Jessica Simpson is 'ready' to date again

Jessica Simpson is "ready" to get back into the dating scene.

In January, the I Wanna Love You Forever singer and retired NFL player Eric Johnson announced they had separated after a decade of marriage.

The former couple shares daughters Maxwell, 13, and Birdie, six, and 12-year-old son Ace.

During an appearance on Today with Jenna & Friends on Wednesday, Jessica revealed it has "been almost two years" since she and Eric broke up.

Co-host Jenna Bush Hager asked the popstar whether she was interested in dating again, and while Jessica is "slightly terrified", she is "very into" the idea.

"I'm ready. It's on," she declared.

And when asked about the type of person she's looking for, Jessica insisted they must be "one of a kind".

"I don't have a look or anything like that," the 45-year-old explained. "I just like for somebody to be individually who they are and exude confidence without the ego. It's hard to find, but I feel like it's out there."

Jessica is currently promoting her eighth studio album, Nashville Canyon, Part 1. The second instalment is set to drop in September.

Reflecting on recording the project, the popstar shared that the tone of the project changed as a result of what was going on in her personal life at the time.

"I thought I was going to be doing this inspirational type of record and it ended up leaning more towards, 'How do I get through this moment because my whole life just completely changed while making this record?' and it became something I never would have expected," she noted. "But there's blessings in the pain. You can find beauty in the pain."
