Jelly Roll’s wife, Bunnie Xo, is speaking openly about the country star’s remarkable health transformation and the positive changes it has brought to their lives. The couple, who have been together since 2015, have long been transparent about their personal journey, including the singer’s struggles with weight. As Bunnie promotes her new memoir, Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic, released on February 17, she reflects on the evolution of their relationship and the renewed confidence her husband has gained through his commitment to better health.
In recent interviews, Jelly Roll has shared that he chose not to use popular GLP-1 medications such as Ozempic or Mounjaro during his weight loss journey. Speaking candidly, he explained that his decision was rooted in personal concerns and a desire to approach his health changes in his own way. The Grammy-nominated artist has previously acknowledged the toll his lifestyle once took on his body, expressing gratitude that he was given the opportunity to make lasting improvements. His transformation, which began after he reached his heaviest weight in 2020, has resulted in a dramatic shift not only physically but emotionally as well.
Bunnie Xo has also discussed how the change has influenced their relationship. During a radio appearance, she lightheartedly noted that weight loss can sometimes alter physical appearance due to reduced body fat, a fact supported by medical experts who explain that losing fat in certain areas may make existing features appear more pronounced. Health professionals clarify that while weight loss does not increase size, it can change overall proportions and visibility. The couple’s candid conversation was meant to celebrate confidence and body positivity rather than focus on misconceptions.
Beyond the physical transformation, Bunnie says the most meaningful change has been her husband’s renewed spirit. Once weighing over 500 pounds, Jelly Roll has now lost more than half his body weight and continues to focus on fitness and well-being. According to Bunnie, he carries himself with new confidence, energy, and joy. She describes seeing a lighter, happier version of the man she always knew, saying that his improved health has brought a fresh sense of happiness into their lives. For the couple, the journey has been about far more than numbers on a scale—it has been about reclaiming vitality, self-assurance, and a brighter future together.
