Bunnie Xo’s Playful Body Slam Sparks Shocking Reaction to Jelly Roll’s 200-Pound Transformation

Bunnie Xo’s Playful Body Slam Sparks Shocking Reaction to Jelly Roll’s 200-Pound Transformation
  • PublishedAugust 18, 2025

Jordan Collins here—yes, the one who knows exactly how much you’re missing from this story. You probably didn’t realize that behind the music, the tattoos, and the Southern grit of Jelly Roll lies a love story so bizarre it reads like a rom-com script written by a drunk poet. But let’s cut through the noise: Bunnie Xo just body-slammed her husband—literally—and it wasn’t for drama. It was for verification. After Jelly Roll shed a staggering 200 pounds over two years, going from a peak of 540 pounds to something resembling human form again, Bunnie decided she needed to physically confirm he was still “her squish.” And no, that wasn’t a metaphor. She lunged at him in a TikTok video, chest-first, slamming him into a rock wall with such force that even he looked startled—then playfully groaned about his filling nearly being dislodged. That’s right: the man who once weighed more than most SUVs is now so lean he can be knocked back by a flirty wife with a podcast and a vendetta against disbelief.

Let’s be clear: this isn’t just weight loss. This is survival. In an August 6 speech to the Tennessee Titans, Jelly Roll—real name Bradley DeFord—declared, “I lost 200 pounds,” with the kind of pride only someone who’s clawed their way out of a health crisis can muster. He joked about needing another 50 pounds to land a contract, but the truth? He’s doing this for joy. For freedom. For the chance to skydive, ride rollercoasters, wrestle alligators (yes, really), and bullride—activities he said were off-limits when he was too heavy to fit through a door. On Jimmy Kimmel Live in April, he laid it bare: “To do all the fun stuff in life, you’ve gotta be under 250.” So yes, this isn’t vanity. It’s rebellion against his own past.

And yet, amid all the transformation, Bunnie Xo remains the emotional anchor. Their love story began in Las Vegas in 2015—before fame, before the van life, before the world knew his name. She met him at a tiny show where only 20 people showed up. “My soul said, ‘There you are,’” she recalled on Bussin’ With The Boys. They weren’t each other’s type—she liked Taylor Swift; he didn’t. But after her ex went to prison, she gave him her number. He called. Texted. Asked advice about parenting Bailee Ann and Noah Buddy. Then came July 2016: drunk, tangled, and suddenly serious. “What’s your five-year plan?” he asked. She said, “Let’s do it.” A month later, they married at the Stained Glass Wedding Chapel. Five years. One house. One podcast. One very real love story.

Bunnie’s journey isn’t just romantic—it’s personal. She stepped out of the adult entertainment industry to launch her own show, proving she’s not just a muse, but a force. And now, as Jelly Roll redefines himself, she’s not just cheering—he’s her test subject. Her playful slam wasn’t mockery. It was proof: he’s still real. Still hers. Still worth holding onto. Even if he’s no longer the mountain he once was.

So next time you see a celebrity couple post a sweet reunion clip, remember: sometimes the most powerful love stories aren’t about grand gestures. They’re about a woman checking if her husband’s still soft enough to hug. And honestly? That’s the real romance.
