Jelly Roll’s Ex-Girlfriend, Mother of His Daughter, Pleads Guilty to Lesser Charge After Drug Arrest

Over a year after being arrested on multiple drug-related charges, Jelly Roll‘s ex-girlfriend, Felicia Beckwith, has pleaded guilty to a lesser offense.

According to court records obtained by Us Weekly, Beckwith admitted to possessing less than 0.5 grams of fentanyl and was sentenced to three years of supervised probation. The plea agreement resulted in all of the other charges against her being dropped.

Beckwith, who is the mother of Jelly Roll’s daughter, Bailee, was arrested in February 2025 after deputies in Tennessee conducted a traffic stop involving her and two other people. According to a press release issued by the Washington County Sheriff’s Office at the time, authorities recovered drugs, cash and firearms during the investigation.

She was originally charged with manufacture, delivery, sale or possession of methamphetamine, Schedule II drug violations, two counts of simple possession/casual exchange and unlawful drug paraphernalia. Those charges have since been dropped.

Jelly Roll, whose real name is Jason DeFord, and Beckwith began dating before he found fame as a country singer. Both of them struggled with addiction during their relationship, and Beckwith gave birth to Bailee while Jelly Roll was incarcerated. After Bailee was born, the “I Am Not Okay” singer was motivated to turn his life around. (He also shares son Noah with ex Melissa Cowell.)

Jelly Roll and his wife at the time, Bunnie Xo, were granted custody of Bailee in 2017 when she was just 8 years old. The couple announced their separation earlier this month after a decade of marriage.
