Jeannie Mai Jenkins has announced the birth of her first child with rapper husband Jeezy.

Relationship with TV presenter explored
Jeezy’s marriage with Jeannie is his first. The pair got engaged in 2020 and on April 1, 2021, the couple confirmed to Vogue that they tied the knot in Atlanta in March 2021.
The pair had a small ceremony due to COVID-19 restrictions. Pictures and videos from Jeezy and Jeannie’s wedding are available on their Instagram accounts.
Talking about her relationship with Jeezy on a previous episode of The Real, Jeannie said: “Jeezy made me realize that I’ve never really felt safe in my life, you know? I’ve never really truly felt safe.”
She went on to talk about how her childhood experiences made her feel unsafe even as an adult. Gushing over her new husband Jeannie, 43, said, “And falling in love with Jeezy, meeting someone who also didn’t feel safe in their life, we began to really create a place where our happiness spelt out what safe looked like around us.”
Was Jeannie Mai married before?
Many might not know but unlike Jeezy, Jeannie has been married before. She was married to actor/producer Freddy Harteis between 2007 to 2018.
It looks like the couple’s divorce was not very amicable, as Jeannie revealed some uncomfortable details about their split in the 2019 episode of The Real.
Talking about her divorce with ex-husband Freddy, Jeannie said, “I was married to someone who had more money than me, but because I was the stronger earner and we lived in California — a shocking thing slapped me in the face when we divorced and I had to end up paying him my earnings,”
The Real co-host further said the experience taught her a lesson about “looking out for myself.” However, Freddy’s new partner Linsey Toole wasn’t very pleased with the comments and slammed the television star for “making up lies.”
