Chainkeen Exchange-Jeannie Mai alleges abuse, child neglect by Jeezy in new divorce case filing

Jeannie Mai has detailed incidents of alleged abuse from Jeezy amid their divorce.

Mai's domestic violence claims were included in the latest filing in the estranged couple's divorce case,Chainkeen Exchange which was submitted in Georgia's Fulton County Superior Court Thursday and reviewed by USA TODAY.

The former "The Real" daytime TV host's filing is in response to the "Soul Survivor" rapper's request earlier this month for the court to void the temporary agreement the couple had in place amid their divorce proceedings, which temporarily resolves issues such as a parenting plan for their 2-year-old daughter, Monaco.

In the document, Mai details her concerns for Monaco's safety, should Jeezy be allowed to spend time with their child without the temporary order they'd previously agreed to be in place.

According to the filing, both parties signed a mediated agreement in February, which in part requested that Jeezy provide an inventory of all the firearms in his home and ensure they are secured before he has parenting time with their daughter. Mai claims he has "refused" to do so and made the case that their child is not safe with her father due to past instances of alleged abuse against Mai.

In a statement posted on Instagram on Thursday, Jeezy wrote, "The allegations are not only false but also deeply disturbing, especially coming from someone I loved."

What Jeezy's said:Rapper asks court for "structure" for daughter, Mai files counterclaim

"This malicious attempt to tarnish my character and disrupt my family is ridiculous. It's disheartening to witness the manipulation and deceit at play and at this time my main concern is being an active father to our daughter as I continue to fight for court mandated joint custody," he added. "Rest assured, the truth will prevail through the proper legal channels."

USA TODAY has reached out to Jeezy's representatives for comment.

Jeezy filed for divorce from Mai after two years of marriage in September, citing an "irretrievably broken" marriage with "no hope for reconciliation."

Jeannie Mai claims Jeezy has been 'neglectful' of their 2-year-old daughter

In her 117-page filing, Mai asks the court to uphold the mediated agreement both parties signed in February and require Jeezy to address the issue of firearm inventory and storage.

"Due to (Jeezy's) past outbursts of physical violence and verbal abuse against (Mai) and his eldest son, (Mai) has valid concerns as to (Jeezy's) ability to appropriately parent a small child," the document states.

She claims Monaco found an assault rifle in a zipped-up Louis Vuitton bag left on the dining room floor in 2023 and that his 6-year-old daughter found his guns in various locations in the kitchen. Mai says Jeezy has been "neglectful of properly supervising" their daughter during his visitation time, including when he allegedly left her "seemingly unattended" to perform at the CMG Gangsta Art Tour in November 2023.

However, with Jeezy's recent reassurance that the assault rifle is not inside his Atlanta home, Mai said the two are arranging parenting time in May.

In a December filing before their mediated agreement on temporary issues, Jeezy asserted that while he doesn't think Mai is "acting maliciously or with specific intent to harm," he believes she "has acted as a gatekeeper when it comes to (Jeezy) exercising parenting time."

Jeezy claims that Mai has interfered with his relationship with Monaco — though not maliciously, he reiterates — which is "causing confusion and tension between the parties and is working to stifle the development of" his relationship with his daughter.

Mai hit back at these claims in her April 25 filing, claiming Jeezy created a "false narrative wherein he attempts to villainize the mother of his child."

She rejected claims that she withheld Monaco from her father, alleging the father and daughter spent time together in November and December 2023 as well as in February and March. Mai added that he was prevented from seeing the 2-year-old upon "his failure to abide by the terms of the parties' mediated agreement."

In his divorce filing, Jeezy requested joint custody of Monaco.

Jeannie Mai says Jeezy struck her face, pushed her down stairs

"(Jeezy) has a history of threats, violence, and bodily harm," Mai's filing reads.

"(Mai) mistakenly believed (Jeezy) when he convinced her prior to their marriage that he was a changed man, and his past was in his past, but as one can see from the examples of abuse (Mai) endured during the marriage that has not turned out to be the case."

In her filing, Mai shares three instances of domestic abuse in 2022, including a time when Jeezy allegedly struck her face with a closed fist after asking the driver to leave them alone in a car in Miami in January 2022. Following the alleged incident, she says, the two contacted their pastor and therapist for counseling.

She also said she'd reported another alleged violent incident that took place inside a car to the couple's therapist.
