Jeezy‘s ex-fiancée and his former nanny have spoken out to defend the rapper against abuse claims made by his ex-wife, Jeannie Mai.
Mahlet Gebremedhin, who is the mother of Jeezy’s daughter Amra, praised the rapper’s parenting skills.
“I’ve witnessed Jay be a devoted, caring, and present Father to our daughter and his oldest child [son Jadarius]. For almost four years, Jay’s eldest child lived with us and I was able to see their relationship grow every day. At no point was Jay ever physically, mentally, or emotionally abusive to his children or I,” she wrote in the court documents.
After Jeezy filed for divorce, Jeannie Mai accused him of being abusive and said she was afraid for her and their daughter’s safety because Jeezy keeps automatic weapons around the home.
Minhee Hoffler, his former nanny, also had nice things to say about Jeezy.
“As a caretaker, I believe Mr. Jenkins gives his daughters the support they need as they grow into young women in the future. Mr. Jenkins is a hardworking person, but even a more hardworking dad,” she wrote in court documents.
Other women also submitted statements of support for Jeezy after Mai claimed he had physically assaulted her.
