Jeannie Mai Shares Dreamy Candid With Her ‘Forever Joy’ Daughter Monaco
It’s no secret that Jeannie Mai is fully infatuated with her sweet daughter Monaco. (As she should be!) The TV personality is the proud mom of the bilingual, raspy-voiced, utterly adorable 2-year-old, and she just shared the dreamiest candid with her little one.
She posted a carousel of photos outlining the recent times she’s experienced “joy in the wild.” They’re a collection of “spontaneous delicious moments in life that you just so happen to be lucky enough to catch. Crazy how frequently these moments take place — only if you’re present enough to enjoy.”

Of course, one of those moments was with “Coco.”
In the picture, Mai holds her toddler in her arms while what looks like confetti rains down on them. Though there seems to be chaos around them, the mother-daughter duo only has eyes (and smiles!) for each other in this truly heartwarming snapshot of joy.
“The forever Joy to my Wild,” Mail said of the photo. “I will never miss one ??”
When Coco was less than a year old, The Real co-host told People motherhood is hard work but that she loves every part of it.
“Having Monaco made me feel like I’ve been born again. It sounds so overly spiritual and almost religious,” she said. “But no, I just mean that, like, I see through different eyes.”
“My ears hear different sounds,” she continued. “My heart beats to a different melody. I’m just so amazed at how a little person could make you feel so good about yourself and so hopeful about life … That little person has completely awakened me to seeing the world a whole different way.”
Mai shares Coco with her ex-husband Jeezy and this time last year opened up about how her little girl was helping her through the divorce.
“[Monaco] is my North Star,” Mai said on Sherri Shepard’s talk show.
“I can definitely tell you that I don’t know if I would handle this the same way without her because today, I’m able to look at her and I can say, ‘What would I advise you if you were in my shoes?’ And it changes everything.”
Her forever joy changes everything.
