Jelly Roll Files for Divorce from Bunnie XO After a Decade of Marriage

Jelly Roll has filed for divorce from wife Bunnie XO after nearly a decade of marriage.

The filing was made on May 18 in Williamson County, Tennessee, according to court documents obtained by Billboard and first reported by TMZ. The decision has been described as mutual and a private family matter, according to TMZ. The couple will continue co-parenting their two children — Bailee, 15, and Noah, 7, both from previous relationships.

Meanwhile, a moving truck was spotted outside the couple’s Tennessee estate on Monday, with workers appearing to remove items from the property, according to photos published by TMZ.

Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO met in 2015 and married in a secret Las Vegas courthouse ceremony in August 2016, without telling friends or family. They renewed their vows at the same Las Vegas chapel in August 2023. The relationship was not without turbulence — the couple separated in 2018 after Bunnie XO discovered Jelly Roll had been unfaithful, an episode she later wrote about in her memoir Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic.

Jelly Roll publicly acknowledged the affair in October 2025 on the Human School Podcast, calling it “one of the worst moments of his adulthood.” Bunnie XO defended her decision to return to the marriage at the time, saying: “It actually takes a stronger woman to confront pain directly, put in the effort, and rebuild with the man she loves.”

In February 2026, Bunnie XO shared on Instagram that she was hoping to have twins via surrogate. Hours before the divorce news became public on June 15, she posted a mysterious Instagram photo with the caption “She’s getting her sparkle back.” At the 2026 Grammy Awards, Jelly Roll publicly credited Bunnie XO for helping him turn his life around.

Jelly Roll has become one of country music’s most commercially successful crossover stories of the past three years. His 2022 single “Son of a Sinner” reached No. 1 on Billboard’s Country Airplay chart and crossed into the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100, while “Need a Favor” topped the Hot Country Songs chart in 2023. His album Whitsitt Chapel debuted at No. 2 on the Billboard 200 in 2023, and he won the CMA Award for New Artist of the Year the same year. He has received seven Grammy nods, of which he has won three, and has collaborated with artists including Lainey Wilson, Cardi B and Tech N9ne. Bunnie XO is a podcaster and content creator whose show Dumb Blonde has built a significant following.

Neither Jelly Roll nor Bunnie XO have made public statements. Billboard has reached out to representatives for both for comment.
