Jessica Simpson’s Dad Demanding Shotgun Wedding?

Truth rating: 1

“Jessica’s Wedding War!” blares a headline from Star magazine, which goes on to claim that Jessica Simpson’s father is ordering her to marry Eric Johnson before she gives birth.

An “insider” for the tabloid says Joe Simpson, a Baptist minister, is “very upset Jess would want to have a child out of wedlock,” and is “trying his best to convince her how important it is to him and her mother that she get married before bringing a child into the world.”

Simpson’s dad is allegedly “pleading with Jessica non-stop” to let him officiate a “small backyard ceremony” like he did for Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz in 2008, one week before the younger Simpson announced her pregnancy.

The mag’s so-called insider says Joe will “keep pushing Jess to let him marry her and Eric right up until the day she gives birth in the spring,” and that his interference in her wedding plans is putting an awful “damper” on Simpson’s baby joy.

Of course, this is the same publication that wrongly reported Simpson was starving herself to get thin for her nuptials; paying Johnson to marry her; and that she stole him from his previous wife, so it’s a bit difficult for Gossip Cop to believe anything they claim to know about the singer-actress.

Regardless, we checked in with a source close to the family, who tells us no one is trying to interfere in Simpson’s wedding plans, which are still slated for after she gives birth.

    lol see Star is just trying to have all the angles covered so they can then say see we told you exclusivley. Why they don’t leave Jessica & Eric alone & let them enjoy there relationship & pregnancy is beyond explanation. If there is indeed another source spouting off then Jess needs to figure out who it is & clean house again as she did just a little under two years ago & figure out who her real friends are & not ones that claim to be. It may hurt for a bit but its better to know.

    I suspect the source is someone from the past that thinks they know but really knows nothing & is still creating some caos. Someone not part of her in crowd anymore or a couple of them that shall remain nameless

    Jessica Simpson is pregnant and All of the people and tabloids need to leave her alone. It is mean and plain awful to bother a pregnant woman. The organizations for pregnant women need to work on getting this stopped NOW. How would they like for someone in their family who is pregnant be treated this way? Whoever it is, is a vicious, mean, jealous, nasty dog that should be fed to the wolves. Star is part of this whether it came from a source or not. They have a right not to print trash that they know Jess has said a million times that the wedding is after she gives birth. Her dad has nothing to do with her because she is a grown woman and makes her own money.

    “Her dad has nothing to do with her because she is a grown woman.”

    What I meant is that she makes her own decisions. We have seen how independent Jess is with decisions.
