Bunnie Xo is speaking out after her stepdaughter Bailee Ann’s recent comments about the Dumb Blonde podcast host’s divorce from ex Jelly Roll.

On Sunday, July 19, Bailee got candid with her followers about Jelly and Bunnie’s divorce during a TikTok livestream and said the internet will “crumble” upon finding out the reason behind their split. A few days later, Bunnie, 46, addressed the comments while responding to a fan on the social media platform.

“Nothing to clear up,” said Bunnie, whose real name is Alisa DeFord. “She didn’t say anything lol ppl just wanna run with a narrative.”

“Love my baby forever,” she added of Jelly’s 18-year-old daughter.

During Bailee’s TikTok livestream, she told her followers “nobody cheated” between Bunnie and Jelly, 41, whose real name is Jason DeFord. “Period. [Get] the f— out of my comments, my DMs, my live with that s—, I don’t care, I don’t want to talk about it.”

Bailee urged that people “have no f—ing idea what happened, and wait ‘til y’all find out.”

“It’s not a difference in f—ing opinions,” added Bailee. “Nobody else lived in it. So don’t f—ing even. I’m for real so done. Good? Everybody good? We’re on the same page? Cool.”

Jelly filed for divorce from Bunnie after 10 years of marriage in Williamson County, Tenn. on May 18, according to documents obtained and court records previously viewed by PEOPLE. Their date of separation was listed in the documents as May 9, and the grounds for divorce are listed as irreconcilable differences.

The couple finalized their divorce earlier this month, according to court documents obtained by PEOPLE. They split items including their homes, cars, an aircraft and their intellectual properties. Jelly also made a one-time, confidential lump sum payment to Bunnie, meaning no alimony claims will be made in court.

“There was never any desire to drag the process out,” a source previously told PEOPLE. “They both wanted to handle the divorce with respect for one another.”

The source added, “He’s a very generous person by nature and wanted to make sure the divorce was handled fairly and respectfully.”
