Jelly Roll’s 18-year-old daughter Bailee Ann DeFord has issued a fiery warning to fans speculating about her father’s divorce from Bunnie Xo, insisting the real story would leave people stunned.
DeFord went on a rant during a live TikTok session on Sunday, defending her father and demanding that people stop bombarding her with messages about the split.
“Never come for my father’s name again. I’m done,” she said. “Get fk out of my DMs, out of my comments, out of my life with that s–t. I don’t care.”
She emphasized that neither Jelly Roll nor Bunnie had cheated, but teased that the truth behind their separation would reframe everything people think they know.
“You have no idea what happened and wait until you find out. Just f-king wait. Because I promise you that the view you have of not only the situation, but your relationship and the internet as a whole is f-king crumbling the day I open my mouth.”
She added: “It’s not a f-king difference of opinion. Nobody else lived in it, so don’t f–king yourself.”
This is not the first time DeFord has spoken out.
Last month she described herself as “disgusted” by how invested people were in what she called “a very clearly private family matter,” adding “Worry about your house, not mine” and vowing she was “not talking about it yet.”
She also called for compassion amid the spotlight, thanking those who had shown her empathy, while noting that a public profile doesn’t mean “we throw away our human decency.”
Page six confirmed last month that Jelly Roll, 41, filed for divorce from Bunnie, 46, in Williamson County, Tennessee, on May 18 after nearly a decade of marriage.
The couple finalized their divorce on Friday.
Despite the split, Bunnie opened up about her Stupid blonde podcast that the exes still intend to have a child together after IVF treatment, a plan their respective lawyers apparently advised against given the divorce settlement, according to the dissolution of marriage agreement obtained by Page six.
DeFord is Jelly Roll’s daughter with his ex Felicia Beckwith. He also has a nine-year-old son, Noah, with ex Melisa Ann Cowell.
