On Tuesday, March 4, the Dumb Blonde podcast host, 44, posted a TikTok video where she shared an update on her and her husband Jelly Roll's road to parenthood. The stepmom of two shared that she's actively undergoing in vitro fertilization treatments.
"I’m literally going through IVF treatments right now — the hormones, the shots, all that," she said.

Both Bunnie Xo, whose real name is Alyssa DeFord, and the "All My Life" singer, 40, have been vocal about their desire to expand their family. On Tuesday, June 4, Jelly appeared on the Bussin’ with the Boys podcast and revealed he decided to lose over 60 pounds so he could live longer to see kids grow — and keep up with any new additions.
“My wife and I are talking about having a baby, and it really made me realize that at almost 40, I was like, it means I got to live to at least 60," Jelly shared. "I got to see this kid into college."

Bunnie Xo and Jelly RollBunnie Xo also spoke with a psychic medium on a Thursday, Jan. 2 episode of her podcast Dumb Blonde and opened up about how she's experienced several pregnancy losses in the past and now feels ready to become a parent. While she loves being a stepmom to Jelly's two kids from previous relationships — son Noah Buddy, 8, and daughter Bailee Ann, 16 — she's ready to have children of her own.
"I just feel like I've been healing so much trauma with my parents that I finally am ready to be a parent," she said. "Like, I've helped raise Bailee since she was 7, and I think that also showed me that, hey, I'm not gonna f--- up a kid's life too badly."
"But I feel like I've mastered… not mastered, but I feel like I can do this. You know?" she continued. "And I just want a little piece of J and I together."
