Jeezy Demands Divorce Case With Jeannie Mai Be Sealed, Wants to Protect Child From 'Contentious' Split
Jeezy wants the details of his uphill divorce battle with Jeannie Mai kept out of the public eye. The rapper, 46, filed a motion obtained by RadarOnline.com, demanding the judge seal "sensitive personal and financial information" and anything about their child, revealing their split has gotten "contentious."
Jeezy — real name Jay Wayne Jenkins — filed the documents in Fulton County Court in Georgia on February 21, just weeks before he is scheduled to face his ex in court. The hip-hop star alleged he and Mai, 45, are "public figures" and have been hounded by the media during their volatile split.
As this outlet reported, Jeezy filed for divorce from Mai, 45, in September after more than two years of marriage, claiming their relationship was "irretrievably broken."
The pair share one child, their two-year-old daughter, Monaco, whom Jeezy said he wants to protect at all costs.
"The parties are both public figures. Since the filing of this action, they and, most importantly, their Child, have become the subject of intense media scrutiny and publications in connection with their divorce action that are directly contrary to the best interests of the Child," his filing read.
He signified that his relationship with Mai has only worsened in the last few months.
"In addition, this litigation, tragically, is becoming increasingly more contentious and, as a result, it is inevitable that sensitive personal and financial information, and information related to the Child, will necessarily be discussed and disclosed as the parties explore the issues incident to their divorce," the motion stated.

Mai fired back at his accusations, stating she had been more than fair in trying to accommodate her estranged husband's requests to see their child, but she had concerns about her daughter's safety — pointing to Jeezy's firearms.
The battle didn't stop there.
Mai asked the judge to deny Jeezy's request to enforce the prenuptial agreement, claiming she had "legitimate concerns" about the accuracy of his financial disclosures given the "quick nature" in which she was forced to sign.
