Bunnie Xo clarified that her Nickelback posts were unrelated to her marriage situation.
During a recent episode of her “Dumb Blonde” podcast, Bunnie spoke about the rumors.
“I posted a Nickelback song because Nickelback is one of my favorite bands,” she explained.
She emphasized that her choice of a breakup song was unintentional and not a comment on her marriage to Jelly Roll.
“It’s trending on TikTok, so I was like, ‘Oh, f--- yeah, Nickelback’s trending on TikTok, I’m gonna do a TikTok to it,’” she noted.
Bunnie expressed that she had been feeling good at the moment, which contributed to her posting the lingerie photo alongside the TikTok.
“The [divorce] news drops, and I have f------ Nickelback on my f------ page,” she remarked, highlighting the coincidence of timing.
Bunnie Xo said she was simply celebrating a trending song and not hinting at a new relationship.
The influencer expressed her admiration for Kroeger and his band.
She stated, “I have so much respect for Chad. They’re the sweetest humans ever. I would never want to disrespect them.”
Yet, Bunnie acknowledged the fan speculation, saying, “I get where people are trying to put puzzle pieces together. But you’re putting a puzzle together with missing pieces.”
Bunnie humorously dismissed the dating rumors, joking, “I am not with ‘Daddy Chaddy.' There is no f------ way in h---.”
Kroeger, 51, was previously married to musician Avril Lavigne from 2013 to 2015.
