Finding comfort in food after being single again, Jessica Simpson gained 10 lbs.
Jessica Simpson is comfort eating to cope with being single. The 'Dukes of Hazzard' actress, who split from US musician
John Mayer in the summer, is said to be feeling lonely and has started gorging on French fries to cheer herself up.
A source said: "Jessica jokes about wanting a boyfriend, but it isn't funny. It hurts her to see her exes moving forward. She keeps getting crushes on the kind of guys who will let her down. That triggers her cravings. She usually gives in to them at bedtime. When she is at a hotel, she will often order a plate of French fries as a late-night snack. She knows it isn't healthy, but she doesn't have a lot of willpower
right now."
Jessica has reportedly gained 10lbs since September and has turned to close friend Mike Alexander to help get her back into shape. The source added to the National Enquirer magazine: "Jessica recently binged on buffalo wings and cupcakes and gained some weight. She feels horrible. She is determined to work those pounds off - and she wants Mike to help her do it. He literally got her butt into shape for 'Dukes of Hazzard'."
"He will give Jessica the disciplined 'boot camp' workout she needs - lots of cardio, lots of lunges and weights. I wouldn't be surprised if she ended up in a romance with Mike. He has always been there for her. Jessica leaned on him when her marriage to
Nick Lachey fell apart. She feels safe when Mike is around."
