In a statement released on Thursday, Jeezy confirmed that he filed for divorce from Mai in September. He wrote that the decision was “not made impulsively” and that he still loves and respects Mai.
“Despite this, my love and respect for Jeannie remains and the time we spent together holds a cherished place in my heart,” Jeezy wrote. “Our beautiful daughter is the best gift from our relationship and I am committed to assuring she feels the love and stability she deserves.”
Jeezy concluded by asking for privacy as he and Mai navigate their divorce.
Mai has also spoken out about the divorce, calling it “devastating” but saying that she is grateful for her daughter.
“I can definitely tell you that, I don’t know if I would handle this the same way without her,” Mai said on the talk show “Sherri.” “I’m so thankful to be a mom, and I’m thankful to have her.”
Jeezy and Mai were married for two years and have one daughter together.
