Jessica Simpson's mother has found love again — but it's with a married man!
According to a new report from The National ENQUIRER, Tina Simpson has been seeing landscaper Jon Goldstein and even brought him to her daughter's lavish wedding to Eric Johnson on July 5.
The problem, according to court documents obtained by the ENQUIRER, is that Goldstein was still married to his estranged wife at the time and even pleaded with the court to rush his divorce because of a "high-profile event I need to attend as an unmarried man."
COURT DOCUMENTS: Tina Simpson's Married Boyfriend Pleaded To Rush His Divorce
"The last thing Tina wanted was to have guests at Jess' wedding whispering that she showed up with a guy who was married!" a Simpson family insider told the magazine.
"It was bad enough that Tina's ex-hubby brought his 21-year-old male 'client' as his guest, so Tina pushed Jon to take care of matters before Jess' big day on July 5."

In the court documents filed on June 20, Goldstein, 51, claimed his wife agreed to the split but that they would settle custody and finance issues later if the marriage would just be legally dissolved.
"I have a personal event taking place the first of July," Goldstein declared, begging to push up the judge's July 7 hearing.
"It is a high-profile event, and I need to attend as an unmarried man."
But a source tells the ENQUIRER his request was denied and he attended the wedding with Tina, 54, as a married man.
"The judge denied Jon's request. Neither Tina nor Jess was happy about that," the source said.
"Jon was still legally married at the time of Jess' wedding. They were hoping that little detail would remain hidden."
And after all that, Goldstein's divorce was finalized just days after Jessica's nuptials, on July 9.
