Bunnie Xo teased on TikTok a podcast episode possibly addressing her split from Jelly Roll after nearly 10 years of marriage

Jelly Roll filed for divorce on May 18 in Williamson County, Tennessee, citing irreconcilable differences

A source previously told PEOPLE of their separation that the two "always had a complicated dynamic" and "were no longer on the same page about certain things"

Bunnie Xo has remained silent since news broke that Jelly Roll filed for divorce after nearly 10 years of marriage. But a cryptic new social media post suggests she may be preparing to speak out.

The media personality, 46, fueled speculation about a possible response when she teased an upcoming episode of her Dumb Blonde podcast in a TikTok video shared on Wednesday, June 17.

In the clip, Bunnie (whose real name is Alisa DeFord) lip-synced to Jelly Roll's song "No Limit Freestyle" while out to dinner with friends. She mouthed along to lyrics that reference her directly, including, "My girl super bad / She look like a human Barbie / I've been known to set it off / But my bitch bad like Cardi."

Bunnie then performed the song's final line — "Have you ever been f---ed" — before the video ended.

She captioned the post, "Podcast coming … 🤏🏼" and included the hashtag "#jellyandbunnie."

Jelly Roll, whose real name is Jason DeFord, filed for divorce in Williamson County, Tenn. on May 18, citing irreconcilable differences. He listed May 9 as the couple's date of separation.

After the news became public, a source close to the country star told PEOPLE that the pair had "always had a complicated dynamic" dating back to the early days of their relationship.

When they first met, Jelly was struggling financially and Bunnie made her living as a sex worker. The two initially formed a platonic friendship before beginning a romantic relationship in 2016. They married on Aug. 30, 2016, in a courthouse ceremony the same night they got engaged.

"When they first got together, they were both in a very different place in their lives," the source said. "There was a lot of chaos, ups and downs, and they built a life together through all of that."

The source added that Jelly Roll — whose career has skyrocketed in recent years and who has undergone a major health transformation where he shed nearly 300 lbs. — has "changed a lot."

"He's very focused on his future, his health and being around for a long time," the source said. "There wasn't a moment where everything fell apart. They still love each other but were no longer on the same page about certain things, including what they wanted their future to look like. People saw the public side of things, but there was a lot more going on privately."

Throughout their marriage, the couple spoke candidly about both the challenges they faced and the work they put into their relationship. In her 2026 memoir Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic, Bunnie revealed that Jelly Roll had a 10-month affair in 2018, during which the pair briefly split.

During an October 2025 interview, Jelly admitted the infidelity was "one of the worst moments in my adulthood" but exclaimed he was "proud of who we are today."

The couple were also vocal about their IVF journey and their hope to welcome a child through surrogacy. (Jelly is dad to daughter Bailee, 18, and son Noah, 9, from previous relationships).

"I think we're just ready for a piece of us," Bunnie told PEOPLE in January of their journey to welcoming a child. "It has not been easy, but I know that God has a plan and he's going to make it work. I really do. I have no doubt in my mind."
