Jessica Simpson slips back into denim shorts 20 years on from Dukes of Hazzard
Jessica Simpson took to her social media page to share a snap of herself rocking a pair of daisy dukes Jessica Simpson looked out of this world as she slipped back into denim shorts two decades after Dukes of Hazzard. The 2005 action comedy movie is loosely based on the 80s series of the same name, with the likes of Johnny Knoxville, Seann William Scott, Willie Nelson and Jessica in starring roles. In the movie, Jessica rocked daisy dukes and red heels. She recently took to her Instagram page to recreate her iconic 00s look. Jessica posed in light blue daisy dukes and a low-cut cheetah print halter neck top. She added a chunky belt, matching bracelets and layered a few statement necklaces. She captioned the post: "Cut denim blues and red shoes are this Summers go to's." Fans rushed to the comment section to compare her look to the one she rocked in Dukes of Hazzard. "So beautiful and gorgeous especially wearing them in the dukes of hazzard movie," one user said and another posted: "You're absolutely beautiful hun." One follower commented: "One of my favourite movies of all time." Jessica previously revealed she owns a "ridiculous number" of shorts in her wardrobe, including the ones from The Dukes of Hazzard. However, she said her outfits weren't as glamorous as Diana Ross' clothes. Diana is her sister Ashlee's mother-in-law. She said: "Her archive is filled with sequins that make you salivate, and mine is filled with Juicy suits and Daisy Dukes.' Earlier this year, it was revealed that Jessica and her husband Eric Johnson had split up. The singer began dating the former NFL player in January 2010, and they announced their engagement in November of that year before tying the knot on July 5, 2014. They share daughter Maxwell, son Ace and daughter Birdie, five. An insider spoke out at the time and claimed that protecting her sobriety was one of the main reasons Jessica had to call it quits on her relationship, with the pop star having been sober since October 2017. A source shared that while Jessica had 'grown' since marrying Eric, her husband hadn't developed alongside her. 'Eric likes to take the credit for Jessica getting sober and turning her life around, and while he was supportive of her and her journey, she did this herself. He didn't babysit her,' they claimed. The insider added that Jessica didn't want it to come to divorce, Eric had been 'extremely absent' for a couple of years, and with the 'spark gone, staying together for the kids no longer made sense'. The insider claimed the couple tried a number of avenues to get their marriage back on track, including counselling, spiritual healing, tantric exercises, but 'it didn't work'. Alongside worrying for the relationship, fears for Jessica's own health rose.
