Here's every X-rated admission that was made by Bunnie Xo about her husband, country singer Jelly Roll, before the latter filed for divorce.
News broke this week, first reported by TMZ, that Jelly Roll, had filed for divorce in Williamson County, Tennessee, on May 18, according to court documents.
Real name Jason DeFord, the artist officially made the move last month, as sources explained that it was a “mutual decision by the two and a private family matter.”
There is no official statement at the time of writing.
The move may come as a surprise to many who have followed the couple's journey, as the pair has shared several details about their relationship in the past.
Bunnie, real name Alisa DeFord, has discussed the couple's sex life in several past interviews, which have resurfaced following news of their split.
The 'Save Me' singer has spent the last several years transforming his health, which fans saw the results of at this year's Grammys, where Jelly and Bunnie didn't hold back on PDA.
At his heaviest, the Grammy-winner weighed around 550lbs (249kg), having previously explained that his nickname and stage name were inspired by his size.
"I’ve been fat my whole life," he previously told The Bobby Bones Show.
"[My mom] started calling me Jelly Roll when I was young, and I spent the next 20 years trying to grow into the name."
His weight loss journey eventually saw him lose more than 275lbs (124kg), dramatically changing both his health and daily life.
Speaking to Men's Health earlier this year, Jelly Roll described how difficult living at his heaviest had become.
"I was a prisoner to my own body," he said. "Dude, wiping my a** was a problem. Washing myself properly was a problem. Getting in cars. Every decision I made in life had to be based on my weight.
"If it could hold me, facilitate me, or fit me... people don’t think about every facet of, ‘I still want to be able to do that and I can’t,'" he added.
During an appearance on The Howard Stern Show in February, Bunnie revealed there had been another unexpected benefit to his transformation.
"He’s getting his confidence back, and he’s peacocking around. He’s got a little strut in his step, and I think it’s just the cutest thing," she gushed at the time. "He deserves to have a hot streak. I'm ready for him to just feel his best."
She then claimed that weight loss had a noticeable effect on a man's anatomy. "I will tell you that it is very true that when a man loses weight, it grows a lot," Bunnie told Stern, before saying that in her husband's case, his private parts had become "severely bigger".
"Oh God, he’s gonna kill me," she added with a laugh.
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!’"
Jelly Roll had previously revealed that he couldn't get aroused due to his size.
