Jessica Simpson, 40, is radiant as she shares makeup-free selfie: ‘The sunrise was huggable’

Jessica Simpson was radiant in a sun-drenched new selfie she posted to her Instagram page this weekend.

The 40-year-old wore some dazzling jewelry including hoop earrings and a couple of necklaces but appeared to have gone without makeup.

‘The sunrise was huggable,’ she gushed in her caption for the benefit of her more than five and a half million followers.

Jessica shares her children Maxi, eight, Ace, seven, and Birdie, one, with her second husband Eric Johnson who used to be an NFL tight end. 

She became an aunt yet again last autumn when her sister Ashlee Simpson and brother-in-law Evan Ross welcomed a son called Ziggy. 

Ashlee and Evan already share a daughter called Jagger, five, and Ashlee also has a son called Bronx, 12, by her first husband Pete Wentz.

In January Jessica posted a heart-melting snap of little Birdie enjoying some quality time with her newborn cousin Ziggy.

Jessica and her little sister Ashlee are Joe Simpson, a minister who was born in Texas, and his ex-wife Tina Ann Drew.

In her hit memoir Open Book Jessica recalled that her father Joe brought a male model she had never met to her wedding to Eric in 2014.

‘I reminded myself that I needed to accept my father for who he was as he worked it out in real-time,’ wrote Jessica of Joe, an ex-pastor.

Just before giving her away during her wedding to her first husband Nick Lachey, Joe asked: ‘Are you sure you want to do this?’

She replied: ‘Dad, I’m walking down this aisle and getting married. You’re giving me away. You have to. I’ll always be your little girl, but you have to do this for me.’

Jessica neglected to obtain a prenuptial agreement, so when she and Nick finally got divorced in 2006 she lost $12 million.

Her parents Tina and Joe split up in 2012 – and he informed Jessica of the separation while she was in the hospital to deliver Maxwell.

Although Jessica ‘resented’ her father around the time of the divorce, which was finalized in 2013, they have patched up their relationship.
