The 'Employee Of The Month' Star Condemned The Incessant Comments About Her Weight

The public has previously raised concerns about Simpson's appearance. Last year, The Blast reported that the actress expressed frustration at the constant public scrutiny of her body. 

The actress noted her shock that people still focused on her weight after all these years. She said, "I think it just doesn't need to be a conversation." 

While the public scrutiny of her weight can sometimes be unbearable, it has an upside that benefits her. The singer explained that she has been "every size," which helped her learn how to design clothes for every woman in her clothing brand.

"Honestly, for the Jessica Simpson collection, it's been a beautiful thing. I do understand everybody and every woman and their mentality and how deserving they are of fashion and style, and it's just such a natural thing for me," she explained.

The Popstar Passed Down Her Confidence To Her Children

Simpson also discussed not letting her children feel bad about their bodies. The author of "Open Book" shared that she has taught them never to "dress for anyone else," only themselves.

The actress, who has three children with her husband, Eric Johnson, spoke about teaching her children to embrace their looks and never try to be "any other size." 

She gave the example of her eldest daughter, Maxwell Drew, who asked if she should feel insecure about being the "tallest girl in her grade." She replied to her child, "The fact that you're asking me if you should be insecure means absolutely not."

Simpson also revealed that she tries to be a "good role model" by discussing her body with her children. She also blocks out conversations about diets, criticizes her body, and has even "quit drinking." She noted, "They just see me living a healthy lifestyle."

Another Of Jessica Simpson's Posts That Got Fans Talking

Similar to her latest announcement, Simpson set tongues wagging on Instagram when she hinted at a return to music. In the same post, The Blast reported that she also fueled rumors about a possible split from her husband.

The post featured eye-catching photos of her in a figure-hugging white dress paired with a dramatic black fur coat, accessorized by a bold black and white body chain. 

She donned her world-famous classic smokey eye makeup and nude lips with sultry poses and powerful words to match her re-entry into the spotlight.

"Interviews in my Nashville music room where I unearthed my singular magic," she wrote in the caption. She, however, piqued people's interest when she attached a very cryptic personal note to the caption:

"This comeback is personal; it's an apology to myself for putting up with everything I did not deserve."

Rumors of tension in the singer's marriage may have some truth to them. Last month, The Blast reported that sources told the story that the couple, who have been together for over a decade, has been engrossed in marital issues.

An insider noted that Simpson feels the union is as good as done, stating, "It's pretty much over. It's only a matter of time before she files for divorce." Johnson also reportedly feels the same way and is "done" with what he sees as her "crazy mood swings." 

The source claims that the couple has grown entirely apart, with Johnson allegedly avoiding Simpson "for more than a year." Another source added that the father-of-three has been vocal about his frustrations, blaming Simpson's "obsession with surgery" and her perceived detachment from reality.

Will Jessica Simpson attend to her fans' questions?
