Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo may have ended their marriage together, but they’re embracing dramatically different next acts.
As Bunnie Xo stepped into a world of luxury and fresh romance rumors, the country star doubled down on fitness, fresh music and major career wins.
Jelly Roll filed for divorce from Bunnie Xo on May 18, but the “Son of a Sinner” singer listed the date of separation as May 9. The two first met in 2015 after the former sex worker met the rising star at a concert in Las Vegas and eloped a year later.
Bunnie Xo and Jelly Roll were married nearly 10 years before their divorce was finalized in July.

Post-divorce, Bunnie Xo splurged on a brand new Rolls-Royce. “Sometimes a girl needs to spoil herself,” she captioned a video showcasing her new ride, which is estimated to cost roughly $500,000.
Bunnie Xo also gave her social media followers a tour of her new Nashville-area home, which included hidden stairways, multiple massive closets, opulent floral rooms, an outdoor shower and an infinity pool.

As Bunnie Xo’s post-divorce life played out on social media, Jelly Roll’s next chapter centered on self-improvement.
Jelly Roll released a new song, “Hands Up,” on June 24. He posted an Instagram video promoting the song days ago and revealed he recently accomplished a health milestone.
“Just a few years ago, I finally threw my Hands Up and started changing my life,” he wrote in the caption. “Today I’m throwing my hands up on top of a MOUNTAIN we decided to hike on a whim that would have been literally impossible for me to get up not long ago.”
“God is GREAT y’all, God is so great.”

Additionally, the “Save Me” singer will make a “one-time, confidential lump sum payment to Bunnie, so there will be no alimony claims to be made in court,” the outlet reported.
Despite untangling their finances and officially ending their marriage, Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo made it clear they weren’t severing every tie.
“We’re literally settling our divorce in like… We’ve done it in like, what? Three weeks? Two weeks?” Bunnie Xo said in a since-deleted episode of her podcast. “We’re still having a baby together.”
“So, we have been the most unconventional couple that you guys have ever encountered,” she added. “We’re going to co-parent together. J is my best friend. Like, this isn’t what you guys think this is. Nobody cheated on the other person. It’s literally just we served our purpose for each other.”
Although the terms of their divorce remain confidential, Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo said they’re moving forward with plans to have a child together.(Gilbert Flores/Penske Media
