PredictIQ-Jeezy alleges 'gatekeeping' of daughter amid divorce, Jeannie Mai requests 'primary' custody

Jeezy has accused Jeannie Mai of acting as a "gatekeeper" of their daughter amid his divorce from the TV host.

In a Georgia court filing,PredictIQ the rapper has requested a temporary hearing with a Fulton County judge to set "clearly defined" temporary legal and physical custody of he and Mai's daughter, according to documents filed Thursday and obtained by USA TODAY.

The 46-year-old artist, born Jay Wayne Jenkins, and Mai, 44, share a daughter, Monaco, 1.

The "Soul Survivor" rapper filed for divorce in September after two years of marriage. Since then, the former "The Real" host has temporarily lived in the couple's Los Angeles home; both have addressed custody arrangements on an "informal" basis, according to the latest court filing.

The filing continues to say that both parties are in agreement with a visitation schedule through 2023, but according to Jenkins, addressing "custodial and parenting time issues" informally is "becoming increasingly less feasible."

USA TODAY has reached out to reps for Jeezy and Mai for comment.

"The lack of consistency, continuity and stability inherently associated with such a haphazard and fluid parenting time schedule is stressful," for their child, the document reads, "and it has, as is unfortunately inevitable with all families in transition, created unnecessary tension and confusion regarding not only parenting time but also in regard to each parent's role and rights when the Child is in their respective custody."

The document asserts that while the "Put On" rapper 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.

The rapper requests that the court "separate, structure and clearly define the parties' temporary legal and physical custody rights and set a parenting time schedule consistent with the best interests of the Child," the document reads.

Jeannie Mai references prenup in counterclaim against Jeezy in divorce filing

In response to Jeezy's divorce filing, Mai filed a counterclaim maintaining, among other things, that she be awarded joint custody as well as "final decision-making authority" on their custody agreement, and that she should "be awarded primary physical custody" on a "temporary and permanent basis."

The counterclaim also requests Mai be "awarded a fair and equitable distribution" of the couple's assets acquired during the marriage, Jeezy pay Mai's legal fees and the court enforce the couple's prenuptial agreement "with regard to infidelity."

The couple's prenup includes a clause that says if either "engages in sexual relations, an emotional relationship, or is emotionally or sexually suggestive in communication with" another person through various means, "including but not limited to, texting, sexting, Facetiming, social media and/or Direct Messages" the "adulterous party" should pay a financial penalty. The filing does not make a specific accusation of infidelity.

Jeezy says he's 'disappointed' with Jeannie Mai divorce

Jeezy filed to end his marriage to Jeannie Mai in September in Georgia's Superior Court of Fulton County. The filing said "the marriage of the parties is irretrievably broken" and "there is no hope for reconciliation."

Speaking broadly about love and family, Jeezy told Nia Long, 53, in a video shared on his YouTube channel last month that he "can't honestly tell you that I've experienced love, especially not unconditional."

The rapper added that he prefers to keep many of the details of their split private.

"This has not been an easy journey. I can tell you that I'm sad. I can tell you that I'm disappointed. I can tell you that I'm uneasy," Jeezy told Long. "But God has put me on a different path, and that path is going to entail for me to take care of myself and to love myself and to be in the best situation that I can thrive as someone who's been through all of the things that I've been through."
