Jessica Simpson has spoken about the reason behind her public divorce with ex-hubby Nick Lachey for the first time.
In a recent interview, Jessica explained that she knew their marriage was over, when they spent their third wedding anniversary apart.
Jessica spent their third (and last) wedding anniversary in Africa, on a charity trip for Operation Smile, while Nick decided to stay at home.
“I went [to Africa] on our three-year wedding anniversary. [Nick] stayed home. On that day, everything became so clear.â€Â
“I was in hospitals with all these sick kids, and I was looking at the beauty of this whole different world. I just knew I needed to find something more in my life – on my own.â€Â
When Jessica went home, she and Nick discussed their situation. “We realised that everything is not what we expected it to be, as hurtful as that may be,†Simpson said.
Jessica also admitted that the appearance of a ‘double rainbow’ in the sky helped her realise that she was doing the right thing. “I prayed, then looked up at the sky, and I’d never seen this before – it was a double rainbow. It was the most gorgeous thing ever. From that moment on, I’ve listened to Judy Garland’s ‘Somewhere Over The Rainbow’ every single day.”
I wonder if she’ll be recording a cover of the Wizard of OZ classic for her next CD?
