Jessica Simpson Selling Shabby Chic Beverly Hills Pad for $8M

The home Simpson is selling. (Limeorchardrd.com/Sothebys) Jessica Simpson is having a whirlwind year. She gave birth to her first child last May and – what do you know! – discovered she was pregnant again before the year was over. Now, with baby number two on the way and a wedding to fiancĂ© Eric Johnson in the works, the 32-year-old is adding another change to the mix: She's selling her Beverly Hills home for $7.995 million, according to real estate website Redfin . Jamie McCarthy/Getty Images You might say the place started out as Simpson's bachelorette pad. She bought the house for $5.275 million back in December 2005, incidentally on the same day she officially filed for divorce from Lachey, a month after the couple announced their separation. The 5,500-square-foot home was custom-built in 1991 and includes five bedrooms, five and a half bathrooms, a gourmet kitchen, and a family room that opens to "park-like grounds" and a pool. Additionally, there's an office, a gym, and master suite with French doors that lead to a deck overlooking the yard which also boasts a walled and gated stone courtyard, which then leads to a koi pond. Got all that? According to Redfin, the place has quite a celebrity pedigree. Ellen DeGeneres bought it in 2001 and sold it in 2003 to Hollywood manager Rick Yorn. As for where Simpson and her expanding family are moving, no word on that yet. But if she keeps up at the rate she's going, they better buy a place with a lot of bedrooms.
