Bunnie Xo is coming clean about rumors going around she’s dating Nickelback singer Chad Kroeger.
The podcaster, 46, sparked chatter on Monday when, just hours before news broke that her husband, Jelly Roll, had filed for divorce, she shared a TikTok video of herself singing along to Nickelback’s 2001 bitter breakup hit, “How You Remind Me.”
Bunnie (born Alisa DeFord) additionally shared a steamy photo of herself wearing pink satin lingerie at the same time.
“She’s getting her sparkle back ✨,” she wrote atop the photo.
Fan speculation immediately brewed wondering if Bunnie had moved on to Kroeger. Further fueling the gossip was an Instagram video she posted in late May hugging the Nickelback frontman, writing atop it, “The moment I finally got to be back in his arms,” and captioning it “Swoon.”
