Country star Jelly Roll made headlines over the weekend at the 2024 Stagecoach Festival when he brought his daughter Bailee Ann DeFord on stage during his performance.
The 39-year-old singer led the crowd in a heartfelt sing-along to celebrate Bailee Ann’s upcoming 16th birthday, earning some major “cool dad points” in the process.
With his wife Bunnie XO by his side on stage, Jelly Roll expressed his gratitude to the crowd for changing their lives and helping to “break generational curses.” The singer’s touching gesture was captured in fan-shot videos and TikTok clips, where he playfully admitted to trying to earn some “cool dad points” with the birthday surprise.
In addition to the sweet moment with Bailee Ann, Jelly Roll also took his eldest child to a cooking demonstration with Guy Fieri at the festival. The country star, who eloped with Bunnie XO in 2016, is a proud father to Bailee Ann and 7-year-old Noah Buddy DeFord.
While Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO keep their family life relatively private on social media, the musician has been open about his love for his children. After his victories at the 2023 CMT Music Awards, Jelly Roll expressed his pride in Bailee Ann, stating, “She knows how real it is. I’m just proud of her.”
