Jessica Simpson & BFF Hair Stylist Ken Paves Part Ways
Monday, at the Women’s Conference in Long Beach, California, she confirmed the run-in:
“He was at the same restaurant. I didn’t speak to him.”
She was then asked a couple of questions about her weight and about the role of food in her life. She responded:
“When I’m hungry, I’ll eat. When I’m not hungry, I won’t. I’m not really that much of a calorie counter, but I do think about it. I make sure I’m working out to make sure I feel good about myself.”
“I’m from Texas, I like everything fried, which is the really unfortunate thing. My relationship with food? I want it when I’m sad. When I’m happy, I don’t think much about it. But I do like to go out on a date for a good dining experience. It’s important not to say, ‘I can’t have this’ because then I obsess about it.”
Jessica Simspon “Very Happy” With Boyfriend Eric Johnson
On her new beau, football player Eric Johnson:
“He definitely makes me very happy. He brings out a lot of light in me and makes me very comfortable being who I am. It’s nice to be with somebody who praises you for the right reasons.”
And will the two be tying the knot anytime soon?:
“Wedding? Right now I’m focused on my precious nephew and godson. However, I am from the south so I’ve definitely dreamed of being married my whole life and having children, so hopefully that’s in my future.”
Good plan, Jessica. Glad to see you happy and healthy!
