What to Know
Whether you’ve been married to your partner for 20 years or things are still fairly fresh and it’s just been a year or so, there is inevitably going to be ebbs and flows when it comes to the intimate part of your relationship. Popular podcast host, Bunnie Xo, who also happens to married to Grammy Award winning singer, Jelly Roll, opened up how a couple’s sex life can be different after someone loses a lot of weight. Whether it’s figuring out and feeling comfortable within one’s new body or a change in hormones that can often come with taking a GLP-1 weight loss medication, it’s certainly interesting terrain to navigate as a couple.
Bunnie Xo opens up about how drastic weight loss has changed her sex life with husband, Jelly Roll.
When you’ve been married to someone for years, you often grow accustomed to their body and what everything feels and looks like when you’re intimate with that person.
According to Unilad, Jelly Roll, who’s real name is Jason Bradley DeFord, likely weighed over 500 lbs at his heaviest weight and has dropped over 200 lbs. It’s always great to see people trying to live a healthier life!
Unilad reported that Bunnie Xo, Jelly Roll’s wife of nearly 10 years, wrote in her memoir that before her husband lost weight the couple “always had a sex life, but there were mountains and valleys that we had to go through.”
Now that her husband has slimmed down, things are looking a little bit different. Unilad reported that Bunnie Xo said on The Howard Stern Show that her husband’s penis had grown. “It is very true that when a man loses weight, it grows a lot,” she said.
Okay. We’re going to file that information under ‘things we never needed to know about Jelly Roll’!
Bunnie Xo opened up about how with both of them on weight loss medication, it changed things.
Sometimes when we see our partner trying so hard to be their best selves, we can’t help but want to join in! That’s the really special thing about love. It often makes us want to strive to be our best self.
In a recent Q&A for Playboy, Bunnie Xo was tasked with answering some fan questions to try and solve some problems. One person asked for her advice because they seemed to be having “way more sex” before they lost weight, but now that both partners are “on Ozempic, it’s like [they’re] not used to [their] new bodies.”
Bunnie Xo could relate. “When it comes to sex, slowing down after weight loss and Ozempic can be tricky. Big body changes mess with your head and hormones. Add a medication that blunts appetite and it’s not shocking libido dips too. It’s likely an adjustment period, not a permanent shift,” she answered.
An interesting share that is likely going to help a lot of people due to her vulnerability and openness.
How did Bunnie Xo’s husband manage to lose all that weight?
Other than experiencing some changes to their intimacy as a couple, Jelly Roll told Men’s Health that his most important goal throughout his body transformation journey was to “get healthy.”
There was a lot of online chatter about how Jelly Roll managed to lose so much weight fairly quickly. He clarified to Men’s Health that while he did try “weight-loss meds very early on his journey,” he stopped them after two weeks.
He told the magazine that the biggest thing he did was change how much he ate and his relationship to food. It also didn’t help that he had an addiction to alcohol, cocaine, and codeine, which he’s managed to kick.
All of this talk about one’s health and a healthy sex life can really allow one to see how everything is truly connected, especially when you’re in a longterm, committed relationship.
