Bunnie Xo reveals the fight that led to Jelly Roll divorce filing in bombshell tell-all video

Bunnie Xo finally addressed her bombshell divorce from Jelly Roll after 10 years of marriage.
“J and I have never really been good at having disagreements. So, we were the type of couple who never argued. So, he would be holding things in. I would be holding things in, and that’s a recipe for disaster,” Bunnie said on Thursday’s episode of her “Dumb Blonde” podcast.
“We always preach you gotta be comfortable having the uncomfortable conversations, and we did that for eight years in. Then the past year and a half, we kind of got away from that because, we’re in a different life right now.”
Bunnie continued, recalling their final argument that went down on Mother’s Day where she told him to “file the f–king divorce papers.”
“On Mother’s Day, we had a little bit of an argument, which I don’t think the details are necessary. And, in that argument, I was so fed up and so tired that I just looked at him and said, ‘Well, then file the f–king divorce papers,’” she said.
“In our relationship, that is the one cardinal thing that you don’t say, even though my husband has said it numerous times,” she noted. “But, when I say it, it really holds weight because I’m not the type of person who says what I don’t mean.”
The conversation ended with Bunnie packing a bag and leaving the Grammy winner, she said.
The “Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic” host added that their IVF journey had also taken a toll on their marriage.
“In the last two years when we decided to have a baby, I had to do IVF. My hat goes off to any woman, family, couple who is going through IVF because let me tell you something dude that is one of the loneliest, darkest journeys you will be on,” she said, noting that process “completely wrecked” her.
“Yes, everybody gets to see the reward at the end, but it is not all bells and whistles. It is not a beautiful journey,” Bunnie continued. “It wrecked me emotionally, spiritually, physically. It was so hard on me that for the past year and a half, I became a shell of the person I was because I’m doing this IVF journey. I’m fighting hard just to you know be able to produce enough eggs to make a baby with my husband, especially at my age.”
The process became more difficult as she revealed that Jelly Roll “had low sperm count” so “he had to get on a bunch of hormones and a whole bunch of medication which turned him into a freaking nightmare to be around.”
Bunnie continued, revealing that the couple has “lost four embryos” throughout their experience.
“We’ve had three transfers but we lost the the two twins that we were going to try to have and then we lost the other two. And anybody that’s going through that and has to deal with these miscarriages, it’s gut-wrenching. It is so heartbreaking,” she confessed.
On Monday, news broke that Jelly Roll, 41, quietly pulled the plug on his and Bunnie Xo’s marriage on May 18, citing “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their split, Page Six confirmed.
The country singer filed for divorce in Williamson County, Tennessee, where he and the “Dumb Blonde” podcast host, 46, lived together.
The exes agreed to divide their assets and debts.
Movers were photographed outside of the estranged couple’s Tennessee home on Monday, though it’s unclear whose items were being packed up.
The “Wild Ones” crooner, born Jason Bradley DeFord, hinted at trouble in paradise when he opted out of wearing his wedding ring while performing at the 2026 CMA Fest in Nashville earlier this month.
Eagle-eyed fans on social media also noticed that he has ditched his ring since around February or March.
As for Bunnie, born Alisa DeFord, she compared exes to trash cans in a cheeky video of herself wearing a revenge outfit, captioning it, “Intuition when that s–t don’t add up.”
Additionally, the internet personality shared a photo of herself posing in lingerie shortly before news of their split broke.
Jelly Roll and Bunnie tied the knot in Las Vegas in 2016, but they briefly split in 2018.
They later reconciled and renewed their vows in 2023.
The “Somebody Save Me” singer has previously admitted to having cheated on his estranged wife ahead of getting sober from hard drugs.

James Van Der Beek’s widow shares tender tribute on first wedding anniversary since his death

James Van Der Beek’s widow, Kimberly, shared a touching message about the actor on what would have been their 16th wedding anniversary.
The “Dawson’s Creek” alum died in February after a battle with colorectal cancer. He was 48 years old.
On Sunday, Kimberly honored their anniversary by posting selfies of them together on Instagram as well as a pic of him in a group hug with their six children.
“16 years ago I was the luckiest woman in the world to marry @vanderjames,” she wrote. “The beauty of this marriage continues to unfold everyday with all these incredible children we have.”
“He continues to be present and guide us,” she added. “I’m eternally grateful. 🙏🌹😍🥰.”
Van Der Beek married Kimberly — his second wife after his split from his first wife, Heather McComb — on Aug. 1, 2010. They shared kids Olivia, 15, Joshua, 14, Annabel, 12, Emilia, 10, Gwendolyn, 8, and Jeremiah, 4.
Kimberly, 44, has continued to honor her late husband since his death. Last month, she shared throwback pics with him on Instagram, captioning her post, “Baby, love does not die. Death does not part.”
She also shared intimate pics of him being a dad to their children on the first Father’s Day since his death, writing, “Missing you so much and thinking of how magnificent you were in every single way today. And somehow, from the other side? You continue to parent. You’re a marvel. 🩵.”
Back in May, she acknowledged that she wasn’t doing well three months after Van Der Beek’s tragic death.
“To say I’m heartbroken is a severe understatement,” the film producer candidly wrote.
“Words just don’t capture what grief is. The comforts of shock have worn off. The reality is settling in … and I miss him. We all miss him.”
Still, she expressed her gratitude for the “outpouring of support” that been “beyond anything [she] could have ever expected.”
“I am deeply grateful. There is so much more to share here. And in time — I will,” she wrote.
McComb also revealed last month how she was on great terms with the “Varsity Blues” star despite their divorce in June 2010 after nearly seven years of marriage. She shared that he gave her his blessing when she told him she was getting married again to actor Scott Michael Campbell before he died.
McComb told Us Weekly of her ex-husband and Kimberly’s reaction, “They both were so full of love and support and excitement.”
“I know that James would want me to celebrate our love, just like he celebrated the love that he had for Kimberly, which was so beautiful.”

Modest Mouse boots guitarist Simon O’Connor from tour after allegations he sent inappropriate messages to minor

Modest Mouse has booted guitarist Simon O’Connor from its upcoming North American tour after he was accused of sending inappropriate messages to a teen fan.
The indie rock band announced Friday that O’Connor, who is in his 40s, will not join them on the road beginning Tuesday in Ojai, Calif.
“Simon O’Connor will not be joining us on the upcoming tour,” the “Float On” rockers wrote on Instagram.
“The good news is that Seth Jabour of Les Savy Fav will be jumping in to play guitar. We look forward to being out there with you all.”
On July 26, O’Connor was accused by a Reddit user, who identified themselves as a 17-year-old fan, of sending them “an erotic image” and commenting on their “bikini pics” through Instagram direct message.
The user, who posted a series of screenshots of their alleged conversations on the social platform, said they were 16 at the time of the interaction and had their date of birth listed in their Instagram profile.
O’Connor allegedly opened the conversation with a sticker reading, “Simon calls your bluff, BUZZZ,” before sending what the user described as a sexually explicit meme of a naked man.
The user responded by suggesting O’Connor’s account had been hacked.
“Wish I was hacked just had a party night and looking at everything with one eye ya know,” O’Connor allegedly replied.
“But you did blindside me with a gaggle of likes and then very little intro besides bikini pics so we are both to blame.”
O’Connor’s message was quickly deleted, but the recipient said they had taken a screenshot.
The user also alleged O’Connor viewed an Instagram Story counting down to their 17th birthday before later messaging, “sorry.”
O’Connor responded Monday in a lengthy statement, apologizing to the fan while saying he had mistaken them for someone he believed had repeatedly harassed him online using fake accounts.
“Throughout my adult life, there has been a person who has popped up from time to time with the intention of, for lack of a better term, messing with me,” O’Connor wrote on the Modest Mouse subreddit.
“I assumed that this was the same person I had dealt with before and, with poor judgement, I decided to reach out with a tasteless meme, a sticker that read ‘Simon calls your bluff,’ and an attempt to indicate that I recognized the ‘barrage of likes’ and similar photo content from the previous profiles…. Almost a ‘gotcha.’”
“After a few minutes, I realized that I had made a mistake and this was not the person who I had dealt with before,” he continued. “I unsent the messages and immediately ceased communication.”
“I’m genuinely sorry to the person who received those messages,” O’Connor added.
“They didn’t deserve to be put in that position, and I’m sorry for the stress and attention this has brought them. I know some people will choose not to believe me, and I understand that. I can’t change what’s happened.
“All I can do is tell the truth, take responsibility for my mistake, and apologize.”
The guitarist also wrote that he “unequivocally” opposes “any sexual behavior towards minors.”
The band did not explain O’Connor’s tour absence or say whether he remains a member in their statement Friday.
O’Connor joined Modest Mouse’s touring lineup in 2021 after performing in New York City’s music scene as Simon Doom.
He also appears on the band’s latest album, “An Eraser and a Maze,” which was released in June.
Fronted by Isaac Brock, Modest Mouse has been one of indie rock’s biggest bands since breaking through with the 2004 hit “Float On” and the platinum-selling album “Good News for People Who Love Bad News.”
Brock is now the band’s only original member following drummer Jeremiah Green’s death from cancer in 2022 at age 45.

Vincent Pastore mourned by ‘Sopranos’ cast after his death

The “Sopranos” cast is mourning the loss of one of their own.
Shortly after news broke that Vincent Pastore, who played Salvatore “Big Pussy” Bonpensiero on HBO’s “The Sopranos,” had died, his co-stars began paying tribute to him.
In a statement to Page Six, Edie Falco said, “It’s an awful loss. So unexpected.”
The actress, who played Carmela Soprano on the series, added, “Vinnie was always so full of life.”
Michael Imperioli, who played Christopher Moltisanti on “The Sopranos,” called Pastore a “beloved friend and collaborator” in a heartfelt Instagram post.
“This is a hard one for us, it seems like I’ve known Vinny forever,” he continued. “We did lots of work together and traveled all over the USA as well as Italy and Australia. Lots of good times. Lots of laughs.”
Imperioli concluded his tribute by noting that Pastore “was a kind hearted brother who cared deeply about his family and friends,” noting, “I will miss him always.”
In a post shared to her Instagram Stories, Lorraine Bracco wrote, “Such a funny & charming man…just a beautiful soul.”
The actress, who played Jennifer Melfi on the hit show, called Pastore’s death “absolutely heartbreaking 💔.”
Dominic Chianese, who played Corrado “Junior” Soprano, wrote in an Instagram post, “We lost a friend today.”
“Paying respect and sending Love in tribute,” he continued. “You were a gem Vinnie🤍.”
Page Six confirmed Pastore’s death at the age of 80 on Saturday, with sources telling us he was found dead by a neighbor in his home on City Island in the Bronx.
Police sources told Page Six the actor had died of natural causes.
In a heartfelt statement to Page Six, Pastore’s longtime manager, Robert Attermann, mourned his death in a lengthy statement.
“I had the privilege of representing Vinny for more than 30 years, long before ‘The Sopranos’ made him a household name,” Attermann said. “To the world, he will always be remembered as the unforgettable ‘Big Pussy,’ but to those of us who knew him, he was so much more.”
Attermann called Pastore “one of the kindest, most generous people [he’d] ever known,” noting that he “treated everyone with warmth and respect, never turning down a fan who wanted a photograph or an autograph.”
“He loved being an actor. He was passionate about his craft and was always encouraging, respectful, and generous with young actors, taking the time to offer guidance and support whenever he could,” he continued, calling Pastore’s loss “deeply personal” for him.
Attermann said he’ll remember Pastore not just for his “remarkable career but also the incredible person he was.”
“I will miss his friendship, his loyalty, his humor, and his heart,” he wrote, offering his condolences to Pastore’s family, friends, colleagues and “countless fans whose lives he touched.”
He noted that the actor “leaves behind a legacy that extends far beyond his memorable performances” and that he’ll “be greatly missed and never forgotten.”
Pastore starred on “The Sopranos” for the iconic show’s first two seasons. He returned for a recurring role in Season 3 and returned in a guest capacity for the final two seasons.
“The Sopranos,” largely regarded as one of the greatest dramas of all time, aired for six seasons between 1999 and 2007, earning critical acclaim and numerous awards throughout its run.
Pastore joins the growing list of “Sopranos” cast members who have died over the years, including James Gandolfini, Nancy Marchand and Jerry Adler — to name a few.
