Jessica Simpson Shuts Down Drinking Claim Amid Sobriety Journey: ‘You Have Me Very Misunderstood’

Jessica Simpson is setting the record straight for any doubters of her sobriety. The fashion mogul shut down speculation about her health in the comments of an Instagram post on Monday. Jessica had shared a tribute post for her son Ace, but someone replied with an unrelated message, “STOP DRINKING!” She kindly clapped back in a reply of her own, sharing that she’s hasn’t had a drink in more than six years. Jessica wrote, “I haven’t wanted or touched alcohol since October 2017 and it has been the best decision I’ve made for myself and for my family. Thank you for your concern, but you have me very misunderstood. Sending love your way.”
