Jessica Simpson is reportedly “heartbroken” amid her rumored split from husband Eric Johnson.
One source told Us Weekly that it has been “an incredibly difficult time” for the singer, who shares three children with the retired football player.
“[It was] not an easy decision for her,” the insider told the outlet Friday.

Johnson fueled divorce speculation this past week when he was seen without his wedding band during an outing in Los Angeles.
The former San Francisco 49ers tight end had his ring-free hand on display on Tuesday while taking a casual stroll with his parents.
The fashion designer, meanwhile, has been ditching her wedding ring for months in photos posted on her social media.

“In years past, Jess always attended events at the school either solo or with Eric, never [him] alone. But recently, it’s just been Eric,” the insider told us.
“As you can imagine, there’s been a lot of gossip among the parents.”
