After gradually returning to dating life following her breakup with Eric Johnson, Jessica Simpson referred to her favorite Hollywood stars as her romantic interests.
The 45-year-old artist, fresh from a divorce that took place early this year, shared her preferences when asked to choose the man worthy of being titled “People’s Sexiest Man Alive” during the 2025 MTV Video Music Awards, revealing the actors she finds most appealing.
Initially, her top pick was Charlie Hunnam, a 45-year-old actor recognized primarily for his portrayal of Jackson ‘Jax’ Teller in the series Sons of Anarchy.
Subsequently, Simpson included James Franco on her ‘persistent’ list of attractive individuals, expressing admiration for his perpetual charm, followed by mentioning the handsome star of Fifty Shades of Grey, Jamie Dornan.
She stated that many individuals exude an attractive charm. Currently being unattached, she finds everyone alluring at the moment…there are plenty of charming individuals. Ultimately, she added, “There are numerous handsome men in existence.
Unfortunately, all three of Simpson’s top picks are currently in relationships.
Since 2005, Hunnam has been in a relationship with artist Morgana McNelis; meanwhile, Franco has been dating Izabel Pakzad for about seven years, and Dornan has been married to Amelia Warner, the mother of his three daughters, since 2013.
During an appearance on the Today Show in July, the artist expressed her readiness to dive back into dating.
When Jenna Bush-Hager asked if she would consider being introduced, Simpson responded enthusiastically: “Absolutely, I’d be more than happy to give it a try.
‘What are you into so I can set my criteria?’ Bush-Hager asked.
‘My type of person is one of a kind. I don’t have a look, or anything,’ Simpson said.
‘I just like for somebody to be individually, who they are. And exude confidence without the ego.
It seems elusive, yet I have a strong intuition that it exists somewhere. I appreciate support from others, but I don’t require constant backup.
It would be great if I could maintain my current freedom and share it with others.
In a statement made public in January, Jessica shared that she and Eric had been residing apart due to a difficult time in their marriage, and the decision was made for them to part ways.
Putting our kids first, we’re ensuring their well-being takes priority. We’re deeply touched by the outpouring of affection and support we’ve received, and ask for a moment of privacy while we navigate this situation together as a family.
The pair share three children: daughter Maxwell, 13, son Ace, 12, and daughter Birdie, six.
The artist famous for “Take My Breath Away” – known for several prominent relationships – and the former NFL tight end exchanged wedding vows in 2014, following four years together.
In 2023 Jessica gushed about her husband in an interview with People.
An authentic love won’t ever leave you doubting yourself or the truth. My wonderful partner has allowed me to embrace love wholeheartedly, without worry of getting hurt,” she expressed.
The star also reflected on feeling that she was ‘hard to love.’
In simpler terms, she shared with People that loving others isn’t challenging for her, but she’s often felt that she might be difficult to love herself due to her intensity or busy schedule. The actress elaborated that he truly comprehends and appreciates her deeply more than anyone else she’s ever encountered in her life.
In September 2023 for his birthday, she posted pictures from their family gathering and wrote a heartfelt message along with them.
‘My heart is so taken with this Man, I could hardly call it my own…. We love youuuu,’ she wrote.
They welcomed their first two kids, Maxwell and Ace, in May 2012 and June 2013.
In the year 2014, their child, who was their son or daughter, played the roles of ring bearer and flower girl during their wedding ceremony. Approximately 250 attendees were present for this special occasion that took place in Montecito, California.
Jessica later welcomed their daughter Birdie in 2019.
Simpson was previously married to 98 Degrees boyband singer Nick Lachey from 2002 to 2006.
The couple’s relationship was featured on the reality TV series “Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica,” airing from 2003 to 2005, offering viewers a glimpse into their personal lives.
In the year 2006, Jessica found herself captivated by the charm of singer John Mayer, leading to an intense and stormy relationship.
In my professional opinion as a lifestyle expert, the bond between them was electrifying, and back in a noteworthy 2010 Playboy interview, I found myself using the term “sexual napalm” to describe her allure. To be completely honest, she had an addictive quality for me, similar to crack cocaine.
