Jelly Roll and his wife, Bunnie Xo, have stepped in after a middle school suspended a student over a picture that she drew of the couple.
In Rutherford County, Tenn., a middle school student was tasked with drawing a picture of people that have influenced her. She said she chose Jelly Roll and Bunnie because of what they have been through and their resilience.
She was ultimately suspended for said drawing, due to the way she drew Bunnie.
Bunnie told fans about the situation via Facebook, and she’s not pleased:
Fans were equally enraged — the comments section of the post is filled with support for the child. Since Jelly Roll and Bunnie live in Tennessee, where the school is, she was able to be identified.
Good will come of the unfortunate situation — Bunnie promises that she and Jelly Roll will do “something really cool” with the picture, which they’re getting from the mother of the child.
What’s next is anyone’s guess: Could they possibly make T-shirts with the picture on them, and sell them on their website to give the profits to the young girl? Perhaps tour merch?
Stay tuned as the story continues to develop.
