Bunnie Xo Addresses Fan Backlash Over Outing with Younger Reality Star

Bunnie Xo is responding to fan concerns regarding an outing with 24-year-old reality star Dylan Wolf, which ignited discussion about their age difference. The podcast host shared a video on TikTok showing her and Wolf at a Waffle House, with the caption, "POV: It's his first time at Waffle House." This post led to numerous comments from fans scrutinizing the age gap between Xo, 46, and Wolf, a star of "Calabasas Confidential."

Fans expressed observations such as, "i'm sure it's first time doing alot of things since hes a baby in a adult world," and "Don't know how people can be together for 10+ years but can move on right away like it meant nothing."

In response to the online reaction, Bunnie Xo defended her actions in the comments section of her post. "Hey guys, I’m having fun & he gave me my smile back," she wrote. "Ya girl is living her best life – let meeeee k thanks byeeeee." She also clarified that the outing was not a date, replying to a comment by stating it was not.

Bunnie Xo was first seen with Wolf in July, when she was photographed kissing the reality star at Jelly Roll's bar in Nashville. She previously addressed the nature of her post-divorce social life on the podcast "Open Book with Jenna Bush Hager," where she stated, "I'm like, 'Can your girl have some fun?' I'm going, 'You guys are going to see me with multiple men, maybe even a couple women.' You never know. Maybe even a freaking camel."

She also explained that her activities since her divorce are not as scandalous as they might appear online. "I mean, it's been — you know, it's so funny — people probably think I'm out here doing, like, ho activities, and I'm not," Bunnie Xo said. "I swear to God. Literally, we're at home playing — what's it called? — Cards Against Humanity. … We're swimming, we're working out. You guys see only what I put on social media."

Bunnie Xo stated during the podcast that she has entered a new phase focused on self-care without guilt. "It's just pouring back into yourself," she explained. "It's being selfish. It's OK to be selfish. We as women feel like we need permission to be selfish, and we don't. Tell your kids to go to bed and eat the freaking brownies without them, you know? Even if it's something as small as that, we deserve to be selfish."

She added, "We deserve to have our own time, and we deserve to pour into each other. I'm having so much fun."

Jelly Roll filed for divorce from Bunnie Xo on May 18, listing the date of separation as May 9. The couple, who met in 2015, eloped a year later. Their divorce was finalized in July, after nearly 10 years of marriage. Bunnie Xo had previously discussed the details of their split on her podcast, a recording of which was later removed from YouTube.
