It’s no secret that Jessica Simpson likes to blow off steam by downing some Scotch, and the sight of Jessica drunkenly stumbling out of a club has made for a memorably viral video on more than one occasion.
But while we thought those clips showed a stressed out entrepreneur and mom (and possibly a lightweight) overindulging on the occasional night off, it turns out Jessica might be knocking ’em back far more than originally thought.
In fact, sources say husband Eric Johnson is now insisting that Jessica go to rehab.
As is so often the case with addicts, Jessica doesn’t think that she has a problem, so other family members are now getting involved in hopes of helping the 34-year-old mother of two see the light.
Radar Online is reporting that Jessica’s mother has offered her a deal: If you go to rehab, I’ll go too.
“Going to rehab with Jessica means she can kill two birds with one stone,” says one insider. “Tina sees it as a win-win for mother and daughter.”
It seems Jess’ mom developed a drinking problem after she and Joe Simpson divorced back in 2013.
Tina is soon to be remarried and she hopes to be stone sober by the time she walks down the aisle.
Will Jess accept this opportunity to help herself and her mother at the same time? We certainly hope so. Seeing Jessica drunk on the red carpet isn’t funny anymore, now that we know she actually has a problem.
