Are Jeannie Mai And Jeezy Dating? New Details About 'The Real' Co-Host's Dating Life
Yes and no.
Instagram / Twitter "The Real" host Jeannie Mai opened up about her current dating life and admitted she is "multi-dating."
Mai revealed she is back in the dating scene following a nasty divorce from ex-husband Freddy Harteis. She has been rumored to be dating rapper Jeezy and she took to her show to speak about the alleged relationship.
“You guys know that I’m multi-dating, right?” Mai asked her co-hosts. “Jeezy and I hang out. He’s very special to me. We don’t really have a label to define what it is we’re doing. We’re just having a good time together.”
Mai's friend Malika Haqq posted a photo on Twitter that sparked rumors of a relationship between Mai and Jeezy. The photo, captioned, "3's Company," featured Haqq and her man, Lori Harvey and her boyfriend Trey Songz and Mai and Jeezy.
Mai has been on the bench when it comes to dating since her divorce from Harteis, who she was married to for 10 years, but appears to be ready to date again.
The talk show co-host had a rough time dealing with the divorce, which stemmed from finance disagreements and the fact that Mai does not want children but Hateis does.
On an episode of The Breakfast Club, Mai revealed that the separation became worse when money and egos got involved.
"You wake up with a rock in your heart and you feel you can’t really make it through the day because it’s just so heavy,” she cried.
Not long after the divorce, Hateis had a child with another woman. He and his girlfriend, Linsey Toole, announced they were expecting a child just six months after he and Mai announced their split in October 2017.
When asked if she believed her ex-husband had cheated on her, Mai said she found the timing "interesting." But despite everything, Mai maintains that she and Harteis ending things on good terms.
In December, Mai opened up about learning to love herself since her divorce.
"Clearly you don't always end up with the greatest love of your life," she said on The Real. "But it took me that to find out that you already have the greatest love of your life, you just don't realize it until you find it, and that is yourself."
Now, Mai said she has jumped back into the game but is not dating anyone exclusively. Rather, she is casually dating multiple people and enjoying her time in the dating scene.
"You know I always keep it too real at this table," she said. "I promise you that when there is that one special boo you will be the first to know, unless Malika goes TMZ on me again."
