Jessica Simpson Opens Up About Relationship with John Mayer in New Memoir

Jessica Simpson recently revealed intimate details about her past relationship with singer John Mayer in her upcoming memoir, Open Book.

The 39-year-old singer, actress, and fashion mogul shared how she met Mayer at Clive Davis's Grammy party in 2005 while still married to Nick Lachey.

Despite being married, Simpson and Mayer began corresponding, with their interactions quickly turning intimate.

Following Simpson's separation from Lachey, she and Mayer dated secretly, eventually making headlines in August 2006.

Simpson confessed in her memoir that she fell in love with Mayer, who reciprocated her feelings by expressing both emotional and s**ual obsession towards her.

However, the relationship was not without its challenges.

Simpson admitted feeling insecure due to Mayer's intellect and wit, which made her doubt her own intelligence.

She recounted instances where she would have a friend review her texts for any errors before sending them to Mayer, showcasing the extent of her self-doubt.

The continuous emotional turmoil led Simpson to rely on alcohol as a coping mechanism, a habit she struggled with until achieving sobriety in 2017.

Despite the tumultuous nature of their relationship, Simpson acknowledged being captivated by Mayer's love for an extended period before finally deciding to walk away.

In 2010, Mayer's explicit revelations about his s** life with Simpson in a Playboy interview shocked her.

His graphic descriptions of their intimacy left her embarrassed and disappointed, prompting her to cut ties with him by deleting his number.

Simpson emphasized the importance of privacy when it comes to discussing intimate matters, expressing her discomfort with such public disclosures.

While Simpson appreciated Mayer's subsequent public apology, she made it clear that their relationship had reached its end.

She commended his gesture but maintained her decision to move on from the past.

Reflecting on her growth and self-discovery, Simpson highlighted her journey towards finding true love with her second husband, Eric Johnson, a former football player.

Simpson's memoir not only delves into her personal relationships but also sheds light on her struggles with addiction stemming from childhood trauma.

She candidly discusses her experience with alcohol and pill dependency, attributing it to being s**ually abused from a young age.

Through her book and accompanying audiobook, Simpson aims to share her story of resilience and healing, accompanied by new songs inspired by her life's journey.

Open Book is set to release on Feb. 4, offering readers a deeper understanding of Jessica Simpson's life beyond the glitz and glamour of the entertainment industry.

Her narrative serves as a testament to overcoming adversity and embracing personal growth, resonating with those facing similar challenges in their own lives.
