Jeezy recalls scary moment when fiancée Jeannie Mai ‘couldn’t breathe’ (video)

Mai was warned her throat would have “closed” if she hadn’t had the life-saving operation when she did.

Shortly after her surgery, she wrote on Instagram: “I would never imagine ever having to write this, but I made it safely out of my emergency surgery. I will be forever grateful to Dr. Nasseri who identified my potentially life-threatening condition. What simply started as a sore throat had unbeknownst to me become a dangerous infection that already closed at least 60% of my airway and resulted in a throat abscess that spread in a matter of 3 days.”


The 41-year-old star was “devastated” that she had to leave the dancing competition early.

She added: “Although I am grateful to be recovering safely, I can’t lie… I am devastated by the fact that my journey with #DWTS will end this way. Dancing on this show has been the most exhilarating adventure. I’ve gained both beautiful friendships and loving supporters. To my partner, @Brandonarmstrong, I’m sorry you don’t get to make fun of my moves anymore while I share my life gems on how to be a grown up.
