'It F***ing Sucks' — Jeannie Mai Reveals Her Divorce With Freddy Harteis Has Gotten Ugly
Oct. 16 2018, Updated 5:52 p.m. ET
Jeannie Mai has opened all the way up regarding the state of her divorce with soon-to-be ex-husband Freddy Harteis, and it's not pretty. Things have taken a turn for the worse between them as they've gone from amicable to no longer being on good terms with one another. Read on for all the details.
Jeannie and Freddy wed back in August of 2007 before calling it quits in October of 2017.
She revealed in a later episode of The Real that a big reason as to why their marriage was ending was due to her desire to not have children.
He didn't wait too long to start a family of his own, as Freddy is now expecting his first child with girlfriend Linsey Toole only months after they split. Jeannie revealed back in June that she was on the date market again after their heartbreaking divorce and subsequent baby news.
Now things have gone from them being friendly exes to not so much for Jeannie and Freddy, which she discussed during a sit down interview with the rest of The Real ladies on Friday's The Breakfast Club.

“It f—— sucks. It’s terrible,” she said about her divorce during the episode. "You wake up with a rock in your heart and you feel like you can’t really make it through the day because it’s just so heavy. Especially when finances get involved. Especially when people change."
She claimed the shift happened when " I would say, when money got involved and ego.” “This is where you learn how things change," Jeannie continued. "People say money changes people. So does ego and so does social media. And so does the press. I think that all of that mixed in between — you really gotta keep yourself grounded.”
Jeannie was also asked point blank if she thought Freddy cheated on her, where she said the timing in him getting his girlfriend pregnant was "interesting".
“And you know what’s funny, I was never really the type to really sit there and actually calculate and do math… but then, our Real fam comes in and goes, ‘Wait, when you announce you met this person at this time and now you’re together having the baby at this time, Jeannie just came out with you guys getting divorced at this time,’ that’s funny!” Mai said. “That’s when you have to face the facts".
