In a world of flashing lights and fleeting headlines, Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo continue to prove that their love story is anything but ordinary. From viral antics at a hockey arena to heartfelt confessions about marriage, this country couple knows how to balance humor, passion, and staying true to one another—even under the spotlight.
A bold moment on the ice
Country singer Jelly Roll was all smiles when his wife, Bunnie Xo, decided to steal the show during a recent photoshoot at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena. While the Grammy-nominated artist posed for the cameras, Bunnie playfully flashed him from the sidelines, lifting her shirt and grinning mischievously. The moment was captured on video and quickly made its way to Instagram, where fans couldn’t get enough of the couple’s candid chemistry.
“When he’s not paying attention to you so you have to flop out the knockers,” Bunnie captioned the video with a wink, setting it to Wheeler Walker Jr.’s cheeky tune “Drop ‘Em Out.” Jelly’s reaction—a wide grin followed by an appreciative cheer—sent fans into a frenzy. Comments poured in, with many praising the couple’s openness and playfulness. “Love how excited he is,” one follower wrote. Another added, “Y’all are amazing.”
The fun didn’t stop there. The couple had been at the arena to celebrate Jelly’s special honor—being immortalized with his very own Nashville Predators bobblehead, joining a lineup of country icons including Tim McGraw, Keith Urban, Amy Grant, and Vince Gill. At one point during the game, Jelly and Bunnie were shown on the jumbotron, where they shared a quick kiss to the cheers of a delighted crowd.
A love story written in real time
Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo first crossed paths in 2015, when she attended one of his performances at the Country Saloon in Las Vegas. It didn’t take long for sparks to fly; the couple tied the knot the following year. Since then, their bond has been defined not only by public displays of affection, but by an equally candid willingness to talk about the real work behind their relationship.
During a recent appearance on The Pivot Podcast, Jelly reflected on how marriage isn’t a one-size-fits-all journey. “Anybody who tells you, ‘It’s a one-size-fits-all,’ [is] gonna get divorced,” he said bluntly. “People are gonna change. You better evolve with the motherf—ing times… That’s the only choice you got.”This honesty resonates with fans who appreciate the unfiltered approach the couple takes toward their public life. For Jelly and Bunnie, adaptability isn’t just a theme—it’s a survival tool.
The 14-day rule
For Jelly Roll, consistency in a chaotic industry starts at home. In his November 2024 PEOPLE cover story, he shared the simple but profound rule he and Bunnie live by: never go more than 14 days without seeing each other. The couple has carried that standard through tours, press schedules, and now even to parenting.
“We actually just implemented that same rule with our 16-year-old [daughter Bailee],” he told PEOPLE. “Because we realized that we were going a month or two at a time without seeing her, and I was like, this just needs to be family.”
It’s this kind of mindful structure that has helped Jelly maintain a sense of balance as his music career continues to climb. The emotional connection between him and Bunnie is more than just romantic—it’s foundational. “She’s the person you show up to when the chips are down,” he said. “She’s been there for every part of the journey.”
Partnership in the spotlight
Beyond the jokes and Instagram antics, Jelly and Bunnie have created a public dynamic that embraces both vulnerability and joy. Bunnie, who hosts the popular Dumb Blonde podcast, is known for her humor and boldness, but she also brings depth and insight to conversations around relationships, resilience, and personal growth.
Together, the couple has become a rare example of a marriage that thrives in the public eye without being distorted by it. Their openness and mutual support have turned them into fan favorites not just for what they do, but for who they are together.Whether it’s a viral moment at a hockey game or a heartfelt quote about sticking together, Jelly and Bunnie are writing their own rules—one laugh, one hug, and one 14-day countdown at a time.
