Jessica Simpson Reacts to Rumors She's the Next Bachelorette

As Jessica noted about her romantic life, “I am having fun!”

Though she’s dipping her toes back into the dating pond, Jessica has made it clear that she’s all about maintaining a healthy co-parenting relationship with her ex. In fact, the former couple put on a united front in September as they watched her sister Ashlee Simpson Ross return to the stage in Las Vegas.

"We are all a big, happy family,” Jessica told E! News in September. “So it's important for all of us.”

The All’s Fair actress also made it clear that Eric was part of the holiday season to ensure that their kids maintain a connection with him, despite what they are going through.

“No matter what, your kid is half the other person,” Jessica told TMZ in December. “Always have respect in what you say around [your kids] so they can always have a good perspective on it. Unconditional love is important.”
