Jessica Simpson Celebrates Eight Years of Sobriety Amid Divorce
Jessica Simpson is marking eight years of sobriety while going through the end of her 11-year marriage to Eric Johnson. On November 1, the 45-year-old singer and fashion icon shared a heartfelt reflection on Instagram about her journey toward recovery.
“8 years ago today I made the choice to confront, to confess and to let go of the self-sabotaging parts of my life that I was choosing.”
She explained how quitting alcohol transformed her life:
“Making that decision allowed me to fully live in the pursuit of God’s purpose for my life. Alcohol silenced my intuition, blocked my dreams and chased my circulating fears of complacency.”
Simpson said faith now guides her daily, writing:
“Today I am clear. Today I am driven by faith… I’m so happy I chose faith over fear. It was not in the fight that I found my strength, it was in the surrender.”
Sobriety’s Impact on Creativity
Her decision to give up alcohol also had a profound effect on her creative process. Speaking to The Cut in February, shortly after filing for divorce, she shared:
“Every time I would write, I was a little afraid of myself… especially because I was drinking at the time. But once I gave up the alcohol, the fears just diminished. They went away.”
Divorce Announcement
Earlier in 2025, Simpson filed for divorce from Eric Johnson after more than a decade of marriage, marking a significant turning point in her personal life.
