In 2006, Simpson began a relationship with Fall Out Boy member Pete Wentz, which gained much media attention. She announced her separation from Wentz in 2011, citing irreconcilable differences. Simpson announced a fourth studio album that same year, though it failed to have success. She eventually scrapped the album and focused on her child. She began dating actor Evan Ross in 2013, with the couple marrying on August 30, 2014. They have a daughter together, Jagger Snow, born on July 30, 2015. In September of 2018, the couple released their first single as a duo called \”I Do\”, the song debuted at number six on the Billboard Pop Digital Song Sales chart and at number 16 on the Digital Song sales chart.
