Jessica Simpson may have recently ditched her wedding ring, but it sounds like she’s still with her husband … at least she was on Valentine’s Day, anyway.
Here’s the deal … Jessica sent fans into panic mode Thursday when she posted a series of photos on Instagram without her wedding band … leading to speculation she was, perhaps, on the outs with her hubby, Eric Johnson.
Thing is … Jessica and Eric were spotted out to dinner the night before, on a Valentine’s Day date no less … hitting up Ivy At The Shore in Santa Monica — obviously for some alone time.
Folks who were there tell us Jessica and Eric had a table to themselves and they looked happy together … showing no signs of a potential split. If anything, they looked totally normal — at least that’s what was described to us … no signs of trouble in paradise.
We should note … Jessica going ring-less for the day after Valentine’s isn’t the only source of the breakup rumors … frankly, she hasn’t shared a pic with Eric since September, which is also a factor. Some have speculated something may be amiss between them lately.
Of course, a quick glance at Jessica’s IG and you’ll see it’s mostly just photos of her … with an occasional celeb friend … and only a couple shots with the children she shares with Eric.
So, maybe fans are reading too much into Jessica’s social media image … and jumping to conclusions. In any case, they were all good on Wednesday night when they chowed down.
Remember, Jessica and Eric got hitched back in 2014 and they have 3 kids together … and based on this V-Day date, any talk of a split seems premature — if not totally off base.
