Jessica Simpson Reflects on 8 Years of Sobriety
Jessica Simpson is celebrating a significant milestone and embracing a renewed sense of purpose. On November 2, she marked eight years of sobriety and shared how eliminating alcohol reshaped her journey.
“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. Making that decision allowed me to fully live in the pursuit of God’s purpose for my life.”
Sobriety's Impact on Her Life
At 45, Simpson, who is mother to Maxwell, 13, Ace, 12, and Birdie, 6, with estranged husband Eric Johnson, reflected on the transformation sobriety brought to her perspective. She revealed that alcohol once “silenced my intuition, blocked my dreams and chased my circulating fears of complacency.”
“Today I am clear. Both fear and faith are something that we feel and may not see, 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.”
New Beginnings
This renewed outlook coincides with personal changes in her life. Simpson confirmed her separation from Johnson earlier this year and is preparing for her acting comeback. She will appear in the upcoming legal drama All’s Fair, starring alongside Kim Kardashian, Niecy Nash, and Sarah Paulson.
Summary: Jessica Simpson marks eight years of sobriety, embracing faith and personal growth while preparing for a fresh start in her acting career amid her recent separation.
