A lot to unpack over the Jelly Roll–Bunnie XO split. After the bombshell dropped that the singer and the influencer were divorcing, fans were on standby for details, and they didn’t have to wait long. Let’s break it down.
- During his Thursday night concert in Saratoga Springs, New York, Jelly addressed the situation from the stage. “I wasn’t going to talk about this tonight, but speaking of liars, the internet is a liar, too. This is the only time and the only city I’m gonna speak about this,” he said. “Me and my wife are best friends. We will always be best friends. We just got off the phone earlier today. Nobody cheated on nobody. She just did a whole podcast about it. You can go watch it. Every word of it is the truth. She will be my best friend forever. This will be the only time I will ever speak about it. Bunnie, I love you, baby. Thank you for those ten years. They were incredible. Thank you for the next ten years of friendship and 20 beyond that.”
- And about that podcast; the new episode of Bunnie’s “Dumb Blonde” podcast led with what the people came for: a breakdown of the breakup. The episode, which has over three million views already, gives Bunnie’s take on the situation. Here’s what we learned about the split:
- The breakup wasn’t mutual. A massive Mother’s Day argument led to Bunnie yelling in frustration, “Well, then file the [ ] divorce papers”…and he did.
- As Jelly said from the stage, infidelity did not play a part. “Nobody cheated on the other person.”
- On the subject of infidelity, she shot down specific rumors that were circulating. “I am not dating Chad Kroger. I am so sorry to Chad and Nickelback for this happening. It’s embarrassing.”
- Further, she clarified that, while her husband is already open to dating, he is not dating singer Jessie Murph. “That is absolutely [ ] kind of disgusting, guys…That’s a 20 year age gap, and that’s just disrespectful.”
- They still plan on having a child together. The couple share Jelly’s kids from previous relationships, but are on an IVF journey to have their own child that will continue. “We’re still having a baby together,” she said, adding that the two plan to co-parent and raise their future child together.
- She’s not ready to date but Jelly Roll is. “And the crazy thing is I’m not even ready to hook up with a dude. I’m ready to just focus on myself, pour into myself. But my husband is ready to date.”
- When she does get ready, the potential suitors are already lining up. “Stella’s getting her groove back. Ever since the announcement, the [ ] amount of blue check marks in my [ ] DMs…And the [ ] come on lines.”
- She’s getting the big Nashville house and all the animals. “He’s giving me that compound in the divorce because he knows how special it is to me.”
