Bunnie Xo Admits Jelly Roll Divorce Wasn’t Mutual: “I Was Speaking Out of Anger”

Bunnie Xo is speaking out about the argument that ended her 10-year marriage with JellyRoll.

On Monday, June 15, it was revealed that the country singer filed for divorce from the Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic author in May.

According to court documents obtained by TMZ, he filed for divorce from Bunnie Xo in Tennessee, with sources noting that it was a “mutual decision by the two and a private family matter.”

Just days after the news broke, on Thursday, June 18, the Dumb Blonde Podcasthost revealed what caused their split in an episode titled “The Divorce.”

Bunnie Xo explained that as a couple, they have “never been really good” at disagreements and often bottled up their emotions, which she called a “recipe for disaster.”

The podcast host shared that on Mother’s Day, she was “fed up and so tired” after an argument with Jelly Roll.

“I just looked at him and I said, ‘Well, file the f—ing divorce papers,'” she said. “And in our relationship, that is the one cardinal thing that you don’t say, even though my husband has said it numerous times…. But when I say it, it really holds weight, because I’m not the type of person who says what I don’t mean.”

She did not explain the details of the fight, but shared afterwards she “packed a bag and left.” She didn’t talk to Jelly Roll for several weeks.

“During that, he was so mad and we were so emotional that he ended up doing exactly what I told him to do and filing the divorce papers,” she explained. “Was this divorce mutual? No. It was not mutual, even though I told him to file the divorce papers. I was speaking out of anger and just frustration. But was it necessary for us to have a wake-up call and for us to start having these real conversations? Absolutely.”

Jelly Roll filed for divorce on May 18, but stated their date of separation as May 9, the day before Mother’s Day.
