How the separation came into the public eye
The split between Bunnie and rapper Jelly Roll became public earlier this month. Court documents filed in Tennessee revealed his petition for divorce was submitted on May 18.
Key moments in the timeline
- May 18 — Jelly Roll files for divorce in Tennessee.
- Mid-May — The filing followed an argument on Mother’s Day, according to Bunnie.
- June — Bunnie confirmed the separation to podcast listeners and discussed the fallout.
She has said the decision was not mutual. Still, Bunnie calls Jelly Roll her “best friend.” That tension—between hurt and affection—forms much of what she shares publicly.
What she has said on the “Dumb Blonde” podcast
Bunnie has used her platform to unpack the private and public sides of the split. She described a breaking point during a heated exchange on Mother’s Day.
In her own words, when the relationship reached a limit, she challenged him to file the papers. That moment, she explained, carried weight because certain phrases in their dynamic were considered taboo.
Listeners heard her admit fatigue and frustration. She also emphasized how many women live in loveless marriages. That recognition sparked an emotional response from her audience.

- Plans she’s keeping under wraps for now.
She describes this surge as a floodgate opening, with multiple teams and producers expressing interest. Her focus, she says, is on creative work and new ventures.
