The story of how Jelly Rolly and Bunnie Xo met
Rabbit Xo And Jelly roll‘s love story began in Las Vegas.
As she remembered the Bussin’ with the boysshe met the singer in August 2015 while performing at the Las Vegas Country Saloon. This was before Jelly Roll was famous. At the time, he was living in a van and he estimated that about 20 people were at the show.
Instead, their spark took center stage.
“When I met him, I tell everyone he’s the most cliché f—ing, but literally my soul was like, ‘There you go,'” Bunnie said on the 2023 podcast. “And he’s not my type. I’m not his type. He loves Taylor Swift. That’s his type.”
However, a romance didn’t form right away. Bunnie was in an unhealthy relationship, she continued, and Jelly Roll was doing her own thing. But in October 2015, they reconnected. And as Bunnie said, she was “simply smitten.”
After her ex went to prison, she added, she told a friend to give Jelly Roll her phone number. Bunnie said the musician would call and message her for advice about her daughter Depositary from a previous relationship.
However, Bunnie noted that his connection with Jelly Roll changed from platonic to romantic in July 2016 when he returned to Vegas to film videos and they slept together.
“We are like drunkards,” she recalls. “I’m trying to get it up, get it in, get it in and get it out, and this guy said to me, ‘What’s your five-year plan?'”
So they discussed their goals and Bunnie remembered Jelly Roll saying, “OK, cool. Let’s do it.”
