Jessica Simpson Hurtling Towards Divorce from Eric Johnson: Report

1 month ago 10

Jessica Simpson is rumored to be on the verge of divorce.

Late this past winter, reports said that Jessica Simpson was determined to fix her marriage. There had been signs that she and husband Eric Johnson were having problems.

The signs have not gone away. Not permanently.

Amidst the latest marital red flags, a new report says that Jessica Simpson is basically done with her marriage.

Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson’s marriage may be on its last leg … if it has any left

Recently, Jessica Simpson has been once again going without her wedding ring. Additionally, just last month, she publicly ignored husband Eric Johnson’s birthday instead of posting the usual tribute.

According to a new report by In Touch Weekly, Jessica Simpson’s snubs are no coincidence. The 10-year marriage is about to come crashing down.

“It’s pretty much over,” an inside source dished about the state of her marriage. “It’s only a matter of time before she files for divorce.”

On July 5, 2014, Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson married. The two had already been in a relationship for years, having welcomed daughter Maxwell Drew in 2012 and son Ace Knute in 2013.

In the past, including in 2023, Jessica Simpson has honored Eric Johnson on his birthday, September 15. But not this year.

What did Jessica Simpson post instead?

Jessica Simpson didn’t take a day off of social media for husband Eric Johnson’s birthday in September. Instead, she took to her Instagram Story to share a video clip in which a preacher spoke about the value of forgiveness, something valued within Christianity.

Sometimes, people — even public figures — don’t publicly acknowledge a birthday. For celebrities, they usually know that people might wonder why. There can be a deliberate choice to celebrate the person in real life instead of putting on a social media performance.

But for Jessica Simpson to ignore Eric Johnson’s birthday and post a vague video about forgiveness … that felt, to many, like a message. And it was not alone.

Another major issue is that Jessica Simpson has been going ringless for some time. As far as the public knows, she last wore her wedding ring back in January of 2024.

As we have previously reported, insiders have alleged that “the ring comes off” when Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson are fighting. It’s not out of pettiness or emotional blackmail — but she feels like she’s living a lie if she wears it when things are bad.

Jessica didn’t mention Eric in her 2024 Valentine’s Day post. And he hasn’t appeared on her Instagram since April, and that was a photo of him holding Birdie during a family photo.

How does Eric Johnson feel about all of this?

In an October 18 report by Life & Style, an inside source alleged that “Eric has had it with her crazy mood swings. And Jessica feels like their marriage has lost its romance. Everyone’s wondering how long they can go on like this.”

The insider claimed: “Eric has been doing his own thing for longer than anyone seems to know.” The source even added that he had been keeping his distance from Jessica “for more than a year.”

While it’s obviously a shame if two people who once loved each other cannot get along. That said, if they’re unhappy in their marriage and they cannot fix it, they don’t need to torture themselves — or each other. How long until they call it quits for real?
