Bunnie Xo is sharing her love for husband Jelly Roll as the couple celebrates their eighth wedding anniversary.

To mark the milestone, Bunnie, 44, posted a touching tribute to the singer and rapper, 39, along with a series of photos of the pair through the years. She began her Aug. 31 Instagram post by listing out the precise number of months, weeks, days, hours, minutes and seconds that she and Jelly have been together.

“That’s how long I’ve called you mine,” she wrote, before sharing how the “Save Me” singer (whose real name is Jason DeFord) has positively impacted her life. “Thank you for cutting your fingers on all of my jagged edges. Without you, I wouldn’t be the woman I am today. 🤍.”

She continued: “People always talk about how much I’ve helped you, but I don’t think they realize it was an even trade. 8 years J baby, you’re now officially the longest relationship I’ve ever been in. Not sure if we should congratulate you or be concerned that you’ve survived. 🤣.”

Bunnie concluded her anniversary post, “I loved you then, I love you now & I’ll love you forever. Happy Anniversary sweet thang!” and then prompted her followers to swipe to see a photo of the couple at their 2016 nuptials.

Jelly and the Dumb Blonde podcast host, who first met at one of his concerts in 2015, got engaged one year later when Jelly proposed to Bunnie while onstage at a Yelawolf and Deftones show in Las Vegas. They then spontaneously decided to get married right then and there at a nearby chapel.

“It was Vegas, right? So it’s like 11 o’clock. They’re closing the joint down by Hard Rock [Cafe] and I’m like, ‘F— it. Let’s just go now,” Jelly later recalled of the spur-of-the-moment nuptials on the King and the Sting and the Wing Clips podcast. “She’s like, ‘The courthouse is open for about 34 to 44 more minutes.’ I was like, ‘Let’s f—— roll.’ “

On their seventh wedding anniversary in 2023, Jelly and Bunnie returned to the same Las Vegas chapel to renew their vows.

Jelly shared his own Instagram post on Aug. 31 in honor of the couple’s latest wedding anniversary. In a lengthy caption, he reflected on the journey that he and his wife have shared so far.

“8 years of marriage to my best friend, 8 years of laughing til our stomach hurts, of late night tv shows and giggles, unconditional love and overcoming obstacles, pushing boundaries and pushing each other further and further towards our dreams. 8 years of building,” he wrote. “But 8 years is a small candle compared to the forever that I know is OUR story.”

The two-time Grammy Award nominee also took a moment to share how “proud” he is of his wife and the work she is doing with her podcast.

“To see the way you inspire people especially other women makes my heart want to explode with joy,” he continued. “The amount of women who come up to me and say they relate to you and love your content makes my soul smile.”

Jelly finished his message by expressing his appreciation to Bunnie for all that she is and does.

“Thank you for your consistency in my life. Thank you for your love and attention. Thank you for raising our daughter as your own,” he wrote, referring to his 15-year-old child Bailee, whom he welcomed with ex Felicia Beckwith. “Thank your believing in me when I was with believing in. I can’t wait to see you in San Jose. Let’s cheers to many many many more.”
