Model & Celeb Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo: Mutual Vanity Support

Though they’ve both endured more than their fair share of criticism throughout their relationship, Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo have made it through the last year-and-a-half together with support from each other.

The Dallas Cowboys stud told press, “We’re very similar in that we both appreciate the hometown feel to a lot of things, and live our life like that,” adding, “She comes to a ton of games. She’s a supportive girlfriend.”

Tony also noted that they enjoy spending their downtime together as well, though some Cowboys fans saw his time with Jess as a mistake. “A lot of people head to Vegas, go back to their hometowns, colleges, and stuff. I was just like, ‘Let’s rent a house and sit around and watch football.’ It seemed like a good decision. But when you’re in the public eye, things can be perceived differently.”

The “Come on Over” songstress concurred, “That’s how the story goes. Can’t help it. But we don’t let it affect our relationship. If we did, we wouldn’t be together, because it happened at the very beginning. Dating the Cowboys quarterback comes with hype, the fans, the bloggers, but I’ve never dated a guy that was more simple. I’m always there for him after a game, and he knows he has me to come home to.”
