Jelly Roll’s daughter Bailee, 18, shut down affair speculation while hinting at the real reason for her dad’s divorce from Bunnie Xo.
The “Liar” singer and the podcast host announced they are splitting after 10 years of marriage.
The teen previously broke her silence on the split in a TikTok video in June.
Jelly Roll’s daughter Bailee Ann is setting the record straight on rumors that infidelity is responsible for the “Hands Up” singer and his estranged wife Bunnie Xo’s divorce. In a TikTok livestream on July 19, the 18-year-old teased the shocking reason for the former couple’s split after 10 years of marriage—and claimed “the internet will crumble” if it’s ever publicly revealed.

Addressing her followers on Sunday, Bailee firmly shut down affair speculation, sharing, “Nobody cheated. Period. [Get] the fuck out of my comments, my DMs, my live with that shit. I don’t care. I don’t want to talk about it.”
The teen also criticized rampant online discourse about the end of Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo’s marriage, adding, “Y’all have no fucking idea what happened, and wait ‘til y’all find out.” Pointing out holes in the public’s “knowledge of the situation,” she claimed, “the internet in totality is about to fucking crumble the day that I open my mouth.”

Jelly Roll, whose real name is Jason DeFord, shares Bailee as well as son Noah Buddy, 9, with previous partners. Shortly after the news broke that the Grammy award-winning singer had filed for divorce, Bailee headed to her TikTok Stories to break her silence. In a photo statement shared on June 16, she wrote, “Oh & one more thing I am disgusted at how invested everyone is in a very clearly private family matter. It’s fkn crazy.”

“Go on somewhere yall,” she continued. “Worry bout your house- not mine. I’m not speaking on it - yet.”

The “Son of a Sinner” singer previously debunked infidelity rumors while speaking out publicly on his breakup for the first time during a concert in Saratoga Springs, New York on June 18. Per a video shared on his Instagram, he addressed the crowd, saying, “I wasn’t going to talk about this tonight, but while we’re talking about liars… the internet is a liar.”
Revealing that he and his estranged wife are still “best friends,” Jelly Roll clarified, “Nobody cheated on nobody. She just did a whole podcast about it. You can go watch it. Every word of it is the truth.” In the episode, the Dumb Blonde podcast host denied rumors she had an affair with Nickelback’s Chad Kroeger.
Elsewhere in the episode, Bunnie Xo admitted she was “blindsided” by the divorce and revealed the friendly former couple still plans to have a child together.
