TMZ reported an Instagram exclusive about the ongoing divorce battle between Jeannie Mai and Jeezy. They allege that Jeezy is “backing off his bid for primary custody of his kid.”
In another TMZ report dated April 11th, Jeezy allegedly filed “legal docs” obtained by TMZ to “toss out the current custody and parenting time arrangement” that was apparently “hashed out in mediation” with Jeannie. Shockingly, Jeezy wanted his daughter, Monaco, to be “allowed to live with him full-time.” He even claimed that Jeannie wasn’t taking care of Monaco herself.
When Jeezy and Jeannie initially made their custody arrangement, he said he’d “agreed to move to the basement” of the home they once shared. But Jeezy has since claimed that Jeannie “moved out,” and she took 2-year-old Monaco with her.

As far as his serious allegation that Jeannie is not “taking care” of their daughter, Jeezy accuses Jeannie of leaving Monaco with her “brother and mother.” He also believes Jeannie travels too much and her lifestyle “isn’t good for their kid.”
Jeezy further accused Jeannie of keeping Monaco away from him for “nearly 2 months.” He provided a shocking example detailed in another TMZ report on April 17th.
TMZ reported Jeezy’s confirmation that he was allowed to “take Monaco for spring break” this year. But allegedly, when someone in Jeezy’s camp went to pick up Monaco for another scheduled visit at the beginning of April, Monaco wasn’t there.
Jeannie Allegedly Blocked Jeezy’s Number
Since Jeannie has allegedly “moved out” and taken their daughter with her, Jeezy is complaining that he “often has no idea” where Monaco is. He claims violates the initial custody arrangement. As further proof of his allegations, Jeezy said he couldn’t even FaceTime his child because Jeannie allegedly “blocked” his number.
Still, Jeezy has allegedly changed his mind about wanting primary custody of Monaco. The headline of the TMZ article said that Jeezy is clarifying his custody request and wants a “joint parenting schedule” with Jeannie.

TMZ also quoted inside sources who apparently knew Jeezy’s intentions the entire time. According to them, Jeezy only ever wanted “joint custody in the long term.” Now, he wants a hearing in court to “hash out a temporary parenting schedule” so that he and Jeanne both get equal time with their daughter.
Jeannie has actively denied many of Jeezy’s allegations. As far back as December 19, 2023, TMZ reported that Jeanie filed court documents to deny his claim that she was “gatekeeping their daughter” or disallowing Jeezy from spending time with Monaco.
Shockingly, Jeannie’s December court documents alleged she was just trying to keep Monaco “safe” during the divorce. She apparently had a valid reason.
According to a statement from Jeannie’s legal team, she “100% wants Jeezy to be involved in their daughter’s life.” But Jeannie also said that safety is her “#1 concern.”
Jeannie Accused Him of Cheating
Jeannie alleged in her December court documents that Jeezy owns firearms. She believes this is unsafe for their toddler child.
But Jeezy claimed in April that Jeannie’s allegation “isn’t fair.” He even admitted that he’s always kept weapons in his home, and he never put Monaco “in harm’s way.”
But Jeannie’s legal team did not back down. They stated that it was “essential to clarify” Jeannie’s “insistence on reasonable safety measures being put in place.”

In the statement, Jeannie demanded that Jeezy’s weapons be safely secured and locked away. Shockingly, she claimed that he had kept his firearms “unsecured” in the past.
Jeannie also described her brother and mother as “properly trained caregivers.” She explained that having people around her to help her raise Monaco is a “responsible effort to prioritize their daughter’s well-being.”
She fully denied “gatekeeping” or denying Jeezy access to his daughter. However, she admitted that she had put Monaco “under the care of others” when she was “traveling across the country.” Jeannie said that is a “reasonable protective measure” she takes because of a “genuine concern” for Monaco’s “safety and security.”
One scandal in this divorce battle has yet to be confirmed. After Jeezy filed for divorce from Jeannie, she filed a response implying that he had cheated during their marriage.
TMZ reported that Jeanie accused Jeezy of cheating as a silent warning, alleging that if he did cheat, it would have “consequences” on Jeezy under their prenuptial agreement. TMZ connected the dots, claiming that was when Jeezy “filed new docs himself,” and started complaining that Jeannie was keeping Monaco from him.
