Jelly added that he was told to check in on his daughter after news broke that Bailee\u2019s mom was arrested again:<\/p>\n I\u2019ve seen the effect that it\u2019s had on her. I\u2019ve got a 16, almost 17-year-old upstairs and I\u2019ve seen the effect that it\u2019s had \u2014 it\u2019s truly affected her life.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Jelly Roll explained that his daughter was broken over what happened to her mother and the arrest that transpired.
