Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson: Mystery Reunion on Vegas Flight Sparks Relationship Rumors
SPOTTED: Jessica Simpson and Ex-Husband Eric Johnson Reunite on Flight - But Is This a Sign of a Secret Romance?
The drama continues! Jessica Simpson, 45, and her ex-husband Eric Johnson, 45, have been spotted together again, leaving fans wondering if they're rekindling their romance. The Irresistible hitmaker and the former NFL player were seen sitting next to each other on a commercial plane at Burbank Airport last Friday, heading to Las Vegas on a Southwest Airlines jet.
But here's the twist - their kids, Maxwell, 12, Birdie, 5, and Ace, 11, were nowhere to be found! This has raised eyebrows as it's been seven months since they announced their split in January. Could this be a sign that Jessica and Eric are trying to work things out behind closed doors?
TheScholarlyNote.com reached out to reps for Jessica, but so far, there's been no comment from the singer's team.
Jessica was dressed in a bright red sweat suit, complete with long-sleeved crewneck top and flared bottoms. She strutted her stuff in black platform heels while lugging along a massive black leather bag with silver metal hardware. Her signature blonde locks were worn down as they flowed over her shoulders, and she donned dramatic makeup, including a smoky eye.
Eric, on the other hand, kept it simple in a T-shirt, jeans, Nike sneakers, and a Georgia Tech baseball cap. Despite their casual attire, there seemed to be some tension between them as Jessica was seen saying something to Eric while he looked away.
This comes just a month after Jessica opened up about dating again after her dramatic split with husband Eric amid cheating rumors. In an interview, she revealed that it's been "a rough road in the dating world" and that she's not ready for online dating just yet. When asked if she'd be open to being set up by a friend, she quipped, "Are you kidding me?"
But what really sparked our interest was when Jessica released her fiery comeback track "Leave," where she hints at infidelity on Eric's part. The lyrics are scathing, with lines like: 'What we had was magic / Now you've made it tragic / Giving her what you gave to me / Now the well that you drank from is empty.'
It seems like Jessica is still processing their split and trying to make sense of everything that went down. In April, she opened up onstage at the Luck Reunion about confronting Eric just before things fell apart, saying her world "turned upside down" after she followed her gut and asked "some very personal questions on the home front."
Their friends and family have been spotted with them several times since their split, signaling that they're trying to co-parent despite the drama. In fact, a source revealed that Jessica and Eric are getting along well and everyone seems to be happy about it.
"They talk and see each other all the time and have decided that no matter what happens, they will get along for the kids," the insider shared with USWeekly.
But don't get too excited just yet - there's still no official word on whether Jessica and Eric are getting back together. The source added: "Right now, there is no talk of getting back together." However, they didn't rule out the possibility entirely, teasing that "With Jessica and Eric, you never know."
It seems like their relationship status is still up in the air, but one thing's for sure - we'll be keeping a close eye on these two!
