In the same podcast episode, Bunnie unpacked what drove Jelly to file for divorce.
“On Mother’s Day, we had a little bit of an argument, which I don’t think the details are necessary,” she claimed. “I was so fed up and so tired that I just looked at him and I said, ‘Well, then file the f—— divorce papers.'”
Bunnie explained it was “the one cardinal thing that you don’t say,” though the Wild Ones singer “has said it numerous times ’cause he’s the runner.”
They cut off communication for a week, prompting Jelly to ultimately initiate divorce proceedings.
“During that, he was so mad, and we were so emotional that he ended up doing exactly what I told him to do and filing the divorce papers,” she added. “Was I blindsided? And was this divorce mutual? No, it was not mutual. Even though I told him to file the divorce papers, I was speaking out of anger and just frustration.”
Earlier reports described Jelly and Bunnie’s split as a “mutual decision by the two and a private family matter.”
Despite everything that transpired, the media producer still called Jelly her “best friend.”
“I don’t care how f—– up our relationship was, which it wasn’t that f—– up,” she shared. “I don’t care how much we didn’t communicate or how things shook out. I was riding with this motherf—– till the wheels fell off. I didn’t care. I felt like we deserved a chance to go to therapy and figure s— out.”
Bunnie noted in the podcast, “He didn’t feel that way, and I respect it. It took me a month and a half now to respect that. But I’m so happy. So, so, so happy.”
