Before Jelly Roll dropped a dramatic 275 pounds, his sex life was suffering.
The “Wild Ones” singer — who tied the knot with high-end escort-turned-podcaster Bunnie Xo in 2016 — made the racy revelation in a Men’s Health cover story that was published on Friday, January 2.
“My testosterone level — and I’m cool to talk about this openly — was of a preteen boy,” he shared with the outlet. “You can’t get it up without T. I was married to a smoke show, and I was still struggling.”

Tipping the scales at more than 520 pounds in 2020, Jelly Roll embarked on a wellness journey that saw him address his food addiction in mental health therapy, revamp his diet with the help of a chef and sports nutritionist, and commit to consistent run/walks.
He also signed up for hormone therapy.
“I’ll be on testosterone replacement therapy probably for the rest of my life,” the “Somebody Save Me” hitmaker, 41, told Men’s Health.
All of the effort was worth it, according to Jelly Roll, especially when it comes to his intimacy with Bunnie, 45.

“Now it’s a totally different thing. I’m chasing her around the house, you know what I’m saying?” he shared with Men’s Health. “I’m like a teenage kid again! I’m like the Pink Panther: I bust out of every corner. And she opens the cabinet and I go, ‘Hi!’ ”
A decade after they exchanged vows, Jelly Roll says Bunnie is still his dream girl.
Describing her as a “blond, beautiful woman” on the Wednesday, December 10, episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, via Page Six, he declared: “I married the kind of woman that makes you smile when you cry.”
