Jelly Roll‘s ex found herself in legal trouble, and we’re not talking about Bunnie Xo this time!
According to Us Weekly, the country music star’s ex-girlfriend, Felicia Beckwith, with whom he shares 18-year-old daughter Bailee Ann DeFord, was arrested on several drug charges last year but has now pleaded guilty to a lesser charge. Here’s what happened…
In February 2025, Felicia was taken into custody alongside two other individuals in possession of drugs, guns, and cash. A press release from the Washington County Sheriff’s Office in Tennessee the following month revealed deputies initiated a traffic stop for the 37-year-old and two other people, and they found a pistol in the driver’s door, drug paraphernalia, and cash on the others.

There had also been in the car a total of 52 grams of methamphetamine, pills, and 12 grams of a white powder substance, which law enforcement believed was fentanyl. Cops said Felicia had one bag that contained some of the methamphetamine, the alleged fentanyl, and pills. Authorities then got a search warrant for the home of one of the other individuals in the car with Felicia. They allegedly discovered 291 grams of methamphetamine, 16 and a half grams of a substance that was either methamphetamine or fentanyl, seven sets of scales, and three loaded handguns, one of which had the serial number removed.
The trio was arrested and taken to the Washington County Detention Center. Felicia was charged with manufacture/delivery/sell/possession of methamphetamine, schedule II drug violations, two counts of simple possession/casual exchange, and unlawful drug paraphernalia.
However, Us Weekly reported that Washington County court records confirmed she pleaded guilty on Thursday to possession of less than 0.5 grams of fentanyl, which is classified as a schedule II drug. All the other charges have been dropped. And by pleading guilty to the lesser charge, she is avoiding jail time. The Washington County court clerk said Felicia has been given a sentence of three years of supervised probation.
At this time, Jelly hasn’t addressed his baby mama’s legal drama (probably never will). He’s a bit busy right now dealing with the fallout of his breakup with estranged wife Bunnie Xo.
