Jessica Simpson hit back at a troll who accused her of getting off the wagon!
On Monday, the reality star took to her Instagram to share a black-and-white photo of her 11-year-old son Ace. She used the caption to gush about her child — and there was really nothing to indicate that her sobriety was in any trouble. But a worried fan took to her comment section to accuse her of such anyway, writing:
“STOP DRINKING!”
Ironically, the user’s handle included the phrase “nunyabusiness” — but they clearly can’t take their own advice. LOLz!!

The 44-year-old saw the upsetting comment and quickly clapped back, responding:
“I haven’t wanted or touched alcohol since October 2017 and it has been the best decision I’ve made for myself and for my family. Thank. You for your concern, but you have me very misunderstood. Sending love your way.”
A very classy response to what must’ve been a hurtful claim amid her sobriety! The user also replied, and acted as if they totally hadn’t crossed a boundary, writing:
“I’m so happy to hear that!! Sorry for my misunderstanding. Sending love to you as well”

As Perezcious readers know, the Irresistible singer has been honest about her addiction to drinking and pills and has been keeping it real amid her sobriety journey. Last year, she marked six years of sobriety by sharing an “unrecognizable” photo of herself which was taken as she hit rock bottom, she reflected:
“I had so much self discovery to unlock and explore. I knew in this very moment I would allow myself to take back my light, show victory over my internal battle of self respect, and brave this world with piercing clarity.”
She added:
“Personally, to do this I needed to stop drinking alcohol because it kept my mind and heart circling in the same direction and quite honestly I was exhausted. I wanted to feel the pain so I could carry it like a badge of honor. I wanted to live as a leader does and break cycles to advance forward- never looking back with regret and remorse over any choice I have made and would make for the rest of my time here within this beautiful world.”
And now it’s been close to seven years! She should be SO proud! Also, no wonder the fashion designer was so quick to shut down rumors claiming otherwise — she’s worked hard for this new life and doesn’t need a bunch of trolls trying to tear it all down over baseless allegations!
Reactions, Perezcious readers?? Sound OFF (below)!
