Jessica Simpson marks 8 years sober amid divorce: 'Silenced my intuition'

Jessica Simpson Celebrates Eight Years of Sobriety Amid Divorce

Jessica Simpson marks eight years of sobriety while managing the end of her 11-year marriage with Eric Johnson. On November 1, the 45-year-old singer and fashion entrepreneur shared a reflection on her journey to recovery on Instagram.

Reflection on Sobriety

Simpson posted a radiant selfie accompanied by a heartfelt message about the changes she experienced after giving up alcohol.

“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. Alcohol silenced my intuition, blocked my dreams and chased my circulating fears of complacency.”

Faith and Strength

She emphasized how faith now guides her life and helps her stay strong.

“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.”

Impact on Creativity

Simpson revealed how sobriety improved her creative process, making her less afraid of herself.

“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.”

Personal Update

Earlier in 2025, Jessica filed for divorce from Eric Johnson after 11 years of marriage.
