Simpson and Johnson have called time on their 10-year marriage – here’s what we know about his ex-wife, Keri D’Angelo Cohen, who’s been seen hanging out with The Miz, Carl Radke and Barbie Blank Coba

Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson appear to be calling it quits after 10 years of marriage.

“Eric and I have been living separately navigating a painful situation in our marriage,” Simpson said in a statement to People magazine. “Our children come first, and we are focusing on what is best for them. We are grateful for all of the love and support that has been coming our way, and appreciate privacy right now as we work through this as a family.”

The news comes after months of speculation around the status of their marriage.

While we know that Simpson was married to Nick Lachey before Johnson, less is known about Johnson’s previous relationships. Here’s what we know about his first wife.

Eric Johnson’s first wife was Keri D’Angelo

Before tying the knot with Simpson in 2014, former NFL player Johnson was married to Keri D’Angelo (now Keri D’Angelo Cohen). Johnson and D’Angelo Cohen said their vows in 2005 but split in 2009 before finalising their divorce a year later, per the New York Post.

In 2011, Star magazine alleged that Johnson was still intimate with his estranged wife when he started seeing Simpson. “He’s a two-timing cheat! He was still having sex with Keri after he started seeing Jessica,” a friend of D’Angelo Cohen’s reportedly told the tabloid. “[Simpson] needs to think twice before marrying him. He’s already cheated on her once – he’ll most likely do it again.” However, Simpson’s reps denied this at the time.

She remarried
