    Jelly Roll and wife Bunnie Xo want to have twins via a surrogate in the future

    The American rapper-and-singer and his podcast host wife are making plans to have children together, and the country music star has already found a potential surrogate who could carry their babies for them.


    Writing in her memoir, Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic, Bunnie Xo, 46, revealed: "Now that we're finally stable financially and somewhat emotionally after all the healing we've done over this decade together, we're talking about the future - including growing our family.

    "J and I have a surrogate, the sweetest woman ever, and soon I'll be starting my IVF stims."

    Bunnie is excited to have children with 41-year-old Jelly Roll - real name Jason Bradley DeFord - because she has waited a long time "to have kids with someone I knew would be a great father".

    She wrote: "I've waited this long to have kids with someone I knew would be a great father - and to be able to make sure they have the best life."

    Bunnie - real name Alyssa DeFord - knows that some people will want to criticise her and the Save Me hitmaker for having babies when they're in their 40s, but she's just going to block out the haters.

    She said: "Some people frown upon our decision to bring babies into this world at our age, and I could give a f***.

    "We're going to raise these babies in love and give them everything we were never given. I can't wait to see a piece of me and him running around outside of our bodies.

    "With how much IVF has advanced over the years and with the help of the most unselfish woman willing to carry twins for us, we'll be able to make our baby dreams come true."

    Jelly Roll already has daughter Bailee Ann, 17, and son Noah Buddy, nine, from previous relationships. He and Bunnie have full custody of Bailee Ann.

    Bunnie's fertility journey started back in 2019, when the influencer discovered her fallopian tubes were blocked, meaning she had to have surgery which still wouldn't guarantee she would be able to conceive naturally.
