Bunnie Xo is having some flirty fun after Jelly Roll’s dramatic weight loss.
In a TikTok video shared on Friday, Aug. 15 by the podcast host, Bunnie can be seen playfully bodyslamming the country star against a rock.
“Bestie #jellyandbunnie,” Bunnie captioned the post.
In the clip, Jelly, 40, is sporting an all black ensemble with a backwards baseball cap and standing against a rock wall while his wife is sporting a black tank top with a flannel shirt around her waist and black and white slides.
Bunnie, 45, leans in for a bodyslam before sweetly kissing the “Save Me” hitmaker’s cheek and giving him a hug. Jelly then gives her butt a playful squeeze before they share another kiss.
“When you have to check and make sure he’s still your squish after all the weight loss,” Bunnie wrote in the text overlaying the video.
In April, Jelly revealed on Pat McAfee’s Big Night Aht live show that he lost nearly 200 lbs. since starting his weight loss journey in 2022.
“I started at 540 lbs.,” the “Wild Ones” singer said. “I’m 357 lbs. [as of] this morning, baby!”
Jelly then said he planned to “lose another 100 lbs. to go skydiving with my wife in Sweden, baby!”

In December 2024, he opened up about his weight and his desire to lose more of it on Bunnie’s Dumb Blonde podcast.
“What I want the world to know, and I want people to see … is that I didn’t become successful because of my weight. I became successful in spite of it. I somehow managed to be this successful carrying 550 pounds. That’s insane,” said Jelly, who referred to himself as “morbidly obese” at the time.
During the podcast interview, he further elaborated on his ambitions.
“I wanna be on the cover of Men’s Health by March of 2026,” said Jelly, noting that it was the first time he ever publicly shared that dream. “That’s my new goal. I wanna have one of the biggest transformations.”
Bunnie shared her support for Jelly, adding that his goal made her “so giddy.”
Jelly opened up to PEOPLE in November 2024 about his struggle with food addiction and how he had to change the way he “looked at food for the last 39 years” to lose weight.
“Nobody in my house ever had [a healthy relationship with food], so that was the hard part, really fighting that demon at first and getting into that discipline and that commitment,” he said. “But once you get into that discipline and commitment, it’s like an avalanche. Once that little snowball started rolling, it was on its way.”
