Remember when former Dallas Cowboys QB Tony Romo and singer Jessica Simpson dated years ago? Well, Simpson's new book "Open Book" finally reveals why their 2-year relationship ended back in 2009...

quote:
"[Tony] accused me of seeing John behind his back. I hadn’t cheated on Tony at all, but I could not lie and say I hadn’t even seen him," Simpson said.

Jessica told Tony "nothing happened" ... but Romo didn't buy her story because ... well, John Mayer.

"Tony didn’t believe that for a second. And within that second, he broke up with me right there. Two years, gone with an email."

Simpson says she knew Romo wouldn't blab to the media about the real reason for the split because "it would imply that he wasn't enough for me."

Jessica says eventually "Tony soon realized I was telling the truth. Of course I didn’t cheat on him."

"But our breakup had been so ugly that it shocked me into realizing it had been necessary."

These boots were made for "knocking"...

Romo didn’t say anything to the media bc he’s a good dude & didn’t want the world thinking she’s a dumb whore. So she puts it in her autobiography. Dumb whore.

She cheated on her husband with two different guys around the same time frame. There were rumors of a third affair with Bam. This chic was slinging it all over Hollywood.

She gave him the excuse to finally break up. She was drop dead gorgeous, but we all know the drill... Romo was the “somewhere, some guy is sick of her shite”. 11 years & 100+ lbs later that decision is aging well.

someone needs to let Jessica know I doubt he didn’t tell the media the real reason not because he thought he was inferior to John Meyer but because he’s not a Hollywood bimbo who cares about how often there names in the media.

Are we supposed to remember that Romo and Simpson dated? Are we supposed to care? John Mayer, who? And I'm not even a boomer.

ReauxlTide222•61 months

You don’t remember seeing her at his games? And you don’t know who John Mayer is?

WildTchoupitoulas•61 months

John’s melting faces playing with the Dead and Tony is killing it on TV. Jessica is now a has been.

BilJ•61 months

well she does have a higher net worth than both of them combined, so she's doing OK too I suppose

Bulldogblitz•61 months

she wasn't cheating, that really just depends on what the definition of sex is...

TigerDoug•61 months

Jessica was using Bill Clinton's definition of sex.

Spawn•61 months

I thought it was because his team mates had started comparing her to Flozell Adams.

John Mayer plowed through most of Hollywood. Romo is just one of many boyfriends that he stole the girl from.

Ignignot•61 months

yup, Giada de laurenitis, Jessica Simpson, list goes on

Ignignot•61 months

Romo did the right thing. Jessica hadn't matured yet, and couldn't resist attention from other guys. Even if she didn't sleep with Mayer, she was enjoying the shite out of his attention. That alone is worth breaking up over.
