Jessica Simpson Unveils Hollywood Crushes After Divorce
Jessica Simpson Spills the Tea on Her Hollywood Crushes and Singles Life
The juicy details are finally out! After a nearly decade-long marriage, Jessica Simpson has officially entered the dating scene, and she's got her eyes on some of Tinseltown's hottest leading men.
The 45-year-old singer and actress made waves at the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards when she revealed her top picks for People's Sexiest Man Alive. And let's just say, they're not exactly easy to get - or so we thought!
First up is Charlie Hunnam, the hunky star of Sons of Anarchy fame. Simpson can't get enough of his rugged good looks and charming on-screen presence. But what she might not know is that Hunnam has been in a long-term relationship with artist Morgana McNelis since 2005.
Next on her list is James Franco, who's always managed to turn heads with his eccentric style and undeniable sex appeal. Simpson admits he's "always" sexy, but it looks like Franco's heart belongs to someone else - his girlfriend Izabel Pakzad has been by his side for seven years.
Last but certainly not least, Simpson gave a nod of approval to Fifty Shades of Grey heartthrob Jamie Dornan. But don't get too excited, ladies - Dornan is actually a married man, having tied the knot with Amelia Warner in 2013 and fathering three adorable daughters with her.
So, what's behind Simpson's newfound interest in dating? Sources close to the singer claim she's been feeling "restless" since her split from husband Eric Johnson earlier this year. And who can blame her? The two were married for nearly a decade and share three beautiful kids together - Maxwell, Ace, and Birdie.
But it looks like Simpson is ready to put her feet back in the dating pool, and she's not afraid to speak her mind about what she's looking for in a partner. "My type of person is one of a kind," she revealed on The Today Show earlier this summer. "I don't have a look or anything... I just like for somebody to be individually, who they are. And exude confidence without the ego."
When asked if she'd consider being set up by friends or family members, Simpson gave a resounding "yes" - and even offered some cryptic advice on what her ideal match might be like. "It's hard to find, but I feel like it's out there," she mused.
So, who will be Jessica's next lucky love? Will she finally get her hands on one of these Hollywood heartthrobs, or will she opt for someone a little more down-to-earth? Only time (and perhaps a well-placed tabloid or two) will tell!
In the meantime, Simpson has plenty to keep herself busy - including co-parenting with Johnson and keeping up with her latest business ventures. And if you're wondering how she's doing after the split, Simpson gave a hint in an Instagram post earlier this year: "My heart is so taken with this Man, I could hardly call it my own..."
It looks like Jessica Simpson has got the spotlight back on herself - and we can't wait to see what's next!
A Brief History of Jessica's High-Profile Romances
This isn't Simpson's first rodeo when it comes to high-profile romances. In fact, she's had her fair share of A-list relationships over the years.
One of her most famous beaus was none other than John Mayer - the two shared a passionate but tumultuous romance in 2006 that left fans and media outlets alike buzzing with excitement (and occasionally, concern).
Before Mayer, Simpson was married to 98 Degrees heartthrob Nick Lachey from 2002 to 2006. Their relationship was documented on the reality show Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica, which ran from 2003 to 2005.
Of course, no conversation about Simpson's love life would be complete without mentioning her current husband Eric Johnson - a retired NFL tight end who she married in 2014 after four years of dating. The two share three adorable kids together and have been through ups and downs as any couple does.
But it looks like that chapter is now closed, and Simpson is ready to take on the world... or at least, the dating scene! Who's ready for some tabloid drama?
