Some people issue statements. Bunnie XO posts hot dogs and Heart lyrics.
On Tuesday, June 16, the podcast host took to her Instagram Story to post a video of her friends playfully saluting with loaded hot dogs in yellow paper containers, clinking them together in a tongue-in-cheek salute, while Limp Bizkit’s “Hot Dog” played in the background. That was followed by a selfie of Bunnie sticking out her tongue, gazing skyward, and wearing a large diamond cross pendant — set to Heart’s “Magic Man.”

The posts came the same day TMZ first reported that her husband, Jelly Roll, 41, had scrubbed her name from his Instagram bio. The country star’s profile, which previously listed “Music Man,” a lock and key emoji, and Bunnie’s username @xomgitsbunnie, now simply reads “Music Man.”
As In Touch previously reported, Jelly filed for divorce from Bunnie in Williamson County, Tennessee, on May 18, after nearly 10 years of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences. The couple’s listed separation date is May 9. Jelly, born Jason DeFord, and Bunnie (real name: Alisa Andrea DeFord) first crossed paths in 2015 when she attended one of his concerts at Las Vegas’ Country Saloon. He proposed to her onstage in Sin City the following year, and the two quietly married in a courthouse ceremony that same night.

Jelly’s daughter Bailee Ann, 18 — born from a past relationship — addressed the situation on TikTok. “Oh & one more thing I am disgusted at how invested everyone is in a very clearly private family matter,” she wrote over a selfie, adding an expletive for emphasis. “Go on somewhere yall,” Bailee continued. “Worry bout your house- not mine. I’m not speaking on it – yet.”
The split marks a painful turn for a couple who had been openly navigating fertility challenges together. The pair had spoken publicly about their struggles with IVF, and Bunnie wrote in her memoir, Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic, that they had found a surrogate and hoped to welcome twins.
Jelly is also father to son Noah, 9, from another past relationship.
