Jeannie Mai, host of America’s Test Kitchen, is facing challenging times with a contentious divorce and custody battle with her estranged husband, Jeezy.
Despite the turmoil in her personal life, she is focused on maintaining her mental, physical, and internal well-being, as well as caring for her 2-year-old daughter, Monaco.
In a recent Zoom interview with PEOPLE, Jeannie shared that she prioritizes activities she loves, such as working out, arranging playdates for Monaco, exploring ballet and scootering, introducing music into their lives, and indulging in her passion for cooking. By surrounding herself with things that bring her joy, she finds solace and purpose in her everyday life.
Amid ongoing legal proceedings, Jeannie alleges instances of domestic abuse and child neglect during her relationship with Jeezy. In response, Jeezy denied the claims on Instagram, expressing his commitment to being an active father to their daughter and seeking court-mandated joint custody.
As Jeannie navigates her role as a working single mom while filming America’s Test Kitchen in Boston, she emphasizes the importance of quality time with Monaco and prioritizing rest.
Jeannie also highlights the value of learning from other moms and being part of supportive communities to enhance her parenting skills.
