They’ve been plagued with rumors of trouble in paradise for awhile now, and now it’s official: Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo have broken up.

According to an inside source, the “Come on Over” songstress and the Dallas Cowboys stud fell into a volatile cycle of lovers’ spats. "They go from one fight right into another, without a second break. It’s always something with Jessica." Another friend added, “It’s been a long time coming.”

Jessica and Tony, who began dating back in November of 2007, were always under pressure from the media, whether it was for her weight, or his poor performance on the field while she was in the stands.

Earlier this year, Jessica told press, "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."

Both Simpson and Romo are keeping mum about the situation right now, with both sides’ reps refusing to comment.

Enjoying a relaxing evening, Jessica Simpson was spotted arriving at La Esquina restaurant in New York City for dinner last night (June 8).

The “With You” songstress looked to be in high spirits as she arrived at the high-end eatery sporting a cleavage-baring black dress with black sunglasses.

Over the weekend, Miss Simpson performed at the 18th Annual Celebrate Life with Hope Event, singing to over 2000 pediatric cancer survivors.

She told press, “To be able to give back is my sole purpose in life.” And it sounds like Jessica made quite an impression on the attendees.

One guest told press, “She was so nice and so warm.  All the kids were getting a day out and the little ones were looking up at her, it was just really touching.  She kept telling them they were her heroes.”

“At the end, she had a little meet and greet up on the stage.  The kids were just so excited to see her and give her a hug and she was so sweet with them. She was signing T-shirts and the hospital gave her a plaque. She was just really happy to be there.”

Back out for another day of business in the Big Apple, Jessica Simpson was spotted leaving her New York City hotel on Tuesday (June 9).

The country singing cutie looked a bit disheveled as she hopped in and out of her chauffeured ride – smiling for paparazzi snapping up pics at the scene.

Meanwhile, Jessica’s longtime trainer, Mike Alexander, recently chatted with FOX Pop Tarts about his client’s workout regimen, saying, “Jessica really hates squats and jumping-any type of jumping she’s not on board with. But she loves reverse lunges because it really isolates her glutes and her hamstrings.”

Explaining how to get into fine form in short periods of time, Miss Simpson’s trainer explained: “Squats and lunges are great butt exercises because you can use your own body weight and do several varieties of them. It’s the one thing that clients don’t enjoy because it’s not easy when done right, you’re working all the muscles in your legs which is far away from your heart so your heart is pumping like crazy so it elevates your heart rate and takes it out of you but its worth it in the end. Cardio is also really important when working on a short time frame and don’t focus too much on mid-section. Women tend to do this because its showing in a bikini but then neglect other parts which are just as important aesthetically-speaking. If you work your stomach too much you can build up the muscles in your abdominals and it can then appear dissented.”

It’s no secret that her career has taken a few hits as of late, and Jessica Simpson has reportedly turned to partying to cope.

However, the “Come on Over” songstress’ boyfriend Tony Romo is less than impressed with his gal’s behavior as of late, and he’s calling for it to stop.

An inside source told press, “Tony is fed up.  She’s been pressuring him to marry her and have children, but he’s giving her a firm ‘no’ until she cleans up her act.”

The source continued, “Tony won’t even consider moving forward with Jess until she cuts back on partying.” We’ll see if this ultimatum ends up working.

It sounds like Jessica Simpson will be taking her country crooning elsewhere, as her reps have confirmed that she is no longer with the Sony Nashville label.

There were many reports earlier today stating that the 28-year-old singer’s name was clearly missing from Columbia Nashville and Sony Music Nashville Web sites.

The Daisy Duke star also did not attend the Academy of Country Music Awards, even after announcing the nominees earlier this year.

Miss Simpson does have an explanation, though. Her rep says, “She was on load to Sony Nashville for her country album.” Simpson recently brought country into her singing career but her rep says she “is and has always been an Epic artist. She continues to be on Epic’s label.”

Simpson’s country debut, “Do You Know,” cam out at No. 1 on the Billboard country charts, yet only sold 172,876 copies as of February.

The blonde bombshell has also been struggling this year, such as opening for Rascal Flatts, where she messed up many lines as well as forgetting some and receiving weight criticism.

But Jessica still knows where her roots are from. “I am a country girl. I grew up in Texas, and country music was what I listened to.”

The star also says that Martina McBride, Shania Twain and Faith Hill give her inspiration: “I think there is a strength in female country artists.”

t’s a done dada for Jessica Simpson’s recording career.

After months of forgotten lyrics, weight gain scandals, and disappointing live performances, Jessica Simpson, the once promising pop tart turned country-western trainwreck, has reportedly been axed from her contract with Columbia Records.

According to our pals at NashvilleGab.com, the singer’s name and information no longer appears on either the Columbia Nashville or Sony Music Nashville websites. Even Jessica artist page, featuring her bio and her music, is gone from the site.

And late Wednesday morning, OK! Magazine obtained the apparent confirmation the music world has been waiting for.

…A telephone operator told us that Jessica Simpson has now “come off the label.”

Thoughts on this?

Not only does she perform for her fans, she looks out for them as well. And at a concert in Phoenix, AZ last night, the lovely  Jessica Simpson offered her advice to the female members of her audience.

With the topic of relationship abuse popping up quite a bit these days, the 28-year-old singer told the crowd, “No matter what you go through in life, no matter what abuse you go through, take your heart and run so far away.”

Right after offering that piece of advice, Simpson sang the song “Remember That,” which features the lyrics: “It doesn’t matter how he hurts you/With his hands or with his words/You don’t deserve it.”

Although Simpson has never named names, she admitted last year that she had been in an abusive relationship.

Who still can’t carry a tune? Jessica Simpson. But at least she seemed in much better spirits than during her meltdown in Michigan on Thursday night.

Despite lingering scrutiny over Jessica’s weight, the alleged country star busted out her daisy dukes – which she famously flaunted in 2005 while promoting The Dukes of Hazzard – for her concert at The Kohl Center in Madison, Wisconsin, on Friday:Jessica had an off night,” her rep said of the Grand Rapids meltdown, but she bounced back strong. “She’s a perfectionist and wanted to start some songs over.”

“She always wants to give the best performance for her fans.”

Call her curvy or fat, in the photos below, our Caption Contest subject looks pretty darn good. Looks, not sounds. Click to enlarge pics of her performing in Wisconsin:
