Jeezyand Jeannie Mai are reportedly still living together amid their stunning divorce, and the decision to remain under the same roof has led to some awkward moments.
The famous duo, who tied the knot in an intimate ceremony in March 2021 amid the pandemic, announced their separation earlier this month following Jeezy's filing for divorce.
Jeezy And Jeannie Mai Still Living Together With Children
According to several reports, insiders claim that Jeezy and Mai are still living together despite going through a divorce, which has given rise to some uncomfortable and "awkward" situations.
Sources close to the situation are saying, "Jeezy and Jeannie are still living together in Georgia, but there's very little interaction going down between them -- they cross paths as they come and go from the house, but that's about it."
The "I Luv It" rapper and the "How Do I Look?" show host reportedly have a prenup, but it doesn't favor Mai, who was left in shock with Jeezy's filing. At the moment, the pair remains focused on their daughter Monaco.
Jeezy Filed For Divorce From Jeannie Mai
The couple's "awkward" living arrangement comes after Jeezy sent shockwaves through their fan base as he officially filed for divorce from Mai in the state of Georgia. The filing, which cites their marriage as "irretrievably broken" with "no hope for reconciliation," marks the end of a once seemingly picture-perfect union.
The Atlanta rapper is seeking joint legal and physical custody of their daughter, Monaco. The estranged couple, who became husband and wife in an intimate ceremony just over two years ago, had been a fixture in celebrity circles, often sharing glimpses of their love story on social media.
Mai recently took to her Instagram account to celebrate Jeezy's milestone of becoming a New York Times bestseller with his memoir, Adversity For Sale, some days before he filed for divorce.
"Today I celebrate a remarkable milestone achieved by my husband, @jeezy, whose memoir 'Adversity For Sale' has soared to the New York Times bestsellers list," she wrote in its caption.
"This moment isn't just a testament to your literary skills baby, but a recognition of your ability to inspire through the power of storytelling," continued Jenkins. "I'm endlessly grateful for your voice in this world. Honored to walk beside you, my love."
Jeezy & Jeannie Mai Reportedly Clashed Over Family ValuesÂ
Sources close to the pair suggest that the rapper's decision to divorce is rooted in a clash of family values and expectations.
According to Entertainment Tonight, insiders privy to the couple's private struggles shared that the divergence in family values and expectations became a significant point of contention, ultimately leading to "irreconcilable differences" between them. Jeezy and Mai come from diverse backgrounds, bringing unique cultural perspectives and familial expectations into their union.
"They had different views, and each felt like their needs weren't being completely met," the source told the news outlet.
Mai was also embroiled in an online cheating rumor with "Access Hollywood" host Mario Lopez after sharing hosting duties with him some months ago. However, sources close to Mai dispelled the speculations, noting that any reports of infidelity with Lopez or any other person were untrue.
Jeannie Mai Is Working To Salvage Her Marriage
In the face of swirling rumors and the recent divorce filing by Jeezy, Mai has reportedly been quietly working to salvage her marriage.
She is reportedly investing considerable effort into healing the rift and finding common ground, demonstrating a commitment to preserving the bond they once shared.
A source told People magazine that she was "hurt and devastated" by Jeezy's decision to end their marriage, adding, "She got married to stay married" and is "committed to trying to save her marriage."
"They've had issues for a long time, but things got really hard over the last few months," another source explained. "He spends nearly all his time in Atlanta, and she was flying back and forth between there and LA. She was scaling back a bit and trying to spend more time in Atlanta to work on their issues."
The insider added, "She obviously knew they had problems, but she wasn't expecting a divorce. Now she's trying to figure out what her future looks like and where she'll be living."
