Bunnie XO says life after the Bunnie Xo Jelly Roll Split is a blessing, and she is not shy about what she wants next. Speaking on TODAY on Aug. 20, she said she still wants to have a baby, even as she describes herself as thriving after the breakup.
That is the update readers are looking for now because the split has already been public for months. Jelly Roll filed for divorce on May 18, and court records in Williamson County, Tennessee, show the filing came two months before what would have been the couple’s 10th wedding anniversary. The divorce cited irreconcilable differences.
On air, Bunnie XO did not sound cautious. She said, “I’m having the freaking time of my life,” and added, “Ladies, they should’ve never let me back out in the streets because I love it here, and I’m never going back.” She also described her messages as “a freakin smorgasbord” of men and women, a line that underscored how openly she is leaning into single life.
But the glow sits beside something sharper. On the June 18 episode of her Dumb Blonde Podcast, Bunnie XO said the split was not mutual and not her choice to break up. She also said at that time that she and Jelly Roll still planned to have a baby together and would raise the child as co-parents. That earlier comment matters because it leaves one central question unresolved: whether the baby she still says she wants would have been with Jelly Roll or is now part of a different chapter entirely.
The backstory explains why the remark landed so hard. Bunnie XO and Jelly Roll announced in 2024 that they were trying to conceive through in vitro fertilization, and she later said they had lost four embryos during their relationship. Jelly Roll has two children from previous relationships, Bailee Ann and Noah Buddy. Against that history, her new comments read less like casual post-divorce chatter and more like a reset after years of trying to build a family together.
What she made clear on Aug. 20 is that the split has not closed the door on motherhood. What she did not spell out is whether that next attempt will involve Jelly Roll at all. For now, Bunnie XO is framing the breakup as both painful and freeing, while the most important unanswered piece is whether the baby she still wants is still tied to the marriage that has already ended.
