Days after reports emerged that Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO were ending their marriage, the country star has publicly addressed the split for the first, and only time.
Speaking during a show in Saratoga Springs, Jelly Roll stopped mid set to respond directly to speculation surrounding the breakup and the growing online commentary that followed news of the divorce filing.
His message was clear: despite the headlines, the relationship hasn’t collapsed into scandal:
“I wasn’t going to talk about this tonight, but… While we’re talking about liars. The internet is a liar too. It’s the only time in the only city I’m going to speak about this, so break your camera phones out now.
Me and my wife are best friends. We will always be best friends. We just got off the phone earlier today. Nobody cheated on nobody. She just did a whole podcast about it. You can go watch it. Every word of it is the truth.
That will be my best friend forever. This is the only time I will ever speak about it.
Bunny, I love you, baby. Thank you for those 10 years. They were incredible. Thank you for the next 10 years of friendship and 20 beyond that.
With that being said, cheers, everybody. Thanks for coming out tonight.”
The comments land just days after reports surfaced that Jelly Roll filed for divorce in Tennessee in May after nearly a decade of marriage, initial reporting described the separation as private and mutual, with neither side publicly elaborating at the time.
Bunnie XO has since addressed the situation on her podcast, where she spoke about navigating public attention, personal change and the assumptions that come with living so publicly. She used the conversation to respond to viral speculation and reflect on maintaining identity while building a life under increasing visibility.
For fans, the moment felt less like a celebrity breakup announcement and more like a closing chapter between two people whose relationship became part of Jelly Roll’s rise.
Whatever comes next, both appear focused on drawing a line under the rumours, and keeping the conversation respectful.
