After her divorce from Jelly Roll, Bunnie Xo addressed fresh speculation that she’d moved on with Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger—calling it bad timing, a “joke,” and insisting: “There’s no f**king way in hell.”
Bunnie Xo didn’t wait long for the internet to connect dots that never needed connecting.
News broke earlier this week about her divorce from Jelly Roll. and almost immediately fans began speculating she’d already moved on—this time toward Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger. In her new Dumb Blonde podcast episode on Thursday. the 46-year-old stepped straight into the mess. and her message was blunt: she’s not dating Chad.
“The news drops. I have f**king Nickelback on my page. ” Bunnie said on the episode. describing the timing of it all as pure coincidence. She explained she didn’t know the divorce news was about to drop. which meant the Nickelback video showing up wasn’t a pivot—it was just. as she put it. bad timing.
It wasn’t the only Nickelback-related post fans latched onto. Bunnie recently shared multiple videos that seemed to invite “ship” energy. including posts with the captions “The Chad ???” and “Swoooon” alongside Nickelback audio trends. For fans, it was the kind of breadcrumb trail that makes speculation feel almost inevitable.
But Bunnie shut that storyline down too. She said one of her videos was recorded at one of Jelly’s shows in Las Vegas last year, and that calling the singer “Daddy Chaddy” was “a joke.” Then she went further, directly addressing the rumor that she cheated on her husband and left him for Chad.
“I am not with Daddy Chaddy. There’s no f**king way in hell that that would even be a thing. And no, I did not cheat on my husband and leave him for Chad, and like, none of that. Like, please.”
She added, “This is so wrong. I am not dating Chad Kroeger. I am so sorry to Chad and Nickelback for this happening. It’s embarrassing.”
Bunnie also pushed back on the way narratives move online, saying, “God, it’s just so f**ked up that the internet can just run with a narrative and people just f***ing run with it. … So there is no Chad and Bunnie Xo.”
Jelly Roll has confirmed that neither of them cheated and that he and Bunnie remain “best friends.” Chad has not commented on the romance speculation at this time.
What Bunnie is asking for now is simple: stop turning her posts into a love story. And she made that point in the clearest way possible—while urging viewers to watch her full podcast. she left fans with the same bottom line she’s been repeating since the rumors surfaced: there’s no “Chad and Bunnie Xo.”.
