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.
