There’s been a lot of talk about Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson’s marriage suggesting things might not be going well.
A friend of the 44-year-old “With You” singer reportedly contacted a divorce lawyer in late October to get some advice about her and Johnson’s situation.
The friend is said to have contacted a lawyer, although it remains uncertain whether that was Simpson’s request.
“A person close to Jessica met with a divorce lawyer in Los Angeles and said that Jessica was unhappy in her marriage and wanted to arrange a meeting with the lawyer and Simpson,” TMZ reported.
Notably, Simpson has never worked directly with any divorce lawyers.
Another attorney in Los Angeles was approached by a member of the blonde beauty’s team about the matter, but the specifics of the discussion have not yet been disclosed.
“We have learned that someone on Jessica’s team has contacted another divorce attorney in Los Angeles regarding divorce-related matters. Again, to date we have been told that there has been no any next step.”
At the beginning of the year, speculation arose about Simpson’s possible breakup when she did not wear her wedding ring in many social media posts.
While the rumors eventually faded, they recently resurfaced when the singer and actress shared a cryptic quote on Instagram along with hints about upcoming music releases.

“This comeback is personal, it’s an apology to myself for having to endure everything I didn’t deserve.”
Rumors reached sister Ashlee Simpson, who was confronted by a curious photographer on November 11.
“Is that true? Did you know?” the father asked and the younger sister replied, “No.”
Since exchanging vows in 2010, Simpson and the former NFL player have faced challenges in their marriage. They attribute their successful marriage to couples therapy.
Furthermore, the athlete has supported Simpson in her battle with alcoholism, which she opened up about in 2020.
