Jelly Roll’s famous podcaster wife, Bunnie Xo, has come a long way in life, and she isn’t ashamed to admit where she’s been.
Growing up on the streets of Las Vegas, Bunnie shared she was a homeless runaway at the age of just 14, and by 21-years-old, she was heavily involved in the adult industry.
“Survived abuse, addiction, and built my entire life off being the girl who was never good enough,” she shared on her Dumb Blonde podcast.
Bunnie has previously fired back at critics who claim her look is “too trashy for the country music scene,” reminding them that God uses those who might fit quite a perfect mold.
“Sometimes God uses the most unlikely people to be used as vessels to SHOW what transformation and unconditional love is.”
Bunnie Posts Her Past Mugshots
Bunnie is known for being very candid and outspoken with her fans, especially on topics surrounding her past, mental health, and her difficult journey. As she prepares to release her new memoir, “Stripped Down,” in February, the podcast host had a message of inspiration for those struggling.
In an Instagram post Tuesday (November 4), she shared a carousel of her previous mugshots, giving a little backstory into each one.
“Looking at the first one, I just couldn’t believe what a baby I was. I was 19 , already living on the streets of Vegas for 5 years, couch to couch, or with whatever boyfriend would let me stay. By then I’d already lost three babies,” Bunnie wrote in the caption. “As the pics go on the eyes only get more sad, more broken & more intoxicated.”
Bunnie explained she asked her lawyer to dig up the old photos, admitting seeing them brought up many emotions.
“The fact that I’m smiling in some of these will let you kno just how disconnected I was from myself & my emotions. I look at those photos now & just want to hug that little girl. She thought surviving meant hyper independence, fighting in the streets, barking loud & biting even harder,” she wrote.
Bunnie Xo Shares Inspiring Message Of Hope
Bunnie shared that eventually she got “sick” of the life she was living, and knew she had to do something different.
“I got sick. Sick of humiliating myself, sick of always having to start over & sick of who I was as a human. I had to stop pointing fingers & realize, two things can be true: I was the problem & the solution,” she said.
Bunnie explained that she’s still “learning” and “healing” and shared an inspiring message with those following her journey.
“I’m not ashamed of these photos. They remind me who I used to be, & how far grace has carried me,” she shared. “If you’re in your own rock-bottom season right now, I need you to know this- you can rebuild. You CAN rewrite your story & start believing in yourself. You are never too far gone for God to find you, love you, & lift you out.”
