Bunnie Xo<\/strong><\/a> isn\u2019t here for the body-shaming \u2014 and she\u2019s making that crystal clear. The wife of country music star Jelly Roll<\/strong><\/a> is speaking out after fans flooded her social media with comments about her husband’s appearance following his over 100-pound weight loss<\/a>.<\/p>\n While the internet is busy praising how \u201chot\u201d Jelly Roll looks now, Bunnie is reminding everyone that his value, and his looks, go way beyond the number on a scale.<\/p>\n The podcast host <\/a>and influencer, whose real name is Alyssa DeFord, took to TikTok on Saturday, September 27, to respond to a wave of comments about Jelly Roll\u2019s look. Fans had been filling her feed with messages like, \u201cGirl, your man is so hot now that he lost all that weight.\u201d<\/p>\n Bunnie finally fired back, making it clear that her husband of nearly a decade<\/a> has always been attractive \u2014 no matter his size.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s always had the same face. He\u2019s always had the same heart. He\u2019s always had the same soul,\u201d she said in her TikTok, defending Jelly Roll\u2019s character.<\/p>\n \u200b\u200bRather than focusing on looks, Bunnie encouraged fans to shift the conversation toward something more meaningful; health<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cI think the most appropriate thing here to say is that he looks so much healthier now that he\u2019s lost weight,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n The 44-year-old \u201cDumb Blonde Podcast<\/a>\u201d host ended her video with a powerful reminder not to judge others based on appearance. \u201cWe\u2019ve gotta stop living in a shallow world guys. Because you know what, you might miss out on the best love of your life by judging somebody by their weight.\u201d<\/p>\n Bunnie captioned the clip with a sweet note, saying, \u201cHe\u2019s been that dude. I\u2019ll forever be cheering him on no matter what weight he is.\u201d<\/p>\n Fans were quick to rally behind her message. One supporter commented, \u201cYall are just seeing how great jelly roll has always been?? As if @Bunnie Xo would be with anything less??? 10\u2019s across the board.\u201d<\/p>\n Another wrote, \u201cThis is the sh** we talk about when us big folk have major weight loss. We were just as important before\u201d \u2014 a comment Bunnie hearted.<\/p>\n Jelly Roll, 40, has lost over 100 pounds<\/a> since beginning his fitness journey in 2022. At one point, the Grammy-nominated artist weighed around 550 pounds.<\/p>\n In an interview with Music Mayhem<\/a>, he revealed that one of his biggest goals for 2023 was to prioritize his health and finally \u201cconquer the demon\u201d of weight that had followed him since childhood.<\/p>\n His recent progress hasn\u2019t gone unnoticed. On September 15, the \u201cWild Ones\u201d singer joked on Instagram<\/a>, \u201cI can fit in Louis Vuitton now. Pray for my bank account.\u201d<\/p>\n Despite the rise in popularity of medications like Ozempic, Jelly Roll has chosen a more natural path. While he\u2019s open-minded about GLP-1 medications, he admitted that the potential side effects made him hesitant.<\/p>\n “I just was afraid of it … As a singer, few things scare me more than acid reflux. Like, you’ll watch me get up out of a bed, I’ll burp and wake up panicked and go take something for it. You know? Because that stuff will just rip the vocal cords,\u201d he acknowledged on Bunnie\u2019s podcast.<\/a><\/p>\n This story was originally reported by Parade<\/a> on Sep 27, 2025, where it first appeared in the News<\/a> section.
