Jelly Roll has quietly taken a break from social media due to online bullying, according to his wife, Bunnie XO. Bunnie, whose real name is Alisa DeFord, revealed the news in a TikTok video Sunday, which was a snippet from Wednesday's episode of her podcast, "Dumb Blonde." "My husband got off the internet because he is so tired of being bullied about his ... weight," Bunnie, 44, said. "And that makes me want to cry because he is the sweetest angel baby. My husband doesn’t show it to you guys, but I’m going to have a very vulnerable moment here. It hurts him." "The internet can say whatever ... they want about you and they say, 'You’re a celebrity. You’re supposed to be able to handle it,'" she added. "Enough is enough." "Don't bully people because you never know where they are mentally," Bunnie concluded. USA TODAY has reached out to a rep for Jelly Roll for comment. Jelly Roll, 39, recently revealed he'd lost weight while training for a 5K in early May. "I'm probably down 70-something pounds," the 2024 best new artist Grammy nominee, whose real name is Jason Bradley DeFord, told People in an interview published April 13.
