Jessica SimpsonJessica Simpson has revealed an abusive relationship inspired a song on her new country album ‘Do You Know’,

The song ‘Remember That’ includes the lyric “With his hands or with his words/you don’t deserve it” and Jessica told the forthcoming issue of Elle magazine: “I know that I sing it with experience.”

“I don’t want to talk about it, but I have definitely experienced abuse in a way that I would tell people to take their heart and run.”

She added though that she’s had very positive experiences in relationships too and her time with John Mayer last year helped shape her as a person: “John believed in the Jessica Simpson that’s within. He cherished our love. He helped make me the woman I am today.

“John is going to be an amazing man for someone, but I know that I was supposed to be with someone else.”
