Bunnie Xo Shares Her Journey After Divorce
Bunnie Xo is opening up about her life two months after her split from Jelly Roll, revealing how she is embracing a new chapter. The host of the Dumb Blonde podcast recently appeared on TODAY with Jenna Bush Hager and Sheinelle Jones to discuss her New York Times bestselling memoir, Stripped Down, its film adaptation, and her personal growth since the divorce.
Feeling Empowered and Thriving
During the interview, Bunnie expressed that she is thriving and feels invigorated about her future. “Ladies, they should have never let me back out in the streets because I love it here. I love it here and I’m never going back,” she enthusiastically remarked.
Reflecting on her experience, she emphasized the importance of self-care, especially for women who often prioritize others’ needs over their own. “I feel like us as women, we put ourselves aside so much for partners, friends, kids, and it’s like we don’t pour into ourselves. Sometimes you need to be selfish, and you need to pour into yourself,” she said, encouraging others to recognize that difficult times can lead to personal growth.
Staying Focused Amid Challenges
Bunnie compared her focus during this challenging time to that of a racehorse, keeping her blinders on to ignore the public scrutiny surrounding her divorce. “I know when something like that, that’s deeply personal happens, it’s beautifully tragic, but at the same time, there’s always a silver lining,” she stated. She aims to shift the narrative about women, highlighting their achievements beyond their past relationships.
A Summer of New Beginnings
As she enjoys what she calls a “baddie Bunnie summer,” Bunnie has been busy reconnecting with herself and meeting new people. She humorously described her current dating life as a “boy buffet,” indicating that she is enjoying her freedom and newfound happiness.
Bunnie has also been celebrating the success of her memoir and looks forward to its adaptation into a film. She expressed her disbelief at the opportunities that have come her way, stating, “The universe is just rewarding me so much. And I’m just so thankful.” In addition, she plans to pursue online studies at Arizona State University, focusing on women’s health and hormone balance—an area she is passionate about due to her own IVF journey.
Future Aspirations
Despite the challenges of her recent divorce, Bunnie remains optimistic about her future, particularly regarding her desire to become a mother. “I definitely still want to have a baby, and that’s going to be one of the newest chapters in my next book,” she revealed, hinting at her ongoing journey toward motherhood.
After news of their divorce surfaced, Bunnie addressed rumors and the reasons behind the split in a recent episode of her podcast, ensuring that the matter remains a private family issue. The couple, who first met in 2015, was married in August 2016, and sources indicate that the decision to part ways was mutual.
