Bunnie Xo has opened up about her husband Jelly Roll’s powerful health transformation and how it has positively reshaped their lives. The couple, together since 2015, have always been honest about personal struggles, including the country star’s past battle with weight. As Bunnie promotes her memoir, Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic, she reflects on how her husband’s commitment to better health has strengthened their relationship and restored his confidence. For her, the journey has been about much more than appearance — it has been about growth, resilience, and renewed happiness.
Jelly Roll has shared that he decided not to use popular GLP-1 medications like Ozempic or Mounjaro during his weight loss process. Instead, he chose to improve his health through his own approach, wanting lasting change on his own terms. After reaching his heaviest weight in 2020, he committed to turning his life around. The Grammy-nominated artist has openly acknowledged how his former lifestyle impacted his body and expressed gratitude for the opportunity to make meaningful changes.
Bunnie has spoken about how the transformation has influenced their relationship, even discussing it with humor. During a radio interview, she noted that weight loss can change physical proportions because reduced body fat can make certain features appear more pronounced. Medical experts confirm that while weight loss doesn’t increase size, it can affect overall visibility and balance. The couple framed the conversation around confidence rather than misconceptions.
Beyond the physical changes, Bunnie says the most important difference is emotional. Once weighing over 500 pounds, Jelly Roll has lost more than half his body weight. She describes him as energized, joyful, and self-assured. For them, the journey represents reclaiming vitality, strengthening their bond, and embracing a brighter future together.
