In a bombshell revelation, Bunnie Xo shared that despite her divorce from Jelly Roll, the two still plan to move forward with having a baby together and intend to co-parent their child.
The surprising update came during a new hour-long episode of the Dumb Blonde Podcast titled “The Divorce.”
Throughout the episode, Bunnie Xo addressed rumors surrounding the split, opened up about what led to the end of their marriage, and discussed the details of their divorce agreement, including who is getting what. However, perhaps the biggest surprise came when she revealed that their plans to grow their family have not changed.
“I love him and you guys are going to be shocked to hear this, but we’re still having a baby,” she shared.
“We’re still having a baby together.”
Bunnie Xo explained that while she and Jelly Roll are ending their marriage, they remain committed to raising a child together.
“We’re going to co-parent together. Jay is my best friend. This isn’t what you guys think this is. Nobody cheated on the other person. It’s literally just we served our purpose for each other and I’m excited to discover myself single and single and sober, which is crazy.”
She also opened up about the grueling IVF process and said she remains determined to become a mother, even if the journey looks different than she originally imagined.
“I feel so powerful and I feel so inspired to just live life. I’m so excited to live my life through a child’s eyes, which is why this baby journey, I’m not going to let it break me and I’m not going to detour it. And Jay has been so fucking great about us still having a baby together and he wants the same thing. And we’re just going to raise Little Nugget as one big happy family.”
Bunnie Xo went on to assure listeners that while their marriage is ending, the love between them remains.
“It’s ending with love and we’re continuing the love because we’re having our little nugget together.”
She also described the divorce process as surprisingly peaceful.
“Jay and I literally talked for two hours today before I did this podcast. He knows this podcast is coming.”
Court documents obtained in Williamson County, Tennessee, show that the divorce filing was made by Jelly Roll on May 18 and lists May 9 as the couple’s date of separation. The country star cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for ending the marriage.
According to Bunnie XO’s podcast, their divorce is being settled in record time.
“My husband and I are ending this marriage on the best possible terms that you could ever have a divorce. We’re literally settling our divorce and we’ve done it in like what, three weeks, two weeks?”
