    Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo's sex life is better now that he is not "so big"

    The 46-year-old model admitted it was challenging for them to get intimate when the 41-year-old rapper-and-singer weighed 540 pounds.


    Bunnie - who has been married to Jelly since 2016 - told Us Weekly: "We always had a sex life, but there were mountains and valleys that we had to go through - especially when he was so big."

    The Dumb Blonde podcast host - real name Alisa DeFord - shared her love for her spouse's "excitement and his new zest for life" since he dropped to 265 pounds.

    Bunnie added: "It's so childlike and just giddy - just seeing him get to be the man that I always saw that he was.

    "Even when he was 500 pounds, this dude was an agile, big guy. I'm like, 'You are athletic under that meat suit.'

    "Now that he has the weight off of him, he just gets to be who I always knew that he was, and I think it's brought a new sense of happiness to him.

    "Any time he's happy, I'm happy."

    Jelly - real name Jason DeFord - recently admitted that getting intimate with Bunnie as a 540-pound man was "horrible" and compared it to "having to play Twister".

    Appearing on a December 2025 episode of The Joe Rogan Experience podcast, the three-time Grammy award winner - who started his weight-loss journey in 2022 - said: "[Before I lost eight, my] sex life with my wife [Bunnie Xo] was horrible.

    "Dude, I married a f****** big t**** blonde beautiful woman, dog. You know what I mean? I married the kind of woman that makes you smile when you're crying, Joe.

    "I couldn't even get aroused, I was so big. I was having to play Twister to have sex.

    "Left foot here, right foot in the X, you know? Are we in there yet? Tell me if you feel something. I mean, it was bad."

    Bunnie thought Jelly was "beautiful" when he was big, but now she joked about "drooling" over his new slender frame.

    The star - who met her husband at one of his gigs at Las Vegas' Country Saloon in 2015 - recently told People: "We're watching a grown man live his life to the fullest for the first time.

    "He doesn't have that extra weight on him, and he is literally just the happiest little bumblebee that is just flying through the universe right now, and he's doing everything that he hasn't gotten to do, and he's kicking a**.

    "I can't wait to see how it's going to be in another 10 years, especially now with his newfound freedom.

    "He was beautiful before, but now I catch myself drooling looking at him; he looks so good!"
