When a convict slides into your DMs asking for a date after finishing a 10-year stretch, you’d think most people would just delete and move on. But Bunnie XO? She saw an opportunity to land a punch on her estranged husband.

During Thursday’s episode of her“Dumb Blonde”podcast, the podcaster read aloud a direct message from an incarcerated man expressing interest in taking her out once he’s released from prison. Her friends on the show joked that he simply needed some companionship after a decade behind bars. That’s when Bunnie delivered the real headline: a comparison that hit hard and fast. She essentially suggested that being married to Jelly Roll for 10 years felt like serving time herself—a casual but cutting remark that says everything about how she’s processing their split.

The timing of all this is worth noting. Jelly Roll filed for divorce back in May after their 10-year marriage, and while the two appear to be maintaining civility publicly, Bunnie hasn’t shied away from sharing her perspective whenever a microphone is nearby. She’s been candid about the post-divorce attention she’s getting, noting that her inbox is suddenly flooded with men“shooting their shot”—and apparently, that now includes inmates counting down the days until release.

What makes this moment telling isn’t just the quip itself, but what it signals about how Bunnie’s processing the end of their relationship. Rather than retreating or playing the dignified ex, she’s using her platform to reframe the narrative. The marriage that lasted a decade is now being framed as something restrictive, something she endured rather than enjoyed. It’s a subtle but significant shift in tone from“we grew apart”to“I was trapped.”

Jelly Roll is reportedly moving on and dating again, which only adds another layer to Bunnie’s willingness to keep the conversation going. Whether this is therapeutic venting, genuine frustration, or simply good podcast content, one thing’s clear: the divorce fallout is far from over, and Bunnie’s got plenty more to say.
