Jelly Roll Reacts to Daughter Bailee Ann Being Crowned Prom Queen
Jelly Roll is celebrating his bloodline.
The “Bloodline” singer—dad to kids Bailee Ann, 17, and Noah Buddy, 9, from previous relationships—celebrated after his daughter was crowned prom queen.
As Jelly Roll, 41, wrote on a snap of his daughter shared to his Instagram Stories May 2, “My little angel is the Prom Queen.”
In the photo, Bailee smiled for the camera in her full prom get-up, donning a glittering emerald gown with a matching necklace. Sporting her mementos from the night’s top honor, the teen accessorized with a bedazzled crown and two sashes.
And it was a pinch-me moment for Bailee, who also noted on her Instagram Stories May 2, “Omg I cannot believe I won prom queen!!!”
But Bailee wasn’t the only family member who got glitzed and glammed for the evening. After all, Jelly Roll and his wife Bunnie XO also dressed up for the occasion.
In a joint May 3 Instagram video, Bunnie, Jelly Roll, and Bailee showed off before and after clips of their prom transformation. While the podcast host sported a floral gown, the “Amen” singer rocked an all-black outfit for the occasion.
Recently, Bunnie (real name Alisa DeFord) revealed the couple’s plans to expand their family.
“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,” the 46-year-old wrote in her 2026 memoir Stripped Down: Unfiltered and Unapologetic. “J and I have a surrogate, the sweetest woman ever, and soon I’ll be starting my IVF stims.”

IVF stims is the stimulation of the ovaries, according to fertility specialists, in which medications are used to encourage the ovaries to produce more follicles which increases the chance of retrieving viable eggs.
Though she and Jelly Roll (born Jason Bradley DeFord) are excited for their family’s next chapter, Bunnie admitted that she’s also a tad nervous, adding, “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.”
“We’re going to raise these babies in love and give them everything we were never given,” she added. “I can’t wait to see a piece of me and him running around outside of our bodies.”
