Bunnie XO says the Bunnie Xo Jelly Roll split has turned into “a blessing,” and she says she still wants to have a baby. On Aug. 20, she used TODAY with Jenna & Sheinelle to frame the breakup as the start of a new chapter rather than an ending.
“I’m just thriving. I never thought it would turn out to be such a blessing, but it’s such a blessing, and I’m so thankful,” she said. She also said, “So I definitely still want to have a baby, and that’s going to be one of my newest chapters of my next book, and I can’t wait for you guys to read about it because it’s been one hell of a journey, let me tell you.”
May 18 and June 18
Jelly Roll filed for divorce on May 18, according to court records from Williamson County, Tennessee, and the split came two months before what would have been the couple’s 10th wedding anniversary. Bunnie XO then said on the June 18 episode of Dumb Blonde Podcast that the breakup was “not mutual” and not her choice to break up.
That sequence matters because it shows how fast the story moved from filing to public explanation. By the time she sat down on TODAY, the divorce was no longer the whole story; her comments were about how she is handling the change and what she still wants next.
Baby plans after the split
In 2024, the couple said they were trying to conceive through in vitro fertilization, and Bunnie XO later said they had lost four embryos during their relationship. She also said on her podcast that she and Jelly Roll still planned to have a baby together and would raise the child as co-parents.
Jelly Roll has two children from previous relationships, daughter Bailee Ann and son Noah Buddy, which puts Bunnie XO’s comments in a family context that already included parenting. Her latest remarks keep that child plan on the table, even as the marriage itself has ended.
Out in the streets
On Aug. 20, she said she loves being back “out in the streets,” added, “Ladies, they should’ve never let me back out in the streets because I love it here, and I’m never going back,” and told the hosts, “I’m having the freaking time of my life.” She also said, “It’s a lot. I love reading everbody’s DMs. Some of these pickup lines are amazing.”
The split reads like a clean break on paper, but her comments suggest something messier and more useful to watch: she is presenting the divorce as liberation while still holding onto the possibility of another child. For readers tracking the Bunnie Xo Jelly Roll split, the important detail is that her next chapter may involve both single life and a baby plan at the same time.
