“Jess was too heartbroken to have a big bash,” reveals a pal of the songbird. “She knows that she and Tony are broken up for good.”
There’s also this from the story:
It was Romo who called it quits, sources reveal. Although the couple looked happy just two weeks ago while attending a golf tournament in Bethesda, Md., the football stud was starting to get itchy about his freedom.
In fact, the night Romo was meant to be playing the perfect Ken, he was partying with a posse of guy friends at Hollywood hot spot MyHouse – and women were constantly stopping by his table. Says one clubgoer, “Tony was hanging out until 2 a.m. getting his flirt on. He was in great spirits and seemed very single.”
On Saturday, the player was again caught chatting up a bevy of ladies, this time poolside at the Roosevelt Hotel, also in L.A.
While Romo may already be moving on, the split is harder for Simpson.
“Jessica was ready to settle down, and Tony was not,” says a second source. “He travels a lot for his games, and having a full-time girlfriend is a big commitment.”
Agrees the first pal, “They were heading in different directions.” Reps for both Romo and Simpson declined to comment.
I still don’t buy the fact that Simpson was some major distraction for Romo. But, as Jean-Jacques Taylor wrote on Tuesday, all of the excuses — either real or imagined — are out of the way for Romo. We’ll see how he reponds in 2009. I’m betting on a good year from him.
