Last month, the celebrity world was rocked with the news that Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo were calling it quits after nearly a decade of marriage. Reports revealed that the singer filed for divorce on May 18, citing irreconcilable differences. By early July, the divorce was finalized, with the two agreeing to split their assets while Jelly made a significant one-time payment to Bunnie.
Bunnie didn’t hold back on her podcast, Dumb Blonde, where she spilled the beans about the divorce process. She confessed, "The decision was not mutual," and admitted feeling "blindsided" by Jelly's filing. According to Bunnie, the turning point was a heated Mother's Day argument that left her feeling utterly "fed up."
"I just looked at him and I said, 'Well, file the fucking divorce papers,'" Bunnie recalled, emphasizing the weight of her words.
Feeling the sting of those words, Bunnie packed her bags and left, not speaking to Jelly for weeks. She explained that in the heat of the moment, Jelly followed through with the divorce filings.
Despite past infidelity issues, Jelly was quick to clarify to fans that cheating wasn't the culprit this time. "Nobody cheated on nobody," he assured at a concert, adding that Bunnie's podcast told the whole truth. Echoing her dad's sentiment, Jelly's daughter Bailee, from a previous relationship, hopped on a livestream to shut down any cheating rumors.
Bailee, 18, made waves with her fiery comments during a July 19 livestream. "Nobody cheated," she declared firmly, urging followers to stop speculating. "The internet in totality is about to fucking crumble the day that I open my mouth," she teased, hinting at more revelations to come.
After Bailee's remarks went viral, Bunnie responded to a fan's comment on TikTok, dismissing any drama. "Nothing to clear up," she replied, expressing her continued love for Bailee.
Fans know Bunnie shares a strong bond with Bailee and Jelly’s son, Noah. She even supported Jelly in his custody battle for Bailee, showcasing her dedication to the family despite the split.
While the exact reasons for the divorce remain under wraps, a source told People that the couple simply grew apart, with differences in their visions for the future. "People saw the public side of things, but there was a lot more going on privately," the source added, hinting at deeper issues beneath the surface.
