According to sources, Jessica and Eric have been living mostly separate lives for some time now. The couple first met in 2010 through mutual friends and got engaged after six months of dating. They married in July 2014 in a beautiful ceremony in Montecito, California, with their two eldest children, Maxwell and Ace, playing special roles as the flower girl and ring bearer.

Jessica and Eric’s family includes their three children: Maxwell “Maxi” Drew, 12, Ace Knute, 11, and Birdie Mae, 5. The pair welcomed Maxwell in May 2012, followed by Ace in June 2013. Their youngest, Birdie, was born in 2018, completing their family.

The couple’s love story started with a whirlwind romance that turned into a decade-long marriage. However, despite their efforts, it seems they have reached a point where living separately is the best path forward. As they focus on co-parenting and ensuring their children’s happiness, fans continue to send them love and support during this difficult time.
