Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo are parting ways after a decade-long marriage. According to documents obtained by People, the country star and his wife have decided to end their union, with Jelly Roll – real name Jason DeFord – filing for divorce in May. The case was filed in Williamson County, Tennessee, and was initially reported by TMZ.
The couple's love story began in 2016 when they tied the knot in Las Vegas. Over the years, they have been open about their past struggles and how they supported each other through tough times. Bunnie Xo, who transitioned from adult content creation to podcasting, detailed their journey in her memoir Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic, revealing personal battles including her past drug use and Jelly Roll's legal issues.
Bunnie Xo has spoken about the power of unconditional love, emphasizing the importance of supporting a partner through their lowest moments. In a statement to People earlier in the year, she shared her perspective on love and second chances. "When you are with somebody for a long time, you are going to have to love them at their lowest," she said. "Loving somebody at their lowest is one of the most beautiful things you can do, especially if they bloom and they blossom like my husband has."

"I would have never changed my life without you," he emotionally declared, illustrating the depth of their bond despite the current developments.
As the two navigate their separate paths, there are no details yet on the settlement or future plans. A representative for Jelly Roll has yet to comment on the divorce proceedings, leaving fans curious about what lies ahead for the pair.
