Jelly Roll's Wife Bunnie Xo Had A Horrible Experience With GLP-1s — Sadly, She's Not Alone
Bunnie Xo, wife of country star Jelly Roll, looks fabulous following her recent efforts to become healthier. However, she found out the hard way that she "just cannot tolerate" the weight loss medication she was using.
In an interview with People, she confessed that December 25, 2026, was "one of the darkest times of [her] life." Breaking down what happened, she told the magazine that she went through an episode of feeling suicidal while using a GLP-1 medication.

The "Dumb Blonde" podcast host further revealed that, while she had experienced anxiety in the past, depression was unusual for her. "So when you get slammed with suicidal ideation and visions and just, oh, it was horrific," she explained.
"I'm good now," she added, before going on later in the interview to offer encouragement to others who might find themselves feeling the same emotion. "I just want people to know you're not alone. Everybody goes through ups and downs and you are worth staying here," she said.
Bunnie Xo's experience with a GLP-1 is not an isolated incident, however. Other celebs have also come forward detailing negative experiences with these drugs.

Bunnie Xo isn't the only celeb who's experienced problems with a GLP-1
Danielle Mason, who is a former model for the U.K. men's magazine Loaded as well as a TV star, said her experience with the diabetes drug Mounjaro (tirzepatide) was "horrendous." On her social media accounts (via The Sun), Mason said, "All I'm seeing is people on TikTok saying how amazing it is, but I had such a rubbish time on it." Describing her time using the drug, she added that it was "[t]he most depressed I think I've ever been in my whole life and everything felt boring to me."
And people's negative experiences with GLP-1s don't end with depression. For example, during an episode of the reality show "Love Thy Nader," Brooks Nader was confronted by her sister Grace Ann, who told her, "You're using GLP-1 and not eating and so you're tired, you can't really complete a workout." In response, Nader confessed that she felt she had an unhealthy relationship with weight and food because of pressure "to fit a certain standard and a certain measurement," however, she added she didn't feel that she had an eating disorder (via People). ANAD notes that GLP-1s could potentially trigger or worsen an eating disorder. They advise being cautious and working with a health care provider if you have a current or past eating disorder and plan to use these medications.
