“He was undressing me with his eyes”: Jessica Simpson Hints Mark Wahlberg Had an Affair With Her While His Wife Was Pregnant Despite Actor Claiming He’s Steered Clear of Dark Side of Fame
Jessica Simpson, 42, recently revealed that she discovered romance with another man after her breakup with her former boyfriend for a brief Hollywood affair and that it was truly her teenage fantasy. In a brief excerpt for Amazon Original Stories titled Movie Star: They Always Say They’re Single, the singer and actress addressed her dating experience. Considering the fact that the story does not name the movie star, some fans have lured Me Time actor Mark Wahlberg into the secret love affair.
Jessica Simpson Reveals Her Secret Romance With a Famous Hollywood Star
Simpson originally mentioned seeing the anonymous celebrity at the 2001 MTV VMAs, when she and ex-husband Nick Lachey were on a break.
“This megastar, who I thought was so hot growing up, eyeballed me up and down,” Simpson shared. “Oh, this is how it feels to get hit on. Because, aside from my ex-boyfriend, no male had ever been so forthright about looking at me provocatively. At least, that’s how I wanted people to look at me. He leaned forward and put his hand on my hip so I could hear him better.”
She claims she wasn’t ready to continue flirting with the mystery star and left the after-party, only to run into him later at a gym in Los Angeles. She allegedly invited him to appear in one of her forthcoming music videos. “I said to this man who made millions and millions of dollars per film, ‘You could be my leading man,'” she wrote. That year, Mark Wahlberg attended the Golden Globes with his now-wife, Rhea Durham, who was pregnant at the time. After attempting to flee their first encounter, she ran into him again at a gym in Los Angeles and invited him to appear in one of her music videos.
