Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson have separated after a decade, focusing on their children during this difficult time
She emphasized that their kids are the priority, and they’re grateful for the support they’ve received. It’s been a challenging time, and they’re asking for privacy as they work through this as a family.
Rumors about their split had been swirling for months. Fans noticed Eric hadn’t appeared on Jessica’s Instagram since early 2023, and she stopped wearing her wedding ring in January 2024.
The couple, who married in 2014 after four years of dating, have three kids: Maxwell, Ace, and Birdie. Recently, they had to evacuate their home due to wildfires in California, which added to the stress.
Jessica shared a photo of the smoke-filled backyard on her Instagram Story, expressing how long they stayed before leaving. It’s unclear if they’ve returned home or if it’s safe.
In early September, Eric was missing from a family photo Jessica posted, raising more eyebrows about their relationship. She celebrated their kids’ first day back to school, but Eric was noticeably absent.
Reports indicated they were living “separate lives,” with Jessica splitting her time between Los Angeles and Nashville for her music career. Meanwhile, Eric was focused on the kids’ schooling in LA.
Their romance began in 2010, and they tied the knot in July 2014. Jessica was previously married to Nick Lachey and had relationships with other notable figures. Now, they’re both navigating this new chapter in their lives.
