Jessica Simpson’s husband Eric Johnson ditches his wedding ring
Jessica Simpson’s husband Eric Johnson has ditched his wedding ring just days after the singer hinted the marriage is over.
RadarOnline.com recently revealed how the “With You” singer and the former NFL star were headed for divorce following their “trial separation.”
As seen in photos published on Thursday, November 14, Johnson, 45, was photographed earlier this week walking around Los Angeles without his wedding ring.
Simpson also added fuel to the rumors earlier this week when she posed for a new fashion shoot without her wedding ring.
She captioned the post: “This comeback is personal, it’s an apology to myself for putting up with everything I didn’t deserve.”
Fans quickly took to the comments section to question her marital status.
One user asked: “Is this J Simp saying she’s single?”
Another replied: “I think her pictures have been saying that for months.”
A third wrote: “Yes, I mentioned this a while ago. We love you. Stay strong.”
However, one user defended Johnson, writing, “If it’s a breakup post…remember…your husband was there for you and stood by your side through your darkest days.”
The Dukes of Hazzard star has been going out without her wedding ring for months.
The couple was last spotted together in June when their daughter Birdie graduated from kindergarten.
They also share two other children: Maxwell, 12, and son Ace, 11.
In September, Simpson shared a handful of photos from their children’s first day of school — without Johnson or her wedding ring in sight.
A source said this earlier RadarOnline.com: “Eric has had it with her crazy mood swingsand Jessica feels like their marriage has lost its romance.
“Everyone is wondering how long they can keep going like this.”
We previously reported that the couple is still alive mostly separate lives for almost a year.
The couple married in 2014 after welcoming their two eldest children.
During their marriage, the couple dealt with Simpson’s brutal alcohol addiction, followed by her journey to sobriety.
In August 2024, Simpson shut down rumors that she was drinking again following fan speculation.
The singer wrote: “I haven’t wanted or touched alcohol since October 2017 and it has been the best decision I have made for myself and my family. Thank you for your concern, but you greatly misunderstand me. Sending love your way.”
Jessica and Eric have not officially commented on their current relationship status despite the ongoing rumors.
