Jessica Simpson has revealed that she and her husband Eric Johnson are currently living apart as they face a challenging moment in their marriage. After ten years together, Simpson officially announced their separation in a statement, emphasizing that their children remain their top priority during this difficult time.
The couple, who got engaged in 2010 after a brief six-month courtship, tied the knot in 2014 after welcoming their first two children. Together, they share three children: Maxwell “Maxi” Drew, 12; Ace Knute, 11; and Birdie Mae, 5. In her statement, Simpson expressed gratitude for the support they have received and requested privacy as they navigate this situation as a family.
Rumors surrounding the couple’s split had intensified since November when they were seen without their wedding rings. Meanwhile, Simpson hinted at a personal “comeback” project, describing it as an apology to herself for enduring past hardships.
Recently, Simpson also faced external challenges, as she had to evacuate her home amid the wildfires raging in Los Angeles County. Sharing the experience on social media, she posted images of her Hidden Hills residence engulfed in smoke, highlighting the adversities she has been dealing with both personally and in terms of her living situation.
This latest development in Simpson’s life underscores her ongoing journey of self-discovery and resilience. While the road ahead remains uncertain, her focus on her children’s well-being and her commitment to personal growth offer a hopeful outlook for the future.
