Jelly Roll's net worth revealed as singer files for divorce from Bunnie Xo after nearly 10 years
Jelly Roll's net worth has been revealed following the break-up of his marriage to Bunnie XO, who he was married to for close to a decade.
TMZ first reported that the 41-year-old filed for divorce in Williamson County, Tennessee on May 18, with an insider source close to the couple saying the decision to separate was entirely 'mutual' and that the pair are keeping details as a 'private family matter'.
The timing of the divorce is certainly a surprising one considering the pair appeared at the Grammys back in February and were visibly affectionate throughout the ceremony.
They were even seen kissing on the red carpet together and celebrating as Roll, real name Jason DeFord, won Best Contemporary Country Album at the awards show.

Amid the recent breakup, Roll's name has been put back into the public eye, leading to people asking what everyone wants to know about celebrities: What's their net worth?
Jelly Roll's net worth
Multiple outlets, including Parade, report that Roll has a net worth of $16 million, which you'd think is pretty sizeable.
However, such figure is actually pretty low compared to some of his music colleagues, likely due to previous felon convictions limiting the artist's opportunities.
Roll's previous convictions include robbery and drug possession, and he spent a decade in and out of prison due to these charges.
The musician has faced issues when attempting to travel internationally for global tours, so he applied for a pardon in 2025.
That was officially granted by Tennessee Governor Bill Lee in December of that year, who described the country singer's journey as 'remarkable'.
"It's a redemptive, powerful story, which is what you look for and what you hope for," he added to the Associated Press.
Prior to the pardon being granted, Roll told the Tennessee board: "I want to be an inspiration for people who are now where I used to be - to let them know that change is truly possible."
Roll spoke on The Joe Rogan Experience podcast in 2023 about the time he spent behind bars.
He said: "At 16, I was charged as an adult for a charge. It was a heinous crime, admittedly. It was horrible. We robbed a couple of guys for some weed, but they called the police because we took some money and some stuff.
"It was an armed robbery, we went in there with a gun, I regret it every day of my life."
