Bunnie Xo is embracing a fresh start following her divorce from country star Jelly Roll, with new projects, career opportunities and personal goals reportedly keeping her busier than ever.
According to a source who spoke with People Magazine, the “Dumb Blonde” podcast host has been spending time in Los Angeles meeting with television producers, agents and production companies as she explores new opportunities in the entertainment industry.
The insider claimed Bunnie is actively “taking a ton of meetings. She’s meeting with agents, TV agents, and production companies. So she’s going full-blown Hollywood.”
They described her as highly motivated and determined to build the next phase of her career, suggesting she has fully immersed herself in new business opportunities since the end of her marriage.
Bunnie, whose real name is Alisa DeFord, officially finalized her divorce from Jelly Roll earlier this month after the singer filed to end their marriage in May. The former couple had been together for nearly a decade.

Bunnie has since revealed plans to return to school through Arizona State University, where she intends to pursue a double major in fields she has not yet publicly disclosed.
