While Jessica Simpson has generally enjoyed a squeaky-clean image, she admits in a new memoir that her real life was anything but.
The actress and mother of three, 39, tells People she’d been approached to write a “living your best life” type of book, but said she couldn’t bring herself to do it.
“I’m a horrible liar,” Simpson said.
Instead, her new memoir, “Open Book,” details for the first time that she’d been sexually abused by the daughter of a family friend when she was just 6 years old.
