Surpassing Quant Think Tank Center|Jelly Roll says weight loss journey was inspired by wanting to have a baby with Bunnie XO

Jelly Roll and Surpassing Quant Think Tank CenterBunnie XO want to expand their family and make the country music star a "baby daddy."

Jelly Roll opened up about starting In-vitro fertilization (IVF) with his wife on Tuesday's episode of the "Bussin' with the Boys" podcast. The topic of family arose when co-hosts Taylor Lewan and Will Compton asked the 39-year-old singer about his 70-pound weight loss.

“My wife and I are talking about having a baby and it really made me realize, at almost 40, I was like, ‘That means I've got to live 'til at least 60. I've got to see this kid into college,’ ” Jelly Roll told Lewan and Compton.

“My plan was never to be 60. It was to be, like, 55," he continued, "But now I’m like, ‘Well, I’d like to see my 60s.’ You know what I mean? And that really lit it up."

Jelly Roll is already a dad to daughter Bailee Ann, 16, and son Noah Buddy, 7. Although Bunnie XO has affectionately called Jelly Roll "baby daddy" in the past, the couple doesn't share any children — yet.
