The “Dukes of Hazzard” star opened up about her life and her dependency on alcohol, viaPeople.
Simpson detailed Halloween 2017 as the day she realized that she needed help.
The following day, her friends held an intervention for her.
Since that time, the singer has been sober.
However, it wasn’t an easy road.
Simpson admitted that it was during her volatile romance with Mayer that her addiction began.
Simpson confessed that she felt inferior to Mayer.
“My anxiety would spike, and I would pour another drink,” she said in her book.
“It was the start of me relying on alcohol to mask my nerves.”
Simpson admitted Mayer’s infatuation was something she craved.
However, she always worried about their future.
“I felt the full intensity of his obsession with me.
And it was a drug to me.
He studied every inch of my body, every detail of my face.
However, Simpson didn’t approve of his telling interview, later calling it “disrespectful,” perGlamour.
“But that’s on him,” she said.
Simpson and Mayer finally called it quits for good in 2007.
Mayer then datedstars like Jennifer Aniston, Taylor Swift, and Katy Perry.
Simpson went on to marry Eric Johnson.
And that’s important.”
