Jessica Simpson opens up about addiction and abuse in new memoir.
In the tell-all, which hits bookstores Feb. 4, Simpson shares her truth like never before, writes about childhood sexual abuse, and the role it played in putting her on the path to addiction. And in her interview with the magazine, she reveals why she wrote the book.
“I’m a horrible liar,” she said, explaining that she’d passed up an earlier opportunity to pen a motivational guide to “living your best life,” because she was actually at “rock-bottom” due to dependency on alcohol and pills.And getting honest with herself — along with rehab, therapy and the support of“Quitting was the easy part,” she continued. “I was mad at that bottle. At how it allowed me to stay complacent and a bit numb.
But stripping back the secrecy and confronting her life head-on for her book proved to be a “hard, deep emotional journey.”“With this book, I want the freedom to say, ‘Well, there are no more secrets,’” she said. “Honesty is hard. But it’s the most rewarding thing we have. And getting to the other side of fear is beautiful.”
