Jeezy says he has 'love and respect' for Jeannie Mai amid divorce
Jeezy is speaking out about his divorce from wife Jeannie Mai.
"The decision to end this chapter in my life was not made impulsively and comes with a heavy heart," Jeezy, whose real name is Jay Jenkins, said in a statement.
"Despite this, my love and respect for Jeannie remains and the time we spent together holds a cherished place in my heart," the rapper continued.
Jeezy said that his focus now is on their "beautiful" daughter Monaco, whom he called "the best gift from our relationship."
"I am committed to assuring she feels the love and stability she deserves," Jeezy wrote.
He ended the statement saying, "During this period, I kindly request that you respect our family's privacy as we focus on healing."
The rapper's public address comes a little over a month after he filed for divorce from Mai after two years of marriage.
It also comes a week after Mai shared an Instagram post about needing "to take a break and disconnect, to heal."
The couple, who married in March 2021, welcomed their daughter in January 2022.
