- Jelly Roll fans convinced they’ve spotted huge clue he’s split from Bunnie Xo in latest post (irishstar.com)
Fans of country artist Jelly Roll are buzzing after a recent Instagram post sparked speculation about his marital status. The singer, whose real name is Jason Bradley DeFord, shared a promotional video on June 15 for his protein powder brand, Swole Roll, notably without his wedding ring. This absence quickly fueled rumors of a split from his wife, Bunnie Xo.
The 41-year-old Grammy-winning musician has reportedly filed for divorce after a decade of marriage. The news comes amid reports of a tour setback with Post Malone and ongoing political backlash related to the MAGA movement.
In the Instagram video caption, Jelly Roll announced new vlogs alongside the product promotion. Fans quickly took to the comments, questioning the missing wedding ring and the authenticity of the divorce rumors. Some suggested the ring might have shifted fingers or no longer fit following his significant weight loss.
TMZ later confirmed that Jelly Roll filed for divorce in May, describing the decision as mutual and a private family matter. The couple, who married in a spontaneous Las Vegas ceremony in August 2016, have been open about their relationship challenges, including fertility struggles and Jelly Roll’s dramatic weight transformation.
Bunnie, whose real name is Alisa DeFord, is a former sex worker and podcast host. She published a memoir in February 2026 titled Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic – A Modern-Day Memoir from the Trailer Parks of Vegas to Nashville and Podcast Stardom. The book candidly addresses their early life together, their marriage, and past infidelity, including Jelly Roll’s 10-month affair in 2018.
As news of the divorce spread, fans expressed shock and sadness online. Many praised the couple’s apparent happiness and long-term commitment, with some calling the split a big mistake.
The developments mark a significant moment in the personal life of a beloved country star who has shared much of his journey with his audience.
