Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo Split in May
Bunnie Xo and Jelly Roll tied the knot in 2016.
As OK! previously reported, the "Thorns" singer (real name: Jason DeFord), 41, quietly filed for divorce from Bunnie Xo on May 19 after 10 years of marriage.
Jelly Roll cited "irreconcilable divorces," listing their date of separation as May 9.
The pair finalized their divorce just two months later, agreeing to divide their assets which included homes, cars, an aircraft and intellectual properties.
Bunnie Xo Said Her DMs Were a 'Boy Buffet'
Bunnie Xo admitted she also had 'a lot of women' in her DMs.
Jelly Roll was also required to pay his ex-wife a confidential one-time lump sum, which eliminated any potential spousal support claims that could've been fought over in court.
Since the end of her decade-long marriage, Bunnie Xo has been candid about embracing her new single era, even jokingly referring to her social media DMs as a "boy buffet."
"I have a lot of women in my DMs too...it’s so much fun in there. I don’t even know who to reply to. It’s a lot. It’s a lot," she teased during an appearance on TODAY With Jenna & Sheinelle.
