Jelly Roll has been making headlines not just for his music, but for his remarkable weight loss. Over the past two years, the "Son of a Sinner" singer has dropped 200 pounds, a transformation his wife, Bunnie XO, didn't let pass without a little fun. In a TikTok video shared on August 15, Bunnie joked, "When you have to check and make sure he's still your squish after all the weight loss," as she playfully body-slammed her husband twice against a rock wall. Jelly Roll reacted with a surprised "Whoa" before teasing her to do it again. After the second slam, he pulled Bunnie in for a kiss and hug, giving her a playful squeeze.
Fans have been quick to notice Jelly Roll's transformation, leaving supportive comments on the video. One wrote, "He looks like he just gained so many years back! We love and appreciate a healthy Jelly Roll." Another commented, "He looks absolutely amazing keep up the amazing working Jelly." A third added, "Ohh my gosh he's lost so much weight he looks great."
Jelly Roll's weight-loss journey has been years in the making. He began at 540 pounds and has steadily reduced his weight, reaching 357 pounds by April and aiming to lose even more so he can enjoy adventurous activities with his wife, including skydiving in Sweden. His transformation has been motivated by a desire to improve his health and experience life more fully, from rollercoasters and bull riding to skydiving and even wrestling an alligator. Earlier this month, he also shared that he is close to reaching another milestone, having lost 200 pounds so far, with plans to continue until he reaches his ideal goal.
The singer has been open about his lifelong struggle with obesity, sharing in an interview on Stephanie McMahon's podcast What's Your Story? that he gained weight at a very young age and had surpassed 300 pounds by the time he finished middle school. By 2023, he had lost 70 pounds and even trained for a 5k race, showing his commitment to a healthier lifestyle and proving that he was determined to continue working toward his goals.
