Joe Simpson’s Double Duty

When Jessica Simpson was 12, her father Joe gave her what he called a promise ring, vowing to be the man in her life until she got married. “I was serious about saying to Jessica, ‘You know what? I am gonna be the dad that tells you how beautiful you are everyday, and I’m gonna be the dad that says even when you make a mistake you’re still special, and I am gonna do that until the day you find a man who will do it and take my place so that’s what the ring was about,” Joe told ‘Access Hollywood’ co-host Billy Bush.
