“Jessica and Eric say couples counseling has really saved their marriage and taught them invaluable life lessons," the source told Life & Style. "Even when times are tough, they know to still make each other a priority — which is why Eric insisted on [a] Valentine’s Day dinner."

"Her life has totally changed for the better in so many ways and not just physically," the insider continued. "They used to bicker a lot when she drank. Now they’ve learned to communicate better. Jessica is in touch with her feelings and not hiding behind booze anymore."

They noted how the former NFL player and the “I Wanna Love You Forever” singer "cuddle a lot more as opposed to sitting on opposite ends of the couch with a wine glass or tumbler of liquor."

Additionally, Simpson has expressed how much happier she’s been since she started recording new music in Nashville.

"Being in Nashville, even my kids are like, 'You laugh the whole time. You're so happy,'" she shared. "It's because I'm not on guard. I'm with a lot of like-minded people. It's not about the celebrities — it's really about the music and the heart and the conversation."
