Celebrity couple Jeannie Mai and Jeezy are engaged, quarantine style.

According to PEOPLE the rapper/philanthropist popped the question to The Real co-host on March 27th 2020.

Jeezy (born Jay Wayne Jenkins), 42, was originally planning to propose to Mai, 41, sometime in April during a previously planned trip to Vietnam.

However, due to the outbreak of the novel coronavirus, which has restricted travel around the globe, he decided to surprise her with a proposal during a special date night at his home in Los Angeles.

“Jeannie and Jay were set for a trip to Vietnam this April. What Jeannie didn’t know is that Jay was planning to propose,”a source said.

“Instead, Jay decided to bring Vietnam to Jeannie with a surprise quarantine date night in his home filled with Vietnamese food and decor.”

The couple, who met on the set of her daytime talk show, began quietly dating in November 2018 but as reported by The Sauce didn’t take their romance public until the following August, when they walked the red carpet at a gala for his non-profit, Street Dreamz, arm-in-arm.

The couple who are quarantining together have since then introduced each other to their families with Mai spending last year’s Thanksgiving with Jeezy’s family.

This will be the second marriage for Mai, who split from ex Freddy Harteis in 2017.
