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."
