Real reason Jessica Simpson finally split from Eric Johnson and the desperate attempts she made to save their marriage


The actress, 44, announced she had split from Johnson, 45, her husband of 10 years, on Monday, after 'navigating a painful situation in our marriage.'

Jessica Simpson turned to counselling, spiritual healing and tantric exercises in a desperate bid to save her marriage, but ultimately, she needed to walk away after concerned friends raised fears that the strain could break her sobriety. The Dukes of Hazzard star, who was forced to flee her Hidden Hills mansion this week, grew tired of making the effort as Johnson became progressively more ‘absent’ in recent years Speculation that her relationship was on the rocks had been growing in recent months, with Simpson fuelling the talk when she shared pictures without her wedding rings and cryptically told fans her musical comeback will address how she has put up 'with everything I did not deserve.'
