Fans wonder if Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson are 'on the rocks' after singer posts pictures without her wedding ring

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Earlier on Valentine's Day, Jessica Simpson and her husband, Eric Johnson, appeared to be in harmony, perhaps allaying reports of marital strife that surfaced when Simpson was shown in Instagram photos without her wedding ring.

Following the pop star's release of a series of pictures where she was not wearing her wedding ring on Friday, March 1, admirers of the blonde beauty once again began wondering if the couple was going through a difficult moment in their relationship, per OK! Magazine.

Fans wonder if Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson 'are on the rocks'

Although Simpson's social media posts have led to rumors regarding the couple's status, it's important to remember that she hasn't shared a picture of herself with Johnson since September 2023.

Simpson's Instagram profile mostly features images of herself, often with her famous acquaintances except for a few images of her children, whom she shares with Johnson.

Simpson wrote, "Orange Crush," as the caption for the recent photo that showed the mother-of-three sitting with her hands on her lap and posing in a bright orange dress.

Fans could not help but note that, although looking gorgeous in the form-fitting gown, Simpson was missing a crucial piece of jewelry.

One person questioned, "Wedding ring?" while another questioned, "Is she still married?"

"Apparently, they are on the rocks. I’ve always had a feeling they weren’t going to work out," one person asserted.

However, one fan defended the singer and said, "I’ve been married 25 years. I rarely if ever wear mine."

Fans' worries about the couple's relationship may be exacerbated by their selective moment sharing, but their Valentine's Day date implies that they are still together and enjoying each other's company.

Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson sought help to fix relationship issues

About to celebrate their 10th wedding anniversary in July, Simpson and Johnson are reportedly going strong.

As reported by OK! Magazine, an insider revealed that the couple—who were married in 2014—encountered a significant obstacle in their relationship and have since resorted to seeking professional help to resolve their problems.

The insider told the outlet, "Jessica and Eric say couples counseling has really saved their marriage and taught them invaluable life lessons."

"Even when times are tough, they know to still make each other a priority — which is why Eric insisted on [a] Valentine’s Day dinner," said the source.

The blonde beauty's decision to sober up six years ago, as previously reported, also contributed to the couple's continued relationship. "She’s totally recalibrated her life from top to bottom. Health, fitness, romance, parenting, work — and it makes her so proud," an insider added.

The insider went on, "Her life has totally changed for the better in so many ways and not just physically. They used to bicker a lot when she drank. Now they’ve learned to communicate better. Jessica is in touch with her feelings and not hiding behind booze anymore."

The 'Dukes of Hazzard' actress, however, has found it difficult to take on more work because she also looks after her kids: daughter Maxwell Drew, 11, and Birdie Mae, 4, and son Ace Knute, 10.

"Jessica is trying to do it all. It’s been hard but gratifying for her," another source revealed. "She wants to focus on making music again. She wants to pursue that passion and see where it leads at this stage of her life."
