Jelly Roll’s teen daughter Bailee Ann is getting candid about her father’s divorce from Bunnie Xo after nearly 10 years of marriage.
In a TikTok livestream on Sunday, July 19, Bailee, 18, addressed rumors of infidelity surrounding her Grammy-winning dad, whose real name is Jason DeFord, 41.
“Nobody cheated,” Bailee said on the livestream. “Period. [Get] the f— out of my comments, my DMs, my live with that s—, I don’t care, I don’t want to talk about it.”
She went on to reiterate that allegedly neither Jelly Roll nor Bunnie, 46, cheated on one another, saying “y’all have no f—ing idea what happened, and wait ‘til y’all find out.”
Bailee said that the public’s “knowledge of the situation” and the former couple’s relationship is not a total view of the reason for Jelly Roll filing for divorce, adding that “the internet in totality is about to f—ing crumble the day that I open my mouth.”
“It’s not a difference in f—ing opinions,” she added. “Nobody else lived in it. So don’t f—ing even. I’m for real so done. Good? Everybody good? We’re on the same page? Cool,” she said, continuing the live and changing the subject.
Bailee first opened up about her father’s divorce in a cryptic TikTok video in June.
“Oh & one more thing I am disgusted at how invested everyone is in a very clearly private family matter,” Bailee Ann wrote over a selfie. “It’s fkn crazy.”
“Go on somewhere yall,” she added at the time. “Worry bout your house- not mine. I’m not speaking on it – yet.”
Jelly Roll filed for divorce in Williamson County, Tenn. on May 18, according to documents obtained and court records previously viewed by PEOPLE. Their date of separation was listed in the documents as May 9, and the grounds for divorce are listed as irreconcilable differences. TMZ was first to report the news.

The filing marked a surprising turn for a couple as they have frequently shared their relationship publicly and were celebrating one another in recent months.
Reps for both did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s requests for comment.
On Saturday, July 18, a source told PEOPLE exclusively that Jelly Roll wanted to ensure the divorce settlement was fair.
“There was never any desire to drag the process out,” a source told PEOPLE exclusively of the country musician and the Dumb Blonde podcast host (whose real name is Alisa DeFord), who finalized their divorce earlier in July. “They both wanted to handle the divorce with respect for one another.”
“He’s a very generous person by nature and wanted to make sure the divorce was handled fairly and respectfully,” the insider added.
