Jelly Roll’s daughter, Bailee Ann DeFord, has told fans they “have no f---ing idea” the real story behind his divorce from Bunnie Xo.

DeFord, 18, shared an explosive rant on TikTok Live defending her father, 41, and demanding fans stop speculating about the reasons for his divorce, Page Six reported.

“Don’t y’all ever come for my father’s name like that again. I’m so done,” she said.

“Get the f--k out of my DMs, out of my comments, my life with that s--t. I don’t care. I don’t want to talk about it.”

DeFord said neither Jelly Roll, whose real name is Jason Bradley DeFord, nor Bunnie Xo, whose real name is Alisa Andrea DeFord, cheated, but the story behind the split would surprise fans.

“Y’all have no f---ing idea what happened, and wait ’till y’all find out. Just f---ing wait,” she said.

“Because I promise y’all, the view of what y’all have of not only the situation, but their relationship and the internet in totality is about to f---ing crumble the day that I open my mouth.”

Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo finalised their divorce earlier this month, and the agreement came with one important stipulation.

The agreement reportedly included a provision prohibiting either party from “trash-talking” the other, as per Page Six.

While details of the settlement between the exes remain confidential, court documents obtained by US outlets revealed the musician would pay a one-time lump sum to his podcast host ex-wife.

Otherwise, it’s understood the exes split other assets, including their homes, cars, an aircraft and intellectual properties.

“While we’re talking about liars, the internet is a liar too,” the 41-year-old said to the crowd during a Saratoga Springs, New York, performance in June.

“This is the only time and the only city I’m going to speak about this, so break your camera phones out now.

“Me and my wife are best friends, we will always be best friends. I will love her. She will probably be the only woman I’ll ever love the way I loved her.”

Like his daughter, Jelly Roll said “nobody cheated on nobody”.

In a now-deleted video on YouTube channel, Bunnie Xo said their marriage came to a head in an argument where she was so exhausted that she told her husband to “file the divorce papers.”

She said the pair did not speak for weeks following the fight, which is when he filed for divorce, a move that she said was a surprise to her.
