Jessica Simpson is dating former pro baller Eric Johnson and she’s been telling everyone he’s her future husband. Eric, on the other hand, doesn’t want to rush in to things because he’s worried he’s not financially secure enough to start a life with her. No worries though. Jessica has enough money for the both of them. To prove it, she bought herself her own engagement ring.
“She bought herself an engagement ring! A $50,000 three carat emerald-cut diamond!” a friend tells the mag.
“Eric is worried he’s not financially secure enough to start a future with her, but Jessica wanted to show him that she doesn’t care about that – and she has enough money for them both.”
But Eric’s estranged wife (he might want to sort that out before gets engaged!) reckons he’s flat broke, and that’s why he’s freeloading off Jess.
“Eric is plain out of money,” Keri Johnson tells InTouch. “He was going to grad school because he didn’t know what else to do, and then he just dropped out.
“He lived with me until October of last year, but now I think he’s living in her house.”
So romantic. Every girl dreams of dating a broke grad school dropout and pressuring him into marriage by buying themselves their own engagement ring. Seriously. The only thing Eric brings to this relationship is a penis. Whenever Jessica lets him take it out of the jar she keeps it in, I mean.
