replying to this really late to say it was johnny knoxville. they had a very intense (by her own admission) “emotional affair”:
Jessica Simpson Had an "Emotional Affair" with Johnny Knoxville While Married to Nick Lachey
In her memoir, Open Book, Simpson writes about her connection with her former costar.www.harpersbazaar.com
they apparently wrote each other love letters every day but never acted on it (which, hmmm )
I don't think nick seems like a particularly nice guy or down to earth (remember on love is blind 'and of course I'm nick lachey )but I agree she might have exaggerated. Ultimately the whole relationship for me just epitomises the problems with not living with someone etc before marriageI think she's swapped one addiction for another unfortunately (either an ED or Ozempic).
I have a soft spot for her I think because Newlyweds was a huge part of my teenage years. I think she exaggerated how bad things were with Nick in her book to justify what she did with Johnny et al. I think they were happier for a lot longer than she makes out. It's only in the last season of Newlyweds you see the dynamic change. I always get very pick me vibes from her. She moulds to fit the guy she's with. Do not like Eric at all, especially as he's basically been unemployed by choice since being with her.
I like Nick a lot, he seems a very down to earth guy. I have nothing against Vanessa and they seem to suit eachother but she did seem very desperate in the beginning.

It doesn't surprise me she married someone like him considering the example she had of her own father who seemed awfulI thought Nick Lachey was horrible to her on Newlyweds and clearly treated her quite badly and was jealous of her success.
Really?! I thought he came across as so condescending towards her and also low key very jealous of her career/money?!I thought he bent over backwards to please her and her over bearing interfering parents.
Very trueI think towards the end, the relationship turned so toxic it came across that way.
Nick was embarrassed at getting such a low budget for his video and she rubbed in her huge budgets.
Nick wouldn't have been getting sex and you could see he was getting annoyed with her for example in a restaurant she wanted a bit of his meal and he was getting fed up with her choosing a peice lol.
I think all in all he was very supportive at the beginning.. but at the end he knew the relationship was going to the dogs so gave up pussy footing around.

His jealousy was so obvious.He was definitely jealous. He was the ‘big’ boyband star when they first got together and she was a low rent Britney. Then newlyweds shot her fame level up and then her daisy duke era, he couldn’t handle it.
