Jeannie Mai Opens Up About Forgiving Her Mom After 8-Year Beef

Jeannie Mai has been letting fans in more and more, most recently revealing she and her mom had beef for eight years. After an argument that occurred when Jeannie was just 16 years old, The Real co-host says she and her mom avoided each other “like the plague.”

Explaining that her mother, Olivia TuTram, wasn’t supportive of her when she needed her most, Jeannie told the audience…

“When I was 16, my mom and I — who you guys know is my ride-or-die, my best friend, my icon today — she and I had a major falling out.” “We disowned each other when I was 16 and, literally, until I was 24 we avoided each other like the plague,” she continued.

She goes on to say that reality tv has NOTHING on her and her mom’s fights.

“My family would try to trick us and I would come to a party and she would be there. When I tell you the Love & Hip Hop scene is nothing compared to what was happening with me and mom — throwing things at each other, the cursing, the words.”
