Jessica Simpson addresses rumors that she’s back to drinking: you got me entirely wrong
Those who say Jessica Simpson is consuming alcohol once more are getting back at them.
The singer shared a picture with her kid Ace on Instagram on Monday, August 5. Shortly after, a follower commented on the photo, saying, «STOP DRINKING!»
The 44-year-old promptly silenced the naysayer and reassured her followers that she remains sober.
She added, «Since October 2017, I have not desired or consumed alcohol, and it has been the best choice I have made for my family and myself.»
«I appreciate your compassion, but I think you’ve got me completely wrong. I’m thinking of you with affection.
As soon as she responded, the Instagram user took instant responsibility for her presumption and apologized.
Simpson had almost seven years of sobriety. The singer documented her feelings at the start of her sobriety journey on Instagram in 2021, celebrating her success and posting a candid selfie of herself from her first day sober.
«This person on November 1, 2017, early in the morning, is a completely different me. I had so much to learn about and understand about myself,» she stated.
«I knew right then and there that I would give myself permission to reclaim my light, to triumph over my inner struggle for self-respect, and to face this world with piercing clarity.»
«I personally had to give up drinking alcohol in order to accomplish this because it kept my heart and mind racing in the same direction, and to be honest, I was tired,» she said.
«I desired to experience the agony in order to wear it as a badge of honor.»
I wanted to live the life of a leader—breaking cycles and moving forward so that I would never look back and feel sorry for any decisions I have made or will make in this wonderful world for the rest of my days.»
