Jelly Roll has filed for divorce from his wife Bunnie XO, TMZ has confirmed, bringing an end to one of country music’s most openly discussed marriages.

Court records obtained by TMZ show the filing took place in Tennessee in May. Sources close to the situation describe the split as a mutual decision and a private family matter.

A Relationship Built in Public

Jelly Roll and Bunnie first crossed paths in 2015, before his music career had taken off in any significant way. Romance followed the year after, and the two married in August 2016 — a wedding that took place just one week after Jelly Roll welcomed a son with another woman, a moment he has since publicly described as one of his worst.

The marriage was never one that either party tried to keep behind closed doors. Bunnie, who had worked in the sex industry before quitting in 2023, has been candid over the years about the relationship’s turbulence — acknowledging multiple separations and the kind of struggles that most couples navigate privately but that the two of them addressed openly, often on their respective platforms.

Jelly Roll himself spoke publicly about infidelity in the relationship, expressing deep regret over the pain he had caused Bunnie.

That transparency became one of the defining qualities of how the public understood their relationship — two people who had been through genuinely difficult things together and had chosen, repeatedly, to stay.

Sources have not indicated what prompted the divorce filing in May, describing it only as a mutual and private decision. No additional details about the terms of the split have been made public.

For fans who have followed both Jelly Roll and Bunnie closely — watching them build careers, navigate controversy, and speak honestly about their life together — the news lands as something more than a celebrity split.

It lands as the end of a story a lot of people had been quietly rooting for.
