Bunnie Xo has shared a new update about her hopes of having a baby with former husband Jelly Roll, months after the country music star filed for divorce following nearly a decade of marriage.
The 46-year-old podcast host and social media personality has spoken openly about her desire to become a mother, having previously explored IVF and surrogacy with the singer.
Despite their separation earlier this year, Bunnie initially suggested that the former couple's plans to welcome a child together would continue.
However, her latest comments have left fans with fresh questions about whether those plans are still moving forward.
Speaking on Todd and Julie Chrisley's Chrisley Confessions podcast in an episode released on November 4, Bunnie addressed the subject directly.
What did Bunnie Xo say about having a baby with Jelly Roll?
During the podcast appearance, Bunnie was asked whether she and Jelly Roll were still planning to have a child together following their divorce.
Rather than confirming that their plans were continuing, Bunnie gave a brief but cryptic response.
"All I can say to that is, 'To be continued,'" she told the hosts.
Her answer stopped short of confirming whether the former couple are still actively pursuing IVF or surrogacy together.
It also left open the possibility that their plans could change as they adjust to life after their separation.
According to Taste of Country, Bunnie had previously indicated that she and Jelly Roll intended to continue their journey towards having a child despite the end of their marriage.
Her latest comments suggest that the situation remains unresolved, at least publicly.
Why did Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo divorce?
Jelly Roll, whose real name is Jason DeFord, filed for divorce in Nashville on May 18, 2026, citing irreconcilable differences.
The filing came shortly after the Academy of Country Music Awards, with news of the separation becoming public in June.
The couple first met in Las Vegas in 2015 and married on August 31, 2016, after Jelly Roll proposed during a performance.
Over the following decade, Bunnie became a prominent supporter of the singer as his career developed from independent music releases to mainstream country success.
They also faced challenges throughout their marriage, including a previous separation in 2018.
Despite those difficulties, the couple renewed their wedding vows in Las Vegas in August 2023.
Their divorce in 2026 therefore came as a surprise to many fans who had followed their relationship over the years.
What happened to their IVF and surrogacy plans?
Bunnie and Jelly Roll publicly discussed their hopes of having a biological child together in June 2024.
They subsequently explored in vitro fertilisation, commonly known as IVF, alongside the possibility of using a gestational surrogate.
IVF involves fertilising an egg with sperm outside the body before transferring an embryo into a uterus.
With gestational surrogacy, another person carries the pregnancy on behalf of the intended parent or parents.
In her February 2026 memoir, Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic, Bunnie revealed that the couple had selected a surrogate.
She also discussed how reaching a more stable point in their lives had encouraged them to think seriously about expanding their family.
However, the couple generally kept the precise details and timeline of their fertility journey private.
Following their divorce, questions emerged about whether they would continue with the arrangements they had previously made.
Bunnie's latest response does not establish whether a surrogate is still involved or whether any treatment is currently underway.
Could Bunnie Xo have a baby with her new boyfriend?
During the same podcast appearance, Todd Chrisley also raised the possibility of Bunnie having a child with her new boyfriend, Dylan Wolf.
Bunnie did not confirm any plans to have a baby with Wolf.
However, she responded to the suggestion by saying: "You never know."
She also remarked that her reproductive organs were still functioning, although she did not provide any further details about her fertility or medical circumstances.
Her comments should not be interpreted as confirmation that she is pregnant or actively trying to conceive with her new partner.
For now, Bunnie has not publicly announced a new pregnancy or a definitive change to her previous surrogacy plans.
Why did Bunnie Xo choose surrogacy?
Bunnie has previously discussed her difficult reproductive health history, including miscarriages, ectopic pregnancies and a traumatic abortion experience.
An ectopic pregnancy occurs when a fertilised egg implants outside the uterus, most commonly in a fallopian tube.
It cannot develop into a viable pregnancy and can become a medical emergency.
Because of her experiences, Bunnie previously explained that she did not want to carry a pregnancy herself.
She and Jelly Roll therefore decided to explore having a child through a gestational surrogate.
Her age was another consideration discussed during their fertility journey, although individual reproductive circumstances vary considerably.
IVF and surrogacy can offer pathways to parenthood for some people, but neither guarantees a successful pregnancy or birth.
What did Bunnie Xo say about becoming a mother in her late 40s?
During Chrisley Confessions, Bunnie also discussed why she remains interested in having a baby at 46.
She explained that her perspective on parenthood has changed considerably as she has grown older.
Looking back on her 20s and 30s, Bunnie suggested that she would not have been as emotionally or financially prepared to raise a child at that stage of her life.
She said she now feels more secure and has a clearer understanding of what she wants from the future.
Bunnie also spoke about wanting to experience aspects of childhood again through raising a baby.
She suggested that becoming a parent later in life may simply be part of her personal journey.
However, she acknowledged that the outcome remains uncertain and that she is trying to remain at peace with the possibility that having another child may not happen.
Does Bunnie Xo already have children?
Although Bunnie has not given birth to a biological child, she has played an important role in raising Jelly Roll's daughter, Bailee Ann.
Jelly Roll gained full custody of Bailee when she was eight years old, and Bunnie helped raise her throughout the couple's marriage.
The two have maintained a close relationship, with both publicly describing their bond as that of a mother and daughter.
Bailee subsequently left for college around the time of Jelly Roll and Bunnie's separation.
Bunnie's desire to have a baby does not diminish the parental relationship she has already developed with her former stepdaughter.
Are Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo still planning to have a child together?
At present, the answer remains unclear.
Although Bunnie previously suggested that their shared plans would continue after the divorce, her November 4 comments did not provide a definitive confirmation.
She has also not announced a pregnancy or revealed whether the fertility arrangements she previously discussed are still in place.
What Bunnie has made clear is that her desire to become a mother has not disappeared following the end of her marriage.
Her latest interview suggests that she remains open to different possibilities as she navigates a new chapter in her personal life.
For fans hoping to learn whether she and Jelly Roll will eventually welcome a child together, further clarification will have to come from the former couple themselves.
