Jelly Roll's new single I Am Not Okay, which he performed live on The Howard Stern Show in June, has already garnered significant attention. 

This performance is just the start as he gears up to kick off The Beautifully Broken Tour across North America. Amidst this exciting career news, Jelly Roll's wife, Bunnie Xo, recently shared some concerning health news with her followers.

Bunnie revealed that she had been experiencing unusual headaches for months and decided to get an MRI. The results were alarming: doctors found an aneurysm on her carotid artery, one of her biggest fears, especially since her mother had survived a ruptured aneurysm.

In a heartfelt Facebook post, Bunnie detailed her experience, sharing that she had been living a nightmare for the past few days.

"In March, I started getting really bad headaches, really weird headaches that I've never gotten before," she explained. "So I scheduled to have an MRI/MRA done this week with my doctor, and I went in and got it done."

The initial diagnosis of an aneurysm was confirmed by a subsequent scan, revealing a two-millimeter aneurysm.

Bunnie Xo suffered a recent health scare

"So the past four days, it literally felt like I kind of had a death sentence," Bunnie confessed. "You have to kind of come to grips with your own mortality and that's never a fun experience to go through, ever."

While the size of her aneurysm was thankfully revealed as extremely small and she was later cleared by the doctors, Bunnie candidly expressed the anxiety of living with such a condition, describing it as walking around with a "grenade in their head."
