Jessica Simpson has a memoir coming out, and in it, she gets real about her life. This morning she spoke to Hoda Kotb on Today about parts of her book that are not easy to read.
The singer was sexually abused by a family friend for six years starting when she was just 6 years old. She knew it was wrong, but she did not know how to tell anyone about it. One day she told her parents, and she never had to go back to his house again. She also says her parents did not know how to talk to her about it.
When she was teenager, she was offered a record deal. They told to lose 15 pounds and that order started her 20-year addiction diet pills.
Also, when she was a teenager, she met Nick Lachey. As soon as she saw him, she knew he was going to be her husband. Together they were good. Yet, when their careers were separate, they were not as good. Her getting all the attention was hard on their marriage. When she couldn’t fake it anymore, they got divorced.
Eventually, she met Eric Johnson, the man of her dreams, and they have three kids together. They looked happy, but she was always drinking. In photos,, it appeared that everything was perfect and that is what she wanted us to see. When the cameras were not flashing, she had no idea what was going on.
Then on Halloween in 2017, she knew she had to stop. She had no idea who got her kids ready for Halloween, and she wanted to be present as a mom. She stopped drinking, went to therapy and got her life back on track. Or maybe you can say for the first time in her life.
Now, she is sober, an author, and she is ready to get back to what she does best. That is singing. She will have new music coming out along with the book. Open book comes out on Febraury 4th.

On March 19th, Jessica Simpson gave birth to her third child. Since then she has lost 100 pounds. As we know, she put on a lot of weight during that pregnancy as normal women do.
That was then, now she is back to svelte self. She did not say how she lost the weight, but she did reveal she tipped the scale at 240 pounds. You would never know that looking at her now. Time for her to put in those Daisy Dukes again.

Jessica Simpson is releasing a memoir! |

Today, we learned that not only can Jessica Simpson read, but she can also write. That is because the singer announced that she is releasing a memoir in February with Harper Collins. She says, “I have been working so hard on it – I have opened my heart up in a way I never have before and I can’t wait to share it with you 💚.”
What can we expect from her untitled book? The publisher describes it as, “From her popular television show Newlyweds, to a very public divorce, starring on the big screen and topping the Billboard charts, finding new love, raising a family, and running a successful business empire, her new book will be a candid, inspiring, and behind-the-scenes look at how she chose to learn from each difficult moment, evolve musically, become a more fearless businesswoman, and consistently shatter all expectations of who she was ‘supposed’ to be.”
We can say a lot of things about her, but she has always been real and honest with us. I expect her book to be the same. I think it will be the type of page-turner you cannot put down. Especially since it will be an easy read. Sorry, I had to go there. I will never forget Chicken of the Sea.

Back in January, Jessica Simpson shared a photo of her swollen leg from pregnancy. Now that Birdie Mae is out of her, her legs are returning to normal. It only took her three months to see her ankles again which is not that bad considering her third child almost weighed 11 lbs. at birth. She is lucky she was ever able to see her legs again.

As we know, Jessica Simpson looked like she was going to have a big baby and she did. Birdie Mae Johnson came into the World yesterday weighing 10 Pounds 13 Ounces. That is enough to make any woman cross her legs. Well, not pregnant women, they will be like just get this creature out of me! Which is what I am sure what Simpson was saying throughout her labor.
Birdie is Simpson and Eric Johnson’s third child together. They also have another daughter, Maxwell Drew, 6, and a son Ace Knute, 5.
