Bunnie Xo has issued a plea after revealing that her Instagram DMs have become a chaotic place following the news of her divorce from Jelly Roll.
The Dumb Blonde podcast host took to the social media platform on Tuesday (June 23) to joke about the number of men trying to get her attention after her split became public.
In the clip, the 46-year-old used face-morphing filters to transform herself into different men while lip-syncing to Petey Pablo's track 'Freek-A-Leek,' in which the rapper lists a series of NSFW bedroom suggestions.
In the overlay text of the clip, she wrote: "What it's like opening my DMs right now."
She added in the caption: "Send help."
The post comes just over a week after it was reported that Jelly Roll filed for divorce from Bunnie in May after nearly a decade of marriage.
Speaking on her podcast days after the filing became public, Bunnie admitted she had been blindsided by the decision but stressed there is no bad blood between the pair and that the pair will remain "best friends".
She also added that they still plan to welcome a baby together through IVF. "We're just going to raise little Nugget as one big happy family," she told listeners.
In addition to this, she shared that the 41-year-old musician has already begun moving on romantically.
"My husband is ready to date," she said on the podcast. "He's rearing and ready to go … he's even started dating, which is great, I love that."
As attention surrounding Bunnie's divorce has continued to grow, details of one of her previous relationships have also re-emerged.
Her ex-husband, music producer Francisco "Frankie" Lombardo, recently spoke about their four-year relationship, claiming it "destroyed" him when it came to an end.
"Bunnie was the only girl that broke my heart," he told the Daily Mail. "She left me for another man and... [it] f*****g destroyed my life in a sense. And she got with some dude [who she dated before Jelly Roll] who beat her up, which was a f*****g nightmare."
The former couple met while the influencer was still married to Christopher Gilbert, although both maintained that her previous relationship had already ended by the time she and Lombardo got together.
After the meeting, their romance progressed quickly. Lombardo moved in with Bunnie just a week later, and the pair married in Hawaii on Valentine's Day in 2010, only five months after beginning their relationship.
Looking back on their marriage, Lombardo said: "It was good. I really loved her, and I think that we were definitely extremely close....We're f*****g best friends... She was a good wife."
Lombardo said tension eventually developed over Bunnie's work and the financial support she received from multiple sugar daddies.
"When I met her, she said to me right out of the gate, 'I just want to let you know that I have a couple sugar daddies,'" he recalled.
"And I was like, 'What the f**k does that mean?' I didn't want to know, but she had a couple sugar daddies who would send her money. She never saw them. They lived out of state."
Lombardo admitted he became "super jealous" of the arrangement because, as he explained, "I wanted her all to myself."
The 46-year-old has previously spoken openly about her past as a high-end escort and has never hidden the fact that sugar daddies gifted her expensive items, including cars and diamonds.
She has also said she still had sugar daddies and continued seeing clients when she first began dating Jelly Roll.

After country music star Jelly Roll, 41, filed for divorce from his wife, influencer and podcast host Bunnie Xo, 46, he has stayed silent until now.
He has finally spoken out about their relationship and even claimed that “nobody cheated on nobody.”
The couple, with a combined 8.3 million followers on Instagram, had been married for almost ten years and renewed their vows just three years ago.
Although the singer paid tribute to his wife on stage at the Grammys earlier this year, saying that without her, he “would have ended up dead or in jail”, Jelly Roll has filed for divorce months later.
On Thursday evening, he told the audience at his show at Saratoga Springs, New York: “This is the only time and the only city I’m gonna speak about this, so break your camera phones out now.”
Jelly Roll, real name Jason Bradley DeFord, even claimed: “Me and my wife are best friends. We will always be best friends,” and declared that Bunnie will “probably be the only woman I will ever love the way I loved her.”
Despite TMZ reporting that the separation was a "mutual decision by the two and a private family matter", the pair have previously been open about their up-and-down relationship.
The documents filed for the divorce cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for ending their marriage.
Offering an olive branch to his estranged wife, the 'Wild Ones' singer endorsed an episode of Bunnie’s Dumb Blonde podcast, during which she discussed the couple’s divorce.
Prompting fans to listen to the episode, Jelly Roll said: “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. Bunnie, I love you, baby.”
The podcast host, real name Alisa De Ford, made a bombshell revelation in the most recent episode: Jelly Roll is allegedly already dating again.
She revealed: "J is a little lover, and he, you know, he likes to snuggle, and he likes to cuddle.”
The model even encouraged other women to contact her soon-to-be ex-husband, saying: "Don't be scared. Shoot your motherf**king shot.
"I will be the ex-wife, okay? And we'll have a great time."
However, she did also admit that she is not ready to do the same. Bunnie confessed: “The crazy thing is, I'm not even ready to hook up with a dude. I'm ready to focus on myself and pour into myself."

Bunnie Xo has claimed that her ex-husband, Jelly Roll, is already stepping back into the dating world following their divorce, and she says she's fully supportive of it.
Speaking on the June 18 episode of her Dumb Blonde podcast, the 46-year-old opened up about the country singer's new chapter after the pair ended their longstanding marriage.
According to Bunnie, Jelly Roll is thriving both personally and physically.
"Daddy Roll is probably in his finest season, right? He's feeling himself. He looks so good. He is healthier than he's ever been," she claimed before revealing that he has "started dating."
She described the singer as someone who enjoys affection and companionship, saying: "J is a little lover, and he, you know, he likes to snuggle and he likes to cuddle."
Bunnie stressed that she's comfortable with the situation and is currently focused on herself rather than seeking a new relationship.
"The crazy thing is, I'm not even ready to hook up with a dude. I'm ready to focus on myself and pour into myself," she explained.
In fact, she even encouraged women interested in Jelly Roll to reach out to him directly.
"Don't be scared. Shoot your motherf**king shot," she joked. "I will be the ex-wife, okay? And we'll have a great time."
While Bunnie says she's happy to welcome a future partner into Jelly Roll's life, she made it clear that honesty is important.
"I will welcome you with open arms, but if you're a b***h who is lying straight-up the first time you meet my husband — God, gotta stop calling him that — the first time you meet J," she said.
She then joked about how closely she and Jelly Roll pay attention to people around them.
"First of all, we are like the FBI. We will figure out everything about you. And two, we just don't wanna have to do that. Just come correct and be cool."
Bunnie also shared what she believes her ex is looking for in his next relationship.
According to her, Jelly Roll wants someone down-to-earth and away from the influencer lifestyle.
"He needs a really sweet girl who is normal and isn't like, f**king trying to be a f**kin' influencer," she said.
She added that he may be looking for someone very different from herself.
"No offense to anybody — his wife, you know — no offense to anybody, but I think he wants the complete opposite of me, which is what he deserves."
Although she says Jelly Roll hopes to eventually settle down, Bunnie has other advice for him.
"He wants to settle down," she revealed, adding that she's encouraging him to "play the f**kin' field."
News emerged earlier this week that Jelly Roll, whose real name is Jason DeFord, quietly filed for divorce in Tennessee last month after nearly a decade of marriage.
Sources close to the former couple said their relationship had always been complicated, dating back to when they first met.
At the beginning of their romance, Jelly Roll was struggling financially while Bunnie earned a living as a sex worker.
"When they first got together, they were both in a very different place in their lives," a source claimed. "There was a lot of chaos, ups and downs, and they built a life together through all of that."
Despite their split, Bunnie's comments suggest the pair remain on good terms as they move forward separately.

Model and podcaster Bunnie Xo, 46, who has been caught up in one of the most talked-about divorce cases of the year, has been publicly shamed by another ex-husband who claims she “destroyed his life”.
Despite Bunnie’s marriage of ten years to country singer Jelly Roll, making endless headlines over the last month, the couple claims that they are still “best of friends”.
Although the high-end escort is ending her current marriage “on the best possible terms”, the same certainly cannot be said for her previous marriage to Francisco 'Frankie' Lombardo.
In a recent interview with the Daily Mail, music producer Lombardo revealed that he was jealous of Bunnie’s multiple sugar daddies, and it “destroyed” him when she left him for another man after four years together.
The 46-year-old said, “Bunnie was the only girl that broke my heart.
“She left me for another man and... [it] f*****g destroyed my life in a sense. And she got with some dude [who she dated before Jelly Roll] who beat her up, which was a f*****g nightmare.”
The pair met when Bunnie was married to Christopher Gilbert, and their relationship moved extremely quickly. A week after meeting her for a drink with Gilbert, Lombardo moved in with the model.
Despite rumors at the time, the couple claimed that Bunnie had not cheated, and her relationship was over by the time he moved in with her.
Then, just five months later, the new couple got married in Hawaii on Valentine’s Day 2010.
Lombardo spoke fondly about the beginning of their marriage, saying, “It was good. I really loved her, and I think that we were definitely extremely close," he recalled. "We're f*****g best friends... She was a good wife.”
Eventually, Bunnie's rather promiscuous lifestyle and career choices began to bother Lombardo, making him “very jealous”.
In particular, it was the contact she maintained with her “sugar daddies” that annoyed her then-husband the most.
Describing the moment Bunnie told him about her use of pay pigs, Lombardo said, “When I met her, she said to me right out of the gate, ‘I just want to let you know that I have a couple sugar daddies.’
“And I was like, "What the f**k does that mean?" I didn't want to know, but she had a couple sugar daddies who would send her money. She never saw them. They lived out of state.”
He admitted that he was “super jealous” of the men who sent his wife money because, as he explained, “I wanted her all to myself”.
The former escort has not tried to hide her relationship with sugar daddies and has been more than open about how they showered her with cars and diamonds. According to the former sex worker, she still had sugar daddies and saw clients when she first started dating Jelly Roll.
Since country music star Jelly Roll, 41, announced his divorce from his wife, influencer and podcast host Bunnie Xo, 46, he has stayed fairly silent until announcing a bombshell “plot-twist”.
The couple, with a combined 8.3 million followers on Instagram, had been married for almost ten years and renewed their vows just three years ago.
In a video released on his YouTube channel called “The Divorce Vlog," Jelly Roll showed behind-the-scenes clips of life on the road with his and Post Malone’s Big A** Stadium Tour, as well as promising “piping hot tea” about his sudden breakup was about to be announced.
Towards the end of the video, he called Bunnie, who joined over the phone to remind his fans to tune into her podcast, Dumb Blonde, if they want the full story.
The former couple laughed at the camera while Jelly Roll said: “Yeah, ya’ll thought we were gonna hate each other.”
Bunnie then swiftly chimed in with: “Plot twist b***hes.”
In an unusual move from a couple going through a divorce, they signed off their call by telling each other that they loved each other. Jelly Roll initiated the niceties by saying: “Love you, baby,” to which she responded: “Love you, bye.”
During his show last week, Jelly Roll publicly declared his love for his partner of over a decade. He told the audience at his show at Saratoga Springs, New York: “This is the only time and the only city I’m gonna speak about this, so break your camera phones out now.”
Jelly Roll, real name Jason Bradley DeFord, even claimed: “Me and my wife are best friends. We will always be best friends,” and declared that Bunnie will “probably be the only woman I will ever love the way I loved her.”
Despite TMZ reporting that the separation was a "mutual decision by the two and a private family matter", the pair have previously been open about their up-and-down relationship.
The documents filed for the divorce cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for ending their marriage.
Jelly Roll had previously admitted to a historical affair, though the couple had worked through it at the time and remained together for several more years.
In response to a fan asking why she did not end the marriage over the adultery, she said: "It actually takes a stronger woman to face pain head-on, do the work, and rebuild with the man she loves — instead of running or gossiping."

Country artist Jelly Roll and his wife, Bunnie Xo, are set to split up after almost 10 years of marriage.
It was revealed by TMZ that Jelly Roll, real name Jason DeFord, filed for divorce in Williamson County, Tennessee, on May 18, according to court documents.
The move may come as a surprise to many who have followed the couple's journey, as the pair have shared several details about their relationship in the past.
Earlier this year, they could be seen getting their PDA on at the 2026 Grammys, before Jelly Roll, 41, scooped up an award for himself, thanking his wife in his speech.
Following the news, an old interview involving podcaster Bunnie Xo, real name Alisa DeFord, and the discussion of the couple's sex life has resurfaced.
Speaking out in February this year, she explained how her love life with Jelly Roll changed following his dramatic weight loss.
The country artist once hit 540 lbs (245 kg), but managed to lose over half of that without the use of GLP-1 medication, getting down to 265 lbs (120 kg).
Speaking to Us Weekly, Bunnie Xo opened up about what she shared in her memoir, Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic: "We always had a sex life, but there were mountains and valleys that we had to go through - especially when he was so big."
She added that it was his "excitement and his new zest for life" which was refreshing, adding: “It’s so childlike and just giddy - just seeing him get to be the man that I always saw that he was.”
The 46-year-old went on: “Even when he was 500 pounds, this dude was an agile, big guy. I’m like, ‘You are athletic under that meat suit.’
"Now that he has the weight off of him, he just gets to be who I always knew that he was, and I think it’s brought a new sense of happiness to him. Any time he’s happy, I’m happy."
Jelly Roll also opened up about his own weight loss in an interview with Men's Health this year, explaining: "I was so fat that there came a moment in life that my wife and I had to put two queen beds beside each other because we couldn’t fit in a king bed anymore, I was just all over,
"Now it’s a totally different thing. I’m chasing her around the house. I’m like a teenage kid again! I’m like the Pink Panther – I bust out of every corner. And she opens the cabinet and I go, ‘Hi!’"
He had previously revealed that he couldn't get aroused due to his size.
The couple started dating over 10 years ago, after meeting at one of Jelly Roll's shows at Las Vegas' Country Saloon in 2015.
After around a year of dating, Jelly proposed to Bunnie on stage in Las Vegas, with the pair eloping and making it official in a courthouse ceremony that same evening.
They had been open about numerous aspects of their relationship, including their IVF journey, as they were attempting to conceive.
When Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo attended this year's Grammy Awards, they could be seen laying kisses on one another, sharing a more wholesome moment after the former won Best Contemporary Country Album.
As part of his acceptance speech, he said: "I want to thank my beautiful wife,
"I would have never changed my life without you. I would have ended up dead or in jail. I would have killed myself if it wasn't for you and Jesus. I thank you for that."
