Jessica distances herself from her dad
When Jessica Simpson consulted her father Joe about having children with hubby Nick Lachey, that was the last straw for the 98 Degrees singer, and now Jessica is taking steps to distance herself professionally from her meddling pop.
“Both Nick and Jessica want a family, but Joe’s been dead set against it at ths stage of their careers,” a friend told Star magazine.
“He told Jessica, ‘You’ve got plenty of time before you start tying yourself down.”
Nick was outraged that Joe was involved in the discussion of when they should have children, - and he told Jessica so.
The insider added, “Nick and Jessica are really in love and both would do anything to make the marriage work. All they need now is for Joe Simpson to let them have their own lives and their own happiness.”
Simpson now is looking for someone to handle management of her film career, while Joe will continue to handle her singing duties. Source
