Jelly Roll has filed for divorce from Bunnie XO, court records made public on Monday, 15 June 2026 revealed, ending one of country music’s most public marriages just short of its tenth anniversary.
The Save Me singer filed the paperwork on 18 May 2026 in Williamson County, Tennessee, as reported by TMZ.
News of the split only surfaced this week, weeks after the quiet filing, and quickly became one of the most searched celebrity stories of the day.
Inside the Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO divorce
Sources describe the decision as mutual and a private family matter, with neither star publicly addressing the filing so far. The timing stings: the couple married in August 2016 and were weeks away from marking ten years together when the news broke.
Adding to the whiplash, a moving truck was spotted outside the couple’s Tennessee estate on Monday, 15 June 2026, with workers seen carrying items out of the property.
Fans had no warning, which is part of why the Jelly Roll divorce lit up social media within hours.
Jelly Roll, born Jason DeFord, met Bunnie XO in 2015 before his career exploded, and the two became one of music’s most visible couples as he rose from mixtape rapper to Grammy-nominated country star.
Bunnie, a podcaster and businesswoman, was a fixture at his shows and award nights.
What the split means for Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO
The breakup lands at a tender moment for the pair. In her February 2026 memoir, Bunnie XO shared that the two had found a surrogate and hoped to welcome twins, a plan that now sits under a very different light.
She had also written openly about giving the relationship a second chance after a 2018 rough patch.
Neither has scrubbed the other from social media yet, a small detail fans are watching closely. In celebrity splits, those quiet signals often say more than any statement, and so far the pair have left the door open to handling things privately.
The news travelled fast because the couple built their brand on being refreshingly open about their marriage, from his addiction recovery story to her candid podcast.
That openness is exactly why the Jelly Roll divorce caught fans off guard and sent searches climbing across South Africa and beyond.
For now, both sides are keeping quiet, and no court date or settlement details have been confirmed.
Whether Jelly Roll or Bunnie XO chooses to address the divorce directly will likely shape how the story plays out, especially with a packed touring schedule on the horizon for the chart-topping singer.
