A source told Life and Style that the split was inevitable. “For Jessica, he is not what she needs. It’s just not working and hasn’t been for a while. She has the best kids, and they are healthy, and love is there.”
Despite the end of her marriage, Jessica is not dwelling on the past. “She isn’t going to worry about [what he is doing] and is doing her thing too. She has her own mind, money, and family support for whatever happens,” the confidant added.
Fans have been speculating about Jessica’s next move, especially regarding her music career. The singer, who skyrocketed to fame in the early 2000s with hits like I Wanna Love You Forever and With You, has been dropping hints about her return to the studio.
