Jessica Simpson’s Marriage to Eric Johnson Called ‘Suffocating’ Amid Growing Tensions

Jessica Simpson’s recent separation from her husband, Eric Johnson, is being described as a much-needed decision for her well-being. A source close to the actress and singer told People Magazine, “Their marital issues have felt suffocating for a while,” adding that Simpson needed to “move on for her own well-being.”

On Monday, Simpson, 44, publicly addressed her rocky marriage, confirming the separation. “We have been living separately, navigating a painful situation in our marriage,” she shared. Despite the difficult circumstances, Simpson emphasized the importance of their children, stating, “Our children come first, and we are focusing on what is best for them.

We are grateful for all of the love and support that has been coming our way and appreciate privacy right now as we work through this as a family.” Earlier this week, another insider revealed to People that the couple had been separated for some time but reassured fans that Simpson is “doing OK.”

The source also mentioned that Simpson is looking forward to her musical comeback and is “excited about her new album.” Although the decision to separate has not been easy, the source emphasized that Simpson did not take it lightly.

The couple, who married in 2014, share three children: daughters Maxwell “Maxi” Drew, 12, and Birdie Mae, 5, and son Ace Knute, 11. The same insider also shared that Simpson and Johnson have already established a new co-parenting arrangement for their children.

“They have already figured out a new schedule for the kids,” the source said, noting that Simpson and Johnson are “both great parents.” The couple is committed to ensuring their children’s well-being, with Simpson expressing gratitude for her kids during this challenging time.

While the separation has marked a difficult chapter in Simpson’s personal life, she continues to prioritize her family and her career as she navigates the next steps forward.
