Well, that’s one way to put it.
TMZ broke the news that Jelly Roll, whose real name is Jason DeFord, filed for divorce from his wife Bunnie Xo, whose real name is Alisa DeFord, back on May 18 in Williamson County Chancery Court, just outside of Nashville.
Whiskey Riff obtained a copy of the divorce complaint that was filed by the “Save Me” singer, which reveals that the couple separated on May 9, a week and a half before the request for a divorce was filed. He cites “irreconcilable differences” as the grounds for the divorce, which in Tennessee is a no-fault grounds for divorce that means that the parties agree on the terms of the separation.
And in the wake of the announcement, Bunnie released a tell-all episode of her Dumb Blonde podcast (which has since been removed from her Youtube page), where she revealed a lot of why they decided to split, addressed dating rumors and revealed that Jelly was already dating, and she also explained the straw that broke the camels back, so to speak, that led to the divorce papers being filed, which Jelly did after a huge fight they had on Mother’s Day.
She encouraged fans watching her podcast to slide into her soon-to-be husband’s DMs, and she said that she was ready to get back out there, though she also said she wanted to take some time for herself, in addition to later revealing some of the messages that have been sent to her on Instagram… I can only imagine what her DMs look like right now.
But it seems like someone caught her eye, as Bunnie was out at Jelly Roll’s own bar on Broadway in Nashville, Jelly Roll’s Goodnight Nashville, with a new man. TMZ shared video of her making out with 24-year-old Dylan Wolf (Bunnie is 46), who is apparently a star on the new Netflix reality show “Calabasas Confidential.” I think they use the word star pretty loosely, but whatever…
It apparently happened on the Fourth of July, as Bunnie and Dylan were hanging out int he VIP section on the rooftop bar, and you can see them talking and kissing in the video below:
Honestly, it’s the strangest divorce I’ve ever seen… they’re still best friends, are having a baby together (via surrogate), and Bunnie is bringing her new flings to her ex’s bar? I just don’t understand… now, I don’t think this is anything more than them just having fun, but still… this whole divorce thing just makes absolutely no sense to me, but I digress…
Dylan also posted a video on TikTok hinting that a podcast with her, where they will seemingly reveal the nature of this relationship, “soon”:
“Undeleted Pod coming soon.”
Based on how open Bunnie has seemingly been thus far, I don’t see why they wouldn’t spill the details on this Fourth of July date too:

And of course, because there’s been so much attention on this viral video, and Dylan is milking it for all it’s worth. He’s posted a few videos hinting at their weekend since the video came out, including one where he specifically addressed the video of him and Bunnie, which is more just a video to promote whatever “brand” he’s trying to shill to her followers:
“What’s going on guys? Wanted to come on here on a serious note and address everything thats’ been going on recently.
There’s been quite a bit of speculation and a few headlines that have surfaced the last several days, specifically Fourth of July weekend in Nashville when I was out spotted with Bunnie, and I thought it was only fair to you guys to address the elephant in the room.
And that is, Dylan, where did you get that hat? I’m super glad you guys have asked, because it’s my brand, Country Club. Website link in bio… shoutout to Bunnie, podcast drops on Thursday at midnight.”
Don’t worry, I’m sure we’ll get to hear all about it on the podcast:

But he’s teasing a little bit about what happened, speaking to TMZ last night while leaving a bar, and when he was asked if he’d been in contact with Bunnie since the weekend, and he said:
“Yeah, I just talked to her not too long ago. I talked to her earlier today. I love Bunnie. She’s great. She’s got a lot going on right now but I’m here for her. She’s super sick.”
He revealed he hasn’t spoken to Jelly Roll (duh), but he defended Bunnie having a fling with a much younger man, saying she’s got a “lot going on” and she’s obviously single now:
“I haven’t said anything but I’ve got love for the both of them. Obviously, they’ve got a lot going on right now. She’s single, she’s young and having fun.”
And when asked about their large age gap, Wolf isn’t worried about that at all, having a heck of a line about his attraction to her:
“Sometimes a cowboy wants to hunt cougars and rabbits, so that’s all it is.”
Fair enough, I guess…
He also called the estranged couple’s ongoing divorce “sad to see.”
“But like I said, you just want the best for everybody. All glory to God.”
He perviously revealed that a podcast with Bunnie is dropping tonight, so I’m sure all will be revealed there.
