Jelly Roll Breaks Silence on Divorce from Bunnie XO: 'Thank You for Those 10 Years'
Jelly Roll is speaking out about his divorce for the first time.
On Monday, June 15, the country star stunned fans when it was revealed he filed for divorce from Bunnie XO after 10 years of marriage.
According to court documents obtained by TMZ, the singer filed for divorce in May in Tennessee, with sources noting that it was a "mutual decision by the two and a private family matter."
Jelly Roll later confirmed the news during a concert in Saratoga Springs, New York on Thursday, June 18, and posted a clip of him discussing the couple's separation shortly after on his Instagram.
"I wasn't going to talk about this tonight, but while we're talking about liars, the internet is a liar too," Jelly Roll said. "This is the only time, and the only city, I'm ever 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," he continued. "We spoke on 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," the singer added, referencing Bunnie's Dumb Blonde podcast. "That will be my best friend forever. This is the only time I will ever speak about it. Bunnie, I love you, baby. Thank you for those 10 years, they were incredible. Thank you for the next 10 years, and 20 beyond that."
