Jessica Simpson Says Her Kids "Love" Watching 'Newlyweds'

As much as Jessica Simpson probably wishes she could officially put Newlyweds the early 2000s reality show that documented her first few years of marriage to ex-husband Nick Lachey behind her, her kids aren't letting her live it down.

As much as Jessica Simpson probably wishes she could officially put Newlyweds — the early 2000s reality show that documented her first few years of marriage to ex-husband Nick Lachey — behind her, her kids aren't letting her live it down. 

In a new interview with Entertainment Tonight, the singer-slash-actress revealed that her three children — Maxwell, 11, Ace, 10, and 4-year-old Birdie whom she shares with her current husband Eric Johnson — have recently started to watch Newlyweds, and love to tease their mom for it. "My kids love looking up the YouTube clips of Newlyweds or of anything that I've done. [They'll search,] 'Jessica Simpson embarrassing moments.' I'm like, 'Really guys?'" she explained. "They love to do that."

Simpson continued, "We've gone on a YouTube Newlyweds binger and they really just love to see my parents super young and married and they love to see Ashlee," adding: "They definitely laugh at me. They just want to make fun of me, I think."

Lately, Newlyweds has undergone a resurgence in popularity with kids on TikTok, who are calling out Lachey's misogynistic behavior. Back when the show aired, Simpson was portrayed as a ditzy blonde housewife while Lachey was praised for being a model husband, but now the tables have turned. When this is brought to her attention during an interview with Bustle back in July, Simpson, according to the outlet, offered a "better-late-than-never shrug." She added, "It’s amazing what publicity can do.”
