Jessica Simpson, the 45-year-old singer, has entered a new romance with Nashville-based musician Thomas Eisenhood. The couple has been together for three months after connecting through mutual friends. Eisenhood has not yet met Simpson’s three children.
Family and Recent Split
Simpson shares daughters Maxwell, who turns 14 in May, and Birdie, 7, along with son Ace, 12, with her ex-husband Eric Johnson, 46, a former NFL player. She announced their separation in January 2025 following a 10-year marriage.
In her statement, Simpson shared, “Eric and I have been living separately, navigating a painful situation in our marriage.”
Music Comeback and Breakup Hints
Rumors of trouble surfaced in November 2024 as Simpson teased fresh music from her Nashville studio. She posted online, “Interviews in my Nashville music room where I unearthed my singular magic. This comeback is personal. It’s an apology to myself for putting up with everything I did not deserve.”
During a July appearance on the Today show with co-host Jenna Bush-Hager, Simpson revealed she felt ready to date again. She recently chose to retain their $17.9 million Los Angeles mansion while dividing time between California and Tennessee.
Last year, Simpson dropped a two-part EP titled Nashville Canyon. The first installment arrived in March, soon after her separation news. In a behind-the-scenes clip, she reflected, “The reward of a broken heart is a ballad. You gotta feel to heal.”
Upcoming Performances and Past Romances
Simpson gears up for concerts in May and June. On Instagram, where she has 6.2 million followers, she announced in March, “I am very ready for my concert era folks! Here are the first dates of 2026 that I get to set my soul free on stage! I’m fired up to rock n roll, are y’all? Presale code: JESS.”
Prior to her marriage to Johnson in 2014, Simpson wed Nick Lachey from 2002 to 2006. Afterward, she dated John Mayer and Tony Romo.
