The story of how Jelly Rolly and Bunnie Xo met

Bunnie Xo and jelly rollHer love story began in Las Vegas.

As she remembered in Bussin’ with the boysshe knew the singer in August 2015 when he performed at the Las Vegas Country Saloon. This was before Jelly Roll was famous. At the time, he lived in a van and estimated there were about 20 people at the fair.

Instead, his spark took center stage.

“When I met him, I told everyone he was the most f—ing cliché, but literally my soul was like, ‘There you are,'” 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.”

Still, romance did not form immediately. Bunnie was in an unhealthy relationship, he continued, and Jelly Roll was doing his thing. But in October 2015 they reconnected. And as Bunnie said, she was “just in love.”

After her ex went to prison, she added, she told a friend to give her phone number to Jelly Roll. Bunnie said the musician would call and text her for advice about his daughter. Depositary from a previous relationship.

However, Bunnie noted that her bond with Jelly Roll went from platonic to romantic in July 2016 when she returned to Las Vegas to film some videos and they slept together.

“We’re like drunks with shitty faces,” he recalled. “I’m trying to pick it up, get it in, put it on and take it out, and this guy said, ‘What’s your five-year plan?'”

So, they discussed their goals and Bunnie remembered Jelly Roll saying, “Okay, cool. Let’s do it.”
