Jeezy Speaks About Divorce With Jeannie Mai, Reveals Attempt At Therapy

November 7, 2023 by newhiphopnews

In a candid and heartfelt conversation with actress Nia Long, rapper Jeezy opened up about the challenges and heartbreak he’s faced in the wake of his divorce from TV host Jeannie Mai. Jeezy, whose real name is Jay Wayne Jenkins, revealed that despite their efforts, the relationship could not be salvaged. In a recent interview released today, the rapper expressed his emotions about the divorce. He stated “This has not been an easy journey.” His candid admission provides a glimpse into the personal turmoil he’s been experiencing as he navigates this difficult chapter in his life.

Jeezy went on to share his feelings of sadness, disappointment, and unease regarding the dissolution of his marriage. This level of transparency has resonated with fans and followers, who have closely followed the couple’s journey together. The high-profile relationship between Jeezy and Jeannie Mai has been in the public eye for some time. And the news of their divorce came as a shock to many. The couple had previously been open about their love story, making their separation all the more concerning for fans who had invested in their journey.

The revelation that Jeezy and Jeannie Mai had attempted therapy as a means of salvaging their relationship highlights the complexities that can arise in even the most committed partnerships. While therapy has been a valuable resource for many couples facing challenges, it’s clear that, in some cases, the issues at hand prove insolvable. According to Jeezy, no amount of work was going to save their marriage.

The news of the divorce came in September, where it was revealed that Jeezy was the one who called it quits. While the two have been quiet about the actual reasons for the divorce, fans have speculated online. Earlier this month, Jeezy announced a double album called I Might Forgive … But I Don’t Forget. He might be revealing it all on the 29-track project. However, fans couldn’t help but notice that the 13th song on the album, “Don’t Cheat,” was an interesting title. The song’s lyrics denounce cheating, a topic that, while not explicitly linked to his divorce, has drawn speculations online. Furthermore, Jeezy continued the interview with Long on a positive note. “God has put me on a different path,” he said.

Mustard Demands $10K From His Ex-Wife For Trying To See His Finances Amid Divorce

October 30, 2023 by newhiphopnews

It’s been a difficult, contentious, and accountable past two years for hip-hop producer DJ Mustard, now simply known as Mustard. Moreover, he filed for divorce from his wife Chanel Thierry back in May of 2022, which quickly became a decidedly nasty process. Amid child support payment battles, airing out of other partners, and more, it hasn’t been pretty to witness. If you’re at all familiar with the blogosphere and sites like ours, then you most likely know a little bit about it already. Now, we have a new development in their legal split process, which saw the beatmaker demand $10K from his former wife.

Furthermore, according to a Radar Online report, this is based on Mustard’s accusation that Thierry tried to unrightfully access his finances. Apparently, she recently issued five subpoenas to his previous employers, looking for documents that were “not relevant” in the divorce. What’s more is that the L.A. artist claimed that these filings sought info from as far back as 2016, years before their marriage, that they already settled in a prenup. If you’re curious, the companies that she allegedly reached out to are Roc Nation, EMI, Live Music, Universal, and Sony.

Mustard Wants His Ex-Wife To Pay For Trying To Stretch Divorce Process Out

Still, you might be wondering why Chanel Thierry would want to look for this in the first place. This is because she allegedly wants to find out more information about Mustard’s income to fight for a larger amount in monthly child support payments in court. “She will use an abusive discovery strategy to cause this divorce to last longer than the entire length of the marriage,” he filed in court while asking that she pay for this wrongdoing with $10K. Despite legal authorities already resolving the child support issue, the 33-year-old maintains that Thierry is engaging in “an expansive, unnecessary, and expensive discovery campaign into the financial issues that have been resolved and/or are conclusively governed” by the prenup.

Meanwhile, his lawyer stated that he already paid the agreed child and spousal support amounts, both based on court rulings and the prenup. As such, they want the court to throw out these subpoenas and punish Thierry for trying to escalate and elongate this process through this action. It’s all very murky water, and unfortunately, it probably won’t get any clearer. To find out if it does, keep checking in with HNHH for more news and the latest updates on Mustard.

Tyrese‘s Ex-Wife, Samantha Lee, Reflects On Her Role In “Messy” Divorce

October 30, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Tyrese‘s ex-wife, Samantha Lee, admits that she played a role in how “messy and ugly” the couple’s divorce was. In a pair of videos posted on social media, over the weekend, Lee reflected on their split and discussed taking “accountability.” The latest remarks come after she admitted she regrets the divorce, earlier this month.

“I’m not allowing this to be twisted,” she said in the first video. “I took accountability in that interview. I don’t take back anything that I said. When you grow, and you learn, and you’re in relationships with people, and you go from those relationships and grow from those relationships, you have to take accountability for what you did, and your part in it.”

From there, Lee continued to discuss comments she made during an interview with Hardly Initiated. She said: “In that interview, I came in with the mentality that I was going to own me. I can’t own anybody else’s behavior. I can only own mine. And I’m not going to allow myself to get into anything. To get into the potholes, and to get into the tricks of trying to make this very messy and ugly — uglier than it is.” Check out the full videos below as caught by HipHopDX.

In her Hardly Initiated interview, Lee explained that bad influences got the better of her. “I was not in any position to make that decision. I was extremely emotionally intoxicated. We can be intoxicated with our emotions and I’m one — I’m very much emotionally led,” she explained. “I would never tell somebody to make that decision when they’re that emotional, but ‘course, I wasn’t talking to someone that genuinely would be for marriage or for reconciliation.” Be on the lookout for further updates on Tyrese and Samantha Lee on HotNewHipHop.

Tyrese Responds To Samantha Lee’s Recent Divorce Statements, Makes His Stance Clear

October 23, 2023 by newhiphopnews

In a recent Instagram Live video, Tyrese Gibson, the multi-talented artist known for his music and roles in the Fast and Furious franchise, made his feelings known about his ex-wife, Samantha Lee. Samantha had recently claimed that certain people influenced her decision to divorce Tyrese. During an interview, Samantha Lee discussed her decision to divorce the singer, revealing that had she received guidance from a nurturing “pro-marriage community,” she would not have initiated the legal process to terminate her marital relationship. Furthermore, she openly confessed that she would consider reuniting with Tyrese. On the condition that both parties were mutually committed to putting in the effort to mend their relationship. In response, Tyrese expressed his thoughts and made it clear that he’s been loyal, faithful, and a “good man,” to his ex-wife.

“The lawyers are on my back every day. Go sell this sh*t to somebody else,” Tyrese said on live in response. “Look at every interview I’ve done, from Sway In The Morning to Breakfast Club. If you don’t like me n***a I don’t like you. I dont need none of you women in my comments saying they like me.” He continued. “I don’t care to be liked, I never cheated, I got more access to p***y to most n***as I know. I was a good man, a good husband, I was very, very focused on my family and children.”

Tyrese and Samantha’s divorce was finalized in 2020, after four years of marriage. The couple, who shares a daughter, had once seemed like the picture-perfect pair. However, as in many celebrity relationships, the pressures of fame, coupled with personal and emotional differences, led them to part ways. Samantha Lee’s recent revelation about her divorce has raised eyebrows and sparked curiosity. In her own Instagram Live session, she stated she wouldn’t have divorced Tyrese if it wasn’t for some people “in [her] ear.” She also mentioned wanting to possibly rekindle things if “both parties were to put in the work.”

Tyrese, however, was quick to address Samantha’s claims in a subsequent Instagram Live session of his own. In a candid and heartfelt response, he made it clear that he was not interested in revisiting the past. The public response to Tyrese’s comments has been mixed. Some fans and followers supported his decision to move forward independently, while others expressed their curiosity about the circumstances surrounding their divorce. “I agree with Tyrese on this one, wholeheartedly,” one person wrote. “And his ex wife is fully aware that he is in a relationship now, so why even speak on potentially reconciling. She is definitely gaslighting.” “One thing about it his story never changed,” another wrote.

Tyrese’s Ex-Wife Regrets Divorce, Says Bad Influences Got The Best Of Her

October 23, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Tyrese’s ex-wife, Samantha Lee, recently added a wildly different but compelling side to their nasty divorce story. For those unaware, the two are currently feuding quite heavily over the circumstances and post-breakup divisions in their relationship, whether on personal terms or in court. However, it seems like this bad blood hasn’t blinded her to what she sees as a mistake. Moreover, Lee recently appeared on the Hardly Initiated podcast with co-hosts Ryan Catchings and Tysean Jackson. During her appearance, she recalled how over three years of marriage went down the drain because of bad influences.

“It’s very important to seek wise counsel,” Samantha Lee remarked of the Tyrese situation. “You have to really decide and make a very calculated decision based on your belief systems. “I think we do take divorce very casually. I would never tell a woman to walk through that. [Not] in the same frame as I was when I did it. I was very, very, hurt, I was very angry. I remember when I made the decision. [When] I was hysterically crying on the phone with my attorney, I was not in any position to make that decision, I was extremely emotionally intoxicated. I would never tell somebody to make that decision when they’re that emotional but of course, I wasn’t talking to someone that genuinely would be for marriage or for reconciliation.

“That’s no slight to my attorney,” Samantha Lee continued about her split from Tyrese. “At the time when I was on the phone and I made that decision, I was livid. I was emotional. If I’m that emotional and I’m that hurt and I’m on that level, if it’s misguided and misdirected it could go in a bad direction. The people I had in my ear at the time were not for that. The truth about the matter is that if I had different people in my ear at that time I would not have made that decision. I’m an extremely emotional person. There will be moments where, like, ’I’m ready to be done, I can’t stand this! He don’t do this!’ We’re just focusing on these things. You don’t have a certain person in your life to check you and say ‘Sis, what about this, what about these strengths?’

“You may not be thinking about when you’re upset,” she concluded. “You’re only thinking about what you’re mad about, you’re not thinking about all the other positive aspects of this person. So in those moments, you need somebody to be that person for that person in those moments. You don’t win when a family is broken apart. There was a marital therapist that was speaking to both me and him. He said when you get lawyers involved, it gets ugly. I didn’t even realize how ugly it would get. Like, if I could walk back in time… Sometimes I battle with myself about that. But at the time, I thought I was doing the right thing or the best thing. I didn’t know how ugly it could get.” For more news and the latest updates on Tyrese, stick around on HNHH.

Taye Diggs’ Ex Idina Menzel Believes The Black Community’s “Disappointment” Led To Their Split

October 20, 2023 by newhiphopnews

During a recent interview, Broadway star Idina Menzel opened up about her divorce from Taye Diggs. According to her, the fact that they were an interracial couple made their relationship complex, and eventually led to their split. “It’s very complicated,” she said of their breakup.

“Very supportive of each other always, so excited for him,” she continued. “The thing that came into play more I would say, and he’s talked about it too, is the interracial aspect of it.” While Menzel thought interracial relationships were normalized in their industry, she felt as though the outside world wasn’t as accepting.

“When you’re in the theater it’s not a thing,” she explains. “We all love each other, and sleep with each other… but when you leave that cocoon, that bubble…now… he’s on the cover of Essence and Ebony and being interviewed by all these Black journalists and I think he had his own stuff to deal with with that.” She says that grappling with outside criticism weighed heavily on both of them, and ultimately became too much to bear. “It seemed like there was disappointment in the community with him because he was married to [a] white, Jewish girl from some show we don’t even remember, and so, I took that on too,” she describes. “That’s stuff that we had to deal with. It was less about being successful and more about that kind of stuff.”

Menzel and Diggs were married for just under 11 years before their 2014 breakup. They had one child together, Walker Nathaniel Diggs, in 2009. The pair now peacefully co-parent the teen. “He comes first and you have to get past your own egos and you never talk bad about each other,” Menzel told PEOPLE of their son.

In the weeks since that news broke, the two have spoken, albeit briefly in the rapper’s case, about their split after two years of marriage.

Furthermore, the former The Real co-host expressed wishes to define herself more individually in the aftermath of this breakup.

“We know it’s a difficult time for you right now…the weight of divorce is heavy, how are you doing right now?” asked the program’s co-host Akbar Gbaja-Biamila. “You know, I’m focused on healing,” Jeannie Mai responded concerning her divorce from Jeezy. “I had to really turn off all my digital devices over the past few weeks to just really get that silence, so I could just feel my feelings, you know. I have learned I have to be mine before I am anyone else’s. So I’m really working on finding my voice.”

Sophia Bush And Ashlyn Harris Seen Flirting Months Before Respective Divorces

October 19, 2023 by newhiphopnews

Newly announced couple Sophia Bush and Ashlyn Harris may have been an item longer than originally believed. The pair appeared on a panel about women in sport at the Cannes Film Festival in June. While being seated next to one another was innocuous enough, Harris posted several photos after the panel where she was seen with her arm around Bush. They also posted up together at a Women’s World Cup watch party in LA a month later. Other reports suggest that there was some flirty behavior between the two. Furthermore, the Daily Mail went as far as to report that Harris told her wife, fellow soccer player Ali Kreiger, that the marriage was over just days after returning from Cannes.

Bush and Harris have reportedly been an official item for a few weeks now. Bush filed for divorce in early August while Harris and Krieger split in mid-September. Krieger is yet to speak publicly about the split. However, Bush’s ex-husband said he only wanted the best for her and was “supportive of all that makes her happy and fulfilled.”

Naomi Osaka Hints At Cordae Split

Damn that’s crazy I agree. pic.twitter.com/IQywt56F5s

However, Bush and Harris are not the only sports-related individuals making headlines about their relationship status. A tweet from tennis star Naomi Osaka has fans speculating that she may have broken up with rapper Cordae. “I just want someone that will watch the sunset with me,” Osaka wrote on social media while also removing any trace of her child’s father from her online presence. It’s not the first time that Osaka has hinted at a breakup. On September 27, she wrote “the art of loving yourself” while also liking a post about “walking away from those who don’t value you”. For Cordae’s part, he did not acknowledge Osaka’s birthday this week and appeared absent from her celebrations.

The couple has been together since July 2019, when Cordae officially confirmed rumors that had been circulating since April. The pair weathered Osaka’s decline from the highest echelon of pro tennis as she suffered injuries and chose to step back to focus on her mental health. The couple welcomed a daughter, Shai, this past July.
