Jessica Simpson Marks Eight Years of Sobriety
American actress and singer Jessica Simpson has celebrated eight years of sobriety, sharing an emotional message reflecting on her recovery and growth. To mark the milestone, she posted a recent selfie and spoke candidly about her past struggles with alcohol and the transformation that followed.
“Eight years ago today, I made the decision to face, accept, and release the parts of my life that I chose to sabotage. Making this decision allowed me to live fully by seeking God's purpose in my life. Alcohol silenced my intuition, blocked my dreams, and fueled my fear of self-confidence.”
Jessica explained that the choice to quit drinking gave her the chance to live with clarity and intention. She described her journey as deeply personal and spiritual, bringing her peace and a renewed sense of self.
“Today I see clearly. Both fear and faith are feelings that we cannot always see, but we can feel. I am so glad I chose faith over fear. I did not find my strength in struggle—but in surrender.”
She also shared that, during her drinking years, she often wrote music but felt her creativity was limited by alcohol. Now, she says, her writing is more open, genuine, and connected to her true voice.
