Bunnie Xo made a bold call, and she’s not backing down from it.
The podcast host, 46, opened up on the Friday, July 10 episode of her ‘Dumb Blonde’ podcast about why she chose to delete a previous episode discussing her split from husband Jelly Roll, even after it became one of her most-watched videos ever.
“I took it down because I realized I just don’t want one of the hardest moments of my life to become a permanent headline,” Bunnie explained. “I don’t want to live in that.”
The episode reportedly earned her $100,000, but Bunnie made clear that the payday wasn’t a factor in her decision. “If I cared about the money, I would’ve left it up and let it get another 100 grand,” she said, adding that she also isn’t chasing views. “I don’t care about the views, I don’t care about the money.”
Jelly Roll, 41, filed for divorce from Bunnie in May after nearly 10 years of marriage. Two days after news of the split broke, Bunnie addressed the breakup on her podcast, sharing an emotional, unfiltered account of what she was going through behind the scenes.
Looking back, she said she’s since reached a different place emotionally. “That episode served a purpose for me at that time, and it was real, it was honest,” she said. “But I’m not in that same place anymore.”
Bunnie pushed back on the idea that she’s moved on too quickly, noting she’d privately been processing the end of her marriage long before the news went public. “I’ve been mourning the loss of my marriage for at least a year,” she said, adding that she doesn’t want the divorce to become her defining story. “I don’t want to be the poster child for divorce.”
Despite the split, Bunnie confirmed in the original episode that she and Jelly Roll remain close and are expecting a baby together via surrogate, describing their relationship as unconventional but amicable.
