00:00 It's over for Genie Mai and GZ.

00:03 The TV personality and the rapper are divorcing two years after saying "I do" Access Hollywood

00:09 has learned.

00:11 According to legal documents obtained by NBC News, GZ filed paperwork on September 14th

00:16 to end his and Genie's marriage and is requesting joint custody of their 20-month-old daughter,

00:21 Monaco.

00:22 A prenup is in place.

00:24 Access has reached out to both parties for comment.

00:27 The couple tied the knot in March 2021 in an intimate ceremony at their Georgia home,

00:32 and Genie previously explained how pandemic restrictions and personal loss shifted their

00:36 original plan to wed in the south of France, telling Vogue at the time, "After GZ's mother

00:42 unexpectedly passed, we quickly learned that life is too short, and at the end of the day,

00:47 GZ and I really just wanted to become husband and wife.

00:49 So we decided to turn our original wedding into a mini-money where we exchanged our vows

00:54 in front of our immediate family and a few close friends."

00:58 Just weeks later, GZ spoke with Access Hollywood and reflected on what it was like to see his

01:02 bride walk down the aisle.

01:04 "I had some friends tell me, 'Yeah, man, that's going to be the moment.'

01:07 And I just remember locking eyes with her, just going like, 'Wow.'

01:11 We had an amazing time getting to know each other.

01:15 And she's amazing.

01:16 She's a wonderful person inside and out.

01:19 And I was like, 'Wow.'

01:21 When we first started dating, I knew this would happen.

01:26 I didn't know he was going to look this beautiful.

01:30 And it was just a real moment being in front of fans, I mean, with friends and family,

01:35 close friends.

01:36 And just seeing my dad happy and just knowing that my sister and her parents was there,

01:43 her close friends, my close friends, and them actually seeing us just taking this next chapter

01:50 and writing this amazing book.

01:52 So yeah, seeing her walk down that aisle was a real thing."

01:57 Jeannie and GZ went public with their relationship in 2019, and the influencer last posted about

02:02 her husband in September to celebrate his newest career achievement, as his memoir,

02:07 "Adversity for Sale," hit the New York Times Best Seller list.

02:11 The 44-year-old shared a sweet video of her and Monaco saying a prayer of thanks for their

02:16 family's blessings, and she praised GZ in her caption for "always being an inspiration."

03:15 AXS most recently welcomed Jeannie in July, where she spilled fun details about motherhood

03:20 and Monaco's milestones.

03:21 Hello everybody.

03:22 I am Jeannie Mai and this is not ASMR, but I have a mini mic in it.

03:29 Monaco's first word was Mama Mai.

03:32 My mom's name.

03:34 Yeah.

03:35 My favorite thing about motherhood is just being a mom, man.

03:38 Like there is no other answer.

03:40 It's exhilarating, it's adventurous, and you...

03:42 I like myself better as a mom.

03:44 Biggest surprise about motherhood is I'm bomb at it.

03:48 Yo, I am.

03:49 I am a really good mom because I own up to my mistakes, I'm patient, and I not only Google

03:56 everything but I use my intuition and I check with my super wise friends, so I got it all

04:01 covered.

04:02 Newest milestone Monaco has reached.

04:03 So she speaks Vietnamese.

04:05 I mean, can we just start there?

04:06 In America, to teach a child another language and everybody else is speaking English is

04:12 huge and her accent is bomb.

04:14 Like, she was on the plane today and she looked at the buttons on the back of the seat and

04:18 she said, "Bum, bum," which is like two syllables and an accent and she nailed it.

04:24 Favorite thing about parenting with Jeezy.

04:26 Jeezy's so cute as a dad.

04:28 Like he goes bike riding with the kids because we have other kids between us and he puts

04:32 Monaco in the back seat of his bike and I never see him look happier than when he's

04:38 at peace just riding his bike with Monaco on the back.

04:41 It's like a dream moment for him.

04:43 Cutest or funniest thing Monaco has done.

04:45 Okay, I know this is nasty for y'all but I don't know why.

04:49 It's just something cute but when you have, you realize as a parent that you have eyes

04:54 on the back of your head when you can just feel that your kid is up to something.

04:58 So lately Monaco has been figuring out that she can dig in her diaper if she's wearing

05:03 a onesie and depending on what's in there, she comes out with a little surprise.

05:07 Well I can feel when she's up to something because she has a face.

05:11 So one time she was sitting at the couch and I was behind her and I could see at the couch

05:15 her eyes just turn into this devilish grin as she was digging in her diaper and of course

05:20 I came and found the nastiest mess but I knew it was cute because I still thought it was

05:24 so adorable and I love every part of it.

05:26 Is Monaco more of a mama's girl or a daddy's girl?

05:30 I would like to say that she fancies her mommy a little bit more.

05:34 I mean, I'm bomb, I got so much flame, I got fashion, I got games, I got songs.

05:39 But her dad is so chill and she is her dad's twin.

05:42 I said, you know what, it doesn't matter how much she loves her mom because when you look

05:47 like this, I mean come on, do I even have a chance?
