Bunnie Xo‘s ex-husband, Frankie Lombardo, is still carrying a torch for his former wife.
After news broke that Bunnie, 46, and Jelly Roll, 41, have filed for divorce, Lombardo spoke to Page Six about his ex on Friday, June 19.
“We talk every day,” Lombardo, 43, told the outlet. He added that he “wouldn’t say no” to getting back together with Bunnie if she was open to the idea.
“She was the only woman who ever broke my heart. I feel like there’s a lot of unfinished business between us, but I might be the only one who feels that way,” Lombardo said.“I love her very much. I will never do anything to hurt her. I don’t think that’s ever going to go away.”
Lombardo, who was married to Bunnie from 2009 to 2015, praised the Stripped Down author as he described their current relationship dynamic.
“We have an interesting friendship. Sometimes she still talks to me like she’s my wife and reprimands me,” Lombardo told Page Six.
He added, “Bunnie is my best friend.”
Us Weekly confirmed on June 15 that Jelly Roll filed to end his marriage one month prior, submitting a divorce petition in Tennessee on May 18.
Speaking on her “Dumb Blonde” podcast on Thursday, June 18, Bunnie opened up about what caused them to call it quits.
“J and I have never really been good at having disagreements. So, we were the type of couple who never argued. So, he would be holding things in. I would be holding things in, and that’s a recipe for disaster,” Bunnie explained on the podcast. “We always preach you gotta be comfortable having the uncomfortable conversations, and we did that for eight years in. Then the past year and a half, we kind of got away from that because we’re in a different life right now.”
Bunnie added that a fight they had on Mother’s Day in May was the straw that broke the camel’s back. During the argument, Bunnie said she told him to “file the f***ing divorce papers.”
For his part, Jelly Roll broke his silence on the pair’s separation on stage during a performance in Saratoga Springs, NY.
“I wasn’t going to talk about this tonight, but while we’re talking about liars… the internet is a liar,” Jelly Roll said in footage shared via his Instagram. “It’s the only time and the only city I’m going to speak about this so break your camera phones out now.”
The “Save Me” singer shot down speculation there was an infidelity involved in their decision to call time on their marriage.
“Me and my wife are best friends. We will always be best friends. We just got off the phone earlier today,” he said. “Nobody cheated on nobody. She just did a whole podcast about it. You can go watch it. Every word of it is the truth.”
The country star, who tied the knot with Bunnie in August 2016, ended with a message for his estranged wife directly, sharing gratitude for their relationship.
“Bunnie, I love you baby. Thank you for those 10 years. They were incredible. Thank you for the next 10 years of friendship and 20 beyond that,” he said.
