Jelly Roll’s Wife Details the First Time She Laid Eyes on Him: ‘What Is This Big Southern Boy?’

Jelly Roll and Bunnie

Not only do people follow Jelly Roll for his music, they also follow him for he and his wife, Bunnie Xo‘s, love story.

The two have been married since 2016, and their relationship has been on a rocket ship to the moon since.

Bunnie Xo recently opened up about the first time she ever laid eyes on Jelly Roll. She said they met at the Las Vegas Country Saloon in 2015, when he was opening for the Moonshine Bandits.

And as soon as Bunnie saw him, she said, “What is this ? What is this man? This big Southern boy.”

She said it was easy to talk to him and get to know each other because there weren’t that many people there. Bunnie said, “We were backstage drinking, but nobody even knew who he was.”

On the flip side, Jelly Roll told me that the first time he talked to Bunnie, she said that he had “the saddest eyes she had ever seen,” and that she just had to get to know him.

They hit it off, and the rest is history. The couple married in 2016, and they had a small tiff that led to a breakup in 2018, but then they got back on the same page and have been inseparable since.

Lately, Bunnie and Jelly have both said on separate occasions that they are trying for a kid together. Bunnie later detailed her IVF journey and she continues to keep us all updated.

Hopefully soon, we will have some news about a mini Jelly Roll coming.
