Jeannie Mai contesting prenup, saying she didn’t have time to review details

Now, of course, when people marry, they don't marry with the expectation that it's not going to last and we're going to end up getting divorced. You marry with the expectation that you're going to spend the rest of your life with someone. Unfortunately, that's not always the case for everyone

Not that she doesn't love. You know, she has indicated once again that wasn't her desire to have children, to get pregnant. So she did a lot of things that she said that she wouldn't do as of other women have done in times past. And I think if she doesn't come out on top, this is just yet another example as to why women need to have their own attorneys to read things thoroughly, to really think things through. Being in love is great

Jeezy may have been sitting on a little more than what she has or had, and interestingly, more so when it's prenup, somebody has something where it's like they really don't want to lose majority or definitely all of what they have, you still walk away with something. So now, although they did have a child together, my thing is this, even if it didn't work out in regards to the marriage, just make sure that the child is taken care of

But in a divorce, there's never really a good split. Somebody's going to come out on top, somebody is going to come out on the bottom. And usually that person who comes out on top, they're not missing the person. They don't feel the remorse. They're probably taking trips, living the best life or whatever. And the person who comes out on the bottom has to rebuild, has to restructure. When the dust settles for everybody else, they're still rebuilding

But also let's be good if it don't last forever. So whatever that's in that contract, I believe that it should come to the surface. It should happen. It should be carried out. I don't think it should be changed because she's responsible for that. She's an adult. And if he put something in there he shouldn't have put in there, then that's just her for not reading it. That's the way I feel like she should have read it

And if you guys don't have aligning values, he's wanting a prenup. You don't feel like a prenup is necessary, but you're signing it because you love him, you trust him, and both of you all are under the idea that you're never going to need this piece of paper anyway. To me, a prenup is not loving at all. If a man wanted to present me with a prenup. I don't see the love in that

But I think that depending on how that ended up, or maybe just the fact that she was previously married and divorced, maybe that in itself made him feel like, okay, I need to get a prenup because he's never been married before. From my understanding, this was his first marriage and her second one. So maybe he felt like, okay, I need to protect my assets based on things she told me about her previous marriage and divorce and so know prenups

We don't understand all the legalities around a divorce, the emotional and mental pain that goes with a divorce. And like you said, having to rebuild and everything. I remember listening to a Dave Ramsey podcast, and there was a man on there who had come out of a marriage and he had gone through a divorce, and he really did lose everything

And she probably didn't take the time to read it because five days, if she's claiming five days before they got married, which I'm curious as to why she didn't get this prenup till five days before they got married, I'm wondering if she's had a copy of this prenup and just didn't take the time to really read it until five days prior to the wedding

So I don't buy that. I don't buy that. And her being a businesswoman. So now when it comes to this marriage and there was a business document, you didn't put on your business hat and do what you needed to do. I think not only for me personally, I think not only is it that there's things in there that she don't like, I think it's the fact that she didn't think he would divorce her

And I believe, like what Evelyn says, she was just so in love and just so wanting to get married and all of that that she probably didn't really pay attention or probably didn't care at that point because you thinking, hey, we ain't gonna never even need this. We'll do it, but we ain't really ever going to even need it, so it don't even matter. But like you said, she did not expect him to divorce her

And I look forward to being invited to more swells. Anyway, other than that. And one more thing I wanted to add. When it comes to relationships, it's amazing how people grow into loving one another. But then, just in a blink of an eye, they're ready to kill each other. Don't make any sense

So I will do better to make sure that whenever I drop some content that you are part of the conversation because you add value to the conversations. I agree with you. Sometimes when we're in love, we just don't think clearly. I think I told another respondent that our judgment is skewed and the prenup could have been a very long document, like you said, 30 pages long or something. And no, I don't want to sit down and read through all of this
