Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo are calling it quits.

The singer-songwriter, born Jason Bradley DeFord, filed for divorce from the podcast host, born Alisa Andrea DeFord, on May 18 after nearly 10 years of marriage, according to court documents filed in Williamson County, Tennessee, last month.

The court documents were filed May 18 and cite “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split.

The pair initially tied the knot in August 2016 in Las Vegas. They returned to Las Vegas in 2023 to renew their vows.

The “Need a Favor” singer and his wife have spoken publicly about their marriage over the years, sharing details about their relationship on social media, including its ups and downs.

In March, Bunnie Xo sat down with Nightline anchor Juju Chang to discuss her memoir, Stripped Down, and opened up about the pair’s first few years as a married couple, including her decision to continue working as a sex worker during that time.

“I fell in love with my husband because he treated me like no other man had,” she said at the time. “He never used my job against me. He never shamed me for it. He just loved me.”

She also said the pair were able to overcome infidelity early on in their relationship, which Jelly Roll has acknowledged publicly and expressed regret about.

“Everybody thinks I just got back together with him and forgave him,” she said. “No. We had to really do the work. We are going to wake up and choose each other. Even on days I don’t like you, I’m still gonna choose you.”

The two also previously opened up about their experience with in vitro fertilization.

In June 2024, Bunnie Xo wrote on Instagram that the couple had met with “IVF doctors” and were “exploring all our options to add to our family.”

“We had planned on doing this privately, but decided our ivf journey needed to be shared because we’ve always been so open,” she said at the time, sharing a clip of her husband discussing parenthood in a podcast interview.

The estranged couple have no children together. Jelly Roll is the father of two children from separate relationships, a daughter named Bailee Ann and a son named Noah Buddy.

ABC News has reached out to representatives for Jelly Roll and Bunnie Xo for comment.

The Wu-Tang Clan and New York Knicks shared the spotlight once again, this time on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.

While the entire group wasn’t on hand for the Tonight Show performance, members RZA, Ghostface Killah, Method Man, Raekwon, Cappadonna and Young Dirty Bastard — the son of the late Ol’ Dirty Bastard — performed a medley of “Bring Da Ruckus” and “C.R.E.A.M.” from their 1993 debut album, Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers). Throughout the set they gave shoutouts to New York and rocked their Knicks gear.

This performance was part of the episode in which the newly crowned NBA champs crashed Fallon’s monologue. Loyal Knicks fan Spike Lee introduced the team to the audience, and the players came out as The Roots played “We Are the Champions” and Knicks-colored confetti rained down. Finals MVP Jalen Brunson made sure to bring out the Larry O’Brien Trophy.

The appearance was part of the celebration surrounding the Knicks’ victory over the San Antonio Spurs, which marked their first championship win in 53 years — a feat Method Man predicted during Wu-Tang’s halftime performance at Game 4. They brought the trophy home the following game.

The Knicks are scheduled to celebrate with a parade in New York City Thursday. 

Meanwhile, Wu-Tang Clan will resume their Final Chamber tour in August, before being inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in November.

Johnny Marr has announced a new album called The Age of Everything

The fifth solo effort from the former Smiths guitarist is due out Oct. 2. It’s the follow-up to 2022’s Fever Dreams Pts 1-4.

“This is the record that’s been the most cathartic,” Marr says in a statement. “The title came to me early in the process and became an inescapable idea. It seemed to sum up the way I think a lot of people are feeling. It’s all encompassing, but it’s not necessarily a negative statement.”

He adds, “There’s a sense of overwhelm in the culture brought about by technology, but looking at it with a different light, there could also be a sense of possibility.”

The album’s first single is called “Spin” and is out now.

Here’s the track list for The Age of Everything:

“Spin”
“Beyond the Rain”
“It’s Time”
“How Come”
“Ophelia”
“That Feeling”
“In and Out of Love”
“Just Once More”
“Fire with Fire”
“All in a Life”

Daughtry has announced an acoustic tour celebrating the band’s 20th anniversary.

The trek, dubbed 20 Years Unplugged, kicks off Oct. 12 in Troy, New York, and wraps up Nov. 14 in Dallas.

“The tour will pull the band’s music into a more raw and immediate space, where the weight of a lyric, the scrape of a guitar string, and the quiet before a chorus can hit as hard as the full-band impact,” a press release reads.

Presales begin Wednesday at 10 a.m. local time, and tickets go on sale to the general public on Friday at 10 a.m. local time.

For the full list of dates and all ticket info, visit DaughtryOfficial.com.

Daughtry formed in 2006 following frontman Chris Daughtry’s stint on American Idol. The band’s most recent release is their SHOCK TO THE SYSTEM album, which was released as two EPs over 2024 and 2025.

Rod Stewart has postponed more shows as he recovers from vocal issues.

Stewart has moved his June 15 and 16 shows at Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado, to Sept. 2 and 3, 2027. The venue announced the news on their social media pages.

“Following examinations at Colorado Voice Clinic this afternoon, Dr. David Opperman has prescribed vocal rest for Rod Stewart,” reads the post. “Evaluation revealed significant inflammation and strain of the vocal folds, making it impossible for him to safely perform without the risk of further injury and potential long-term damage to his voice.”

“Rod is deeply disappointed and sincerely apologizes to his fans for this inconvenience,” the post continues. “He looks forward to returning to the stage as soon as he is medically cleared.”

Stewart canceled his show in San Diego Friday, blaming an acute upper respiratory infection that resulted in laryngitis. Many fans were angry when, less than 24 hours later, he posted a video of him and sons Liam and Alastair Stewart flying to Boston to catch Scotland play in the World Cup. In the clip, he sounded somewhat congested but was still able to talk.

Stewart’s next scheduled show is happening June 19 in West Valley City, Utah.

(NEW YORK) — The American doctor who contracted Ebola in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) has returned to the United States.

Dr. Peter Stafford; his wife, Dr. Rebekah Stafford; and their four children arrived safely on Monday, according to Serge, the international Christian missionary group that employs the couple.

“I am filled with gratitude to God for preserving my life, to all those who prayed on my behalf, and to the many medical providers who cared for me. I am feeling well and thankful to be reunited with Rebekah and the kids,” Peter Stafford said in a statement. “Our prayers continue for those in Congo who are facing this devastating epidemic and for the ongoing efforts to control the disease.”

Peter Stafford tested positive while working with patients in the DRC and was evacuated to Germany to receive specialty care. He was hospitalized at Charité University Hospital in Berlin.

Rebekah Stafford and their four children were also evacuated to Germany and moved into a separate space at the hospital as high-risk contacts.

The family was discharged from the hospital earlier this month and Peter Stafford has remained Ebola free since May 30, according to Serge. U.S. health authorities are in regular contact with Peter Stafford, Serge said.

“Our hearts remain deeply saddened for our Congolese friends and colleagues and those impacted by this outbreak,” Matt Allison, executive director of Serge, said in a statement. “Our mission is more critical than ever as we mobilize medical support and resources to partners in the area.”

Allison continued, “Thank you to those who have prayed and given sacrificially to this work. Also, we would like to express our immense gratitude to the many international organizations, governments, and partners who cared for the Stafford family and brought them home safely.”

The outbreak was first detected in the DRC’s northeastern province of Ituri, with cases officially confirmed by the health ministry on May 15. It marks the 17th outbreak of Ebola virus disease in the DRC, which is Africa’s second-largest country and its fourth-most populous nation.

Congo’s Health Minister Roger Kamba said during a press briefing on Monday evening that the DRC has now recorded 808 confirmed Ebola cases and 192 deaths. In neighboring Uganda, at least 19 cases — mostly linked to travel — and two deaths have been confirmed, according to the Ugandan health ministry.

On This Day, June 16, 1972: David Bowie released ‘The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars’

On This Day, June 16, 1972 …

David Bowie released his fifth studio album, The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. The album featured such future Bowie classics as “Starman” and “Suffragette City.”

The tale of a bisexual alien rock star sent to save mankind initially received mixed reviews, but it was later hailed as one of the greatest, most influential albums of all time.

Bowie remained in character as Ziggy for his Ziggy Stardust Tour until it ended July 3, 1973, at London’s Odeon Theater. The final performance was filmed for a documentary/concert film, which was released in August 1979.

In 2023, to mark the 50th anniversary of that final show, a special world premiere screening of a restored version of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars: The Motion Picture took place at London’s Eventim Apollo Hammersmith, formerly known as the Odeon.

Tom Holland has seemingly confirmed what has long been speculated: that he and Zendaya are already married.

In an interview with Esquire, the Spider-Man: Brand New Day star was asked about the AI images that circulated purporting to be from their wedding. He said the images confused his granny, who thought she hadn’t been invited.

The reporter then asked whether he had to reach out to other family members to explain the photos, to which he paused then replied, “No, because they were all there.”

When the reporter said they didn’t realize the wedding had happened already, Holland firmly responded, “That’s all you’ll get on that.”

Before this, the closest the public got to a confirmation was Zendaya’s stylist Law Roach telling Access Hollywood at the 2026 Actor Awards that the “wedding has already happened. You missed it.”

When asked by a reporter if that was true, Roach replied, “It’s very true.”

ABC News reached out to a representative for Holland and Zendaya at the time.

Holland and Zendaya are set to star together in Spider-Man: Brand New Day and The Odyssey this year.
