Jessica Simpson and her husband Eric Johnson, aka retired NFL pro turned Mystery Man, might be the latest couple sparking up the rumor mill. Why? Because apparently, both have ditched the “married” look—we’re talking no wedding rings, no couple selfies, and no side-by-side-at-Disneyland appearances for over a year.
The people of the internet are in full detective mode, scrolling through Jessica’s Instagram like it’s the latest mystery thriller. “Not a single Eric pic in 365+ days!” they say, clutching their proverbial pearls. Fans are also obsessing over Eric’s own no-ring photos, and as any self-respecting sleuth knows, bare hands equal bare hearts, right?
Even Jessica’s sister Ashlee Simpson got dragged into the “Are They or Aren’t They?” frenzy. Poor Ashlee probably just wanted to grab a latte and write a nostalgic 2000s bop but instead got an unsolicited press conference about her sister’s relationship.
Now, a source who sounds like they have VIP access to every room in the Simpson-Johnson household is here to spill the tea. According to them, Jessica’s busy bouncing between Los Angeles and Nashville, working on some tunes and possibly plotting a country music takeover. Meanwhile, Eric’s holding down the L.A. fort, managing the school drop-offs, and living what the source dramatically calls “a separate life.”
Does it mean they’re on the rocks, or are they just that level of chill where they can spend quality time away from each other without sparking a marital meltdown? For now, your guess is as good as ours, but in the world of celebrity couples, one thing’s for sure—Instagram’s got more detectives than Scotland Yard.
