Motherhood Helped Jessica Simpson Get Sober

Becoming a mother made Jessica Simpson realise it was time to get sober.

The star has three children, Ace Knute, six, Maxwell Drew, seven, and Birdie Mae, 11 months, with her husband Eric Johnson.

After spiralling with alcohol, Jessica decided to stop drinking as she was missing out on moments with her kids.

Asked what prompted the change in her habits when appearing on 'The Kelly Clarkson Show', she said: "Being a mother ... my kids, at the time, were five and four ... I was at a place where I was literally spiralling with the alcohol and I was missing out on moments with my children, and then they were seeing me and they were very confused. I just wanted to be present and have clarity and be a good role model for my children. Because I always wanted to be a good role model for the world, so why in the world would I be stuck in this cycle of having to wake up and have a drink before going to one of their school assemblies?"

Jessica believes she has gained a lot more "clarity" in life since turning things around for the sake of her brood.
