Bunnie XO Shares She & Jelly Roll Had a ‘Huge Win' in Their IVF Journey: ‘Praise Jesus'
Bunnie XO just had a breakthrough on her fertility journey with Jelly Roll.
In a raw video posted to her Instagram on Monday (June 16), the podcaster tears up while hiding her face in her hands as she talks inaudibly on the phone, seemingly having just received a piece of good news. 'When you just got the call you've been waiting on for 5 months since this ivf journey started,' she wrote.

'All the tears, the hopelessness & the struggle, God finally said, 'Here,'' Bunnie continued, adding in her caption: 'Praise Jesus.'
The social media star and country singer have been trying to conceive through IVF for months. In the comments of her post, Bunnie clarified that she's not pregnant yet — 'We won't announce that,' she asserted — but they are one big step closer to growing their family.
'This is just a huge win for us,' Bunnie noted.
The Dumb Blonde host has been open about her experience with IVF, documenting the ups and downs on social media. In March, she got real on her podcast about how 'lonely' the process can be, sharing, 'It's just you and these hormones and the waiting and the egg retrieval … It's a lot to bear.'
Bunnie also recently clapped back at a troll who implied that she is too old to be trying for a baby. The same commenter also wrote that Jelly Roll — who has been open about his weight-loss journey over the past year — is 'so unhealthy looking.'
'Yes, I have decided at the ripe age of 45 that I would love to hear the pitter-patter of little feet with the man that I've been with for almost a decade,' said Bunnie, who is a stepmom to Jelly's two kids from past relationships, 17-year-old Bailee Ann and 7-year-old Noah.
'Not only am I financially in a great place to raise a child, but I'm also spiritually and mentally in a great place because I have been in the darkest places before and I drug myself out from the depths of hell,' she added at the time in a video on her Instagram Story. 'Did you know that I was pregnant three times before we decided to do this IVF? I am so thankful that God did not let me have a baby when I was 20 years old because that poor child would have been through so much s–t with me. This is the perfect age.'

Meghan Markle Catches More Criticism From Jam Expert Amid New Product Launch
Meghan Markle's critic train continues to take on new passengers! The Duchess of Sussex is not catching a break, as one of her newly launched products comes under severe tongue lashings by an expert in the field. Meghan Markle put a huge smile on the faces of her fans last week when she expanded her stock by not just one, but three new merchandise, including a new special wine. Renowned jam connoisseur Donna Collins came out swinging against Meghan and labeled her fruit spread an epic disappointment. Collins continued that fruit spread is usually a last resort when the jam is of low quality. "It can have the best ingredients, but if I had a jam that was too runny, I'd slap a label on it and call it a spread. There's no excuse for this. It should be perfect," Collins stressed. The jam-making champion also questioned Meghan's choice of ingredients, which include dried organic apricots, fruit pectin, organic pure cane sugar, and conventional apricots. According to the Daily Mail, Collins noted that some of the preservatives used for the apricots are harmful to human health. She also observed that pectin is often used for runny spreads. Collins, who owns a jam company known as Jelly Queen Jam and has about 40 jam-making championship titles under her belt, came with more points to tackle the entrepreneur. She raised an issue with the size of Meghan's new batch of apricot spread. The expert was convinced that the actress had only made a small quantity, which is why it sold out within minutes, just like her raspberry spread. The Duchess debuted her "As Ever" with a few products, including the raspberry spread, which critics claimed was poorly suited for bread and toasts. "I don't know who's making her spread, but we all know it's not Meghan. It sounds like they really don't know what they are doing," Collins insisted. Her sentiments were echoed by another observer, Maureen Foley, who owns Red Hen Cannery in Montecito. Foley claimed Meghan's rushed apricot spread line was a brilliant marketing move from her. The mogul added, "She may be smart, trying to fill a niche. Spreads can be sweet or savoury, and used on dishes for all meals, so perhaps it's just clever marketing." Meghan's "As Ever" lifestyle brand came to life in April, with a promise to feature a quantitative inventory from home essentials to edible stuff. Quite the expressive one, Meghan did not waste time informing her teeming customers about their latest team achievement. The mother-of-two hopped on her brand's official Instagram page to wish her fans a "wonderful weekend" for making the "As Ever" weekend a "sold out" one. She also made a post on her personal page, reacting excitedly to the progress. Meghan had earlier hinted to her fans about an incoming wave of sold-out tags on her product. The Duchess of Sussex urged her fans not to second-guess on purchasing their favorite items from her store. "We spent so much time making sure we had so much more inventory, that's why we took the time, and you guys are doing it again. We're nearly sold out on everything, and I can't believe it," She exclaimed. Meghan stated that everything, down to the flower sprinkles, which she produced in excess were nearly out of stock. On Saturday, she followed up on her gratitude with another note on her brand's Instagram page, describing her fans as the "sweetest part" of what the brand does. Despite Meghan's iconic entrepreneurial success, royal experts are convinced it is only a ploy for fame and fortune, as noted by The Blast. The experts continued that the actress also desires to be recognized as a royal mogul with a large business empire. They connected the huge success of her brand to her title and status as a royal figure. British broadcaster, Helena Chard, claimed: "She will cling to this as it will help bring her [more] fame and fortune, which is imperative to her life. She will keep her fingers in many pies and her name in lights with the hope that one or more of her ideas will bring in the much-needed hard cash." Coincidentally, Meghan had previously admitted to missing her former life as an actress when she got married to Prince Harry in 2018. With her new venture, experts like Valentine Low are claiming she is trying to get the best of both worlds. In Low's 2023 book "Courtiers," he claimed the actress aided the Birmingham exodus in 2020 to give her and Harry the "freedom to make money and dip their toes into politics." As reported by The Blast, Meghan's success as an entrepreneur began with bleak days of uncertainty about her progress or direction. However, Meghan's trying times did not last long, as she received a much-needed boost from Oprah. In a rare confession, she explained on her podcast 'Confessions of a Female Founder' that she got into a place of contentment with producing just small batches from home. Despite this peace, Meghan admitted that she could not shake off the feeling of mediocrity towards her decision. Oprah then reportedly assured her in one of their meetings that she was on the right track, especially if she looked into adding more products to her itinerary. Meghan continued that Oprah encouraged her to figure out how to capture her 'essence' and make it convincing enough to make a profit from. The mother-of-two added that as soon as she heard this statement from the former host, all her doubts flew out the window.

Back in December, Bacon, Sedgwick, and their two kids made a rare carpet appearance at the Hollywood premiere of A Complete Unknown. On Dec. 10, the family — including the actors and their kids Sosie and Travis, as well as his partner Angelina Sambrotto — looked glam in cool ensembles in support of the Bob Dylan biopic starring Timothée Chalamet and Elle Fanning. Bacon and Sedgwick coordinated in all-black outfits. He wore skinny jeans and a leather jacket over his unbuttoned shirt. She looked effortlessly chic in layered jackets, a white blouse, straight-leg trousers and brown boots, all of which she accessorized with a red bag. Their kids embraced their personal styles as well, with Sosie, who takes after her mom's flair, in a punchy vermilion long-sleeve dress with a flared skirt and Travis in a black suit that complemented Sambrotto's plunging latex dress and heels. Last June, Sosie and Travis joined their parents at the Los Angeles premiere of MaXXXine. While they went dressed up in casual ensembles — she rocked a sweater dress inspired by The Rocky Horror Picture Show and he wore pants and a long-sleeve shirt — Bacon and Sedgwick went all out with their looks. The Summer I Turned Pretty actress went for a sexy vibe in a leather minidress and the Footloose actor went for a Miami Vice aesthetic in a terracotta suit and aviator sunglasses.

Canadian singer Josh Ross apologizes, but stands ground, after calling U.S. ‘the best' country
TORONTO - Canadian country singer Josh Ross is apologizing after he drew jeers on social media for carrying a U.S. flag onstage at a music festival and calling the country the 'best' in the world. Ross posted a statement to TikTok on Monday afternoon saying he's 'sorry to anybody who's offended' by his comments, adding that he felt the video gaining attention was taken out of context. The Burlington, Ont., native faced scrutiny after footage posted on social media showed a brief clip of his set at the Tailgate N' Tallboys festival on June 13 in Bloomington, Ind., just weeks before he's set to perform Ottawa's Canada Day celebrations. In the video, Ross, who lives in Nashville, takes a moment to address his citizenship. 'Fun fact, real quick. I'm Canadian,' he says, gripping a flagpole in his hand. 'You want to know the best fun fact is I moved to the best ... country in the world and I love it very much.' Another video posted on Instagram showed the crowd chanting 'U.S.A! U.S.A!' and passing the flag to Ross. His comments drew criticism from some online commenters who said the pro-American stance ran against the 'Elbows Up' movement and the ongoing political conflict with U.S. president Donald Trump. 'I feel like I'm always representing Canada no matter where I go,' Ross said in his response, which was recorded from his vehicle in Nashville. 'Born and raised in Canada, but I've been living in Nashville for the last five plus years. Half my family lives in Canada, the other half is here in the U.S., and I'm as proud of establishing myself in the U.S. as I am being Canadian.' 'Both sides were not communicated in the clip that you guys are seeing and I'm sorry that that wasn't clear,' he added. The singer, who recently released 'Drunk Right Now (Na Na Na)' with Akon, is booked as one of the performers at Heritage Canada's Canada Day event in Ottawa. Organizers did not respond to requests for comment. Earlier this year at the Juno Awards, Ross seemed to take a political middle ground that was out of step with many of his fellow Canadians at the overtly patriotic show. While accepting the Juno win for country album of the year in March, he said he was proud of being Canadian, but suggested it was on his fellow citizens to find common ground with the U.S. 'I think it's time to get back to our Canadian roots and remember that friends are better than enemies,' he said. This report by The Canadian Press was first published June 23, 2025. Note to readers:This is a corrected story. A previous version carried a headline with a typo in 'Josh.'
