old child.”
She also provided photo evidence of Jeezy walking through their home with the rifle in his hands as well as several guns strewn about their residence.
In the same filing, Mai accused the “Soul Survivor” emcee of physically and verbally abusing her. In one specific alleged incident from April 2022, she accused her ex of choking her and pushing her down the stairs while they were spending time at the Ritz Carlton Hotel in San Francisco.
However, Jeezy vehemently denied the claims in a statement to Page Six Thursday.
“The allegations are not only false, but also deeply disturbing, especially coming from someone I loved,” he said.
“This malicious attempt to tarnish my character and disrupt my family is ridiculous. It’s disheartening to witness the manipulation and deceit at play and at this time my main concern is being an active father to our daughter as I continue to fight for court mandated joint custody.”
Earlier this month, he asked for full custody of Monaco and claimed Mai’s schedule was too chaotic to properly care for her. Just days later, he canceled his request in favor of joint custody.
Jeezy previously accused the “Hello Hunnay” host of “gatekeeping” their daughter from him. However, in her response, she claimed she was simply trying to keep Monaco out of harm’s way.
“It is essential to clarify that Ms. Jenkins’ insistence on reasonable safety measures being put in place, such as safely securing and locking away all firearms that have been unsecure in the past, as well as having familiarity and properly trained caregivers is absolutely not gatekeeping, but rather a responsible effort to prioritize their daughter’s wellbeing,” court documents obtained by Page Six in December 2023 read.
The “Put On” rapper filed for divorce in September 2023, reasoning that their partnership was “irretrievably broken.”
Days after he filed, a person close to Mai told Page Six she was “devastated” by their split and “wants her family unit back.”
Jeezy broke his silence on their divorce in October 2023.
“The decision to end this chapter in my life was not made impulsively and comes with a heavy heart,” he said in a statement to Page Six.
“Despite this, my love and respect for Jeannie remains and the time we spent together holds a cherished place in my heart.”
The “Adversity for Sale: Ya Gotta Believe” author also said he was committed to ensuring Monaco “feels the love and stability she deserves” amid their separation.
Jeezy and Mai walked down the aisle in March 2021 after three years of dating.
They welcomed their daughter in January 2022.
