Bunnie XO spent the Fourth of July at Goodnight Nashville, the bar her ex-husband, Jelly Roll, owns.

When the fireworks went off, cameras caught her kissing a 24-year-old reality star.

Now the two of them have told the whole story of how they got there.

On a new episode of her D𝐮mb Blonde podcast, Bunnie XO, 46, and Dylan Wolf, the Calabasas Confidential star, walked through how a reality show, an Instagram follow and a four-hour phone call turned into a summer romance, just weeks after Jelly Roll filed to end their marriage of nearly 10 years.

It Started With a Show She Says She Never Watches

Bunnie said she was going through a very traumatic time in her life, sitting on the couch in her studio house, when Calabasas Confidential came on. She swore she never watches that kind of show. But she saw Dylan and decided she wanted him on her podcast, so she looked him up and followed him on Instagram and TikTok.

“I get a follow on Instagram and TikTok from you, and I just was like, yo, what a smoke show. So I follow her back,” Dylan said.

He sent her a message saying he was a fan of hers and of Jelly Roll, though he admitted on the podcast that, gun to his head, he could not have named a single Jelly Roll song. A podcast date got scheduled and then fell through.

Then the divorce news broke. Jelly Roll filed on May 18 in Williamson County, and Bunnie has said it followed a huge fight on Mother’s Day. When the split went public in mid-June, Bunnie mentioned that her DMs were flooded and that she had only answered two. Dylan asked if his was one of them. She told him it was not, but he could try again.

A Four-Hour Phone Call and a Kiss Under the Fireworks

The texting did not go well. Bunnie said he had no personality through text, and Dylan admitted he is not the best texter. So on July 3, she told him to just call her. They talked for four hours, she invited him to Nashville, and he was on a 6 a.m. flight the next morning. By that night, they were kissing under the fireworks at Goodnight Nashville.

Bunnie wants one thing understood.

“I never even met him until way after the divorce was filed and all that, just to clear the air,” she said.

She has said she has the time stamps to prove it. She also said she never thought she would date someone younger, but energy does not have an age. They still have not put a label on it. She calls him a lover boy and herself a lover girl. On her podcast, she put it more simply.

“For the first time in my life, the love that I give out is being reciprocated,” she said.

Fans who watched Bunnie and Jelly Roll build a marriage from a Las Vegas bar to the Grammys stage are now watching Bunnie tell her next love story on a podcast, and the kiss that got everyone talking happened under the fireworks at his own bar.
