Jelly Roll is setting the record straight.
Following the unexpected news of his divorce from Bunnie XO, the country star used a concert stop in Saratoga Springs, New York, to directly address the speculation surrounding the end of their nearly 10-year marriage. But before speaking, he made one thing clear: this would be the first—and last—time he publicly discusses the matter.
Jelly Roll: “The Internet Is a Liar”
Pausing his set to speak candidly with fans (fortuitously after singing his track “Liar”), Jelly Roll wasted no time shutting down one of the biggest rumors circulating online.
“I wasn’t going to talk about this tonight, but while we’re talking about liars, the Internet is a liar too,” he told the crowd, firmly denying allegations that infidelity led to the couple's split.
His comments echoed statements Bunnie XO recently made on her Dumb Blonde podcast, where she also insisted that cheating played no role in their divorce. “Me and my wife are best friends,” Jelly Roll declared. “We will always be best friends. We just got off the phone earlier today. Nobody cheated on nobody.”
While confirming that their marriage is ending, Jelly Roll emphasized that the bond between him and Bunnie remains intact. The singer also expressed gratitude for the years they shared together: “That will be my best friend forever… Bunnie, I love you, baby. Thank you for those 10 years.”
Bunnie XO Has Also Opened Up
Earlier, Bunnie XO released a special episode of her Dumb Blonde podcast titled “The Divorce,” where she discussed the end of their relationship in detail.
She described communication issues as a major factor in the split, denied rumors of infidelity, and revealed that the pair hope to continue their plans to have a child together through surrogacy and co-parent in the future.
A Divorce That Has Captured Fans' Attention
Jelly Roll filed for divorce on May 18, citing irreconcilable differences, with court documents listing May 9 as the couple's date of separation. The news came as a surprise to many fans, especially after the pair frequently shared their relationship journey through interviews, podcasts, and public appearances.
The public reaction has been so intense that Jelly Roll's daughter, Bailee Ann, recently urged people to stop speculating, calling the divorce "a very clearly private family matter."
