'We're doing it very backwards, I know... I'll just keep my legs crossed, I guess, this time.'
The 32-year-old, who is pregnant with her second child and confessed it was not planned, displayed her blossoming figure in a low-cut leopard print clingy dress, which displayed plenty of her ample cleavage and clung to her tiny baby bump.
'Apparently it was a part of God's plan for my life,' she laughed as she chatted about her new pregnancy. 'I was extremely shocked because I was going through a lot of hormonal changes, trying to get back to the old, vibrant Jessica. You know, it was kind of like a one-night stand. And it happened, all over again!'
The glowing star is watching what she eats this time around, after gaining what she said was 'a lot more than doctors would recommend.'

It was recently revealed that Jessica is already plotting her return to the small screen in a new sitcom pilot for NBC, which will be inspired by her life, and the blonde was happy to divulge about it.
When asked if it was about 'a girl who keeps getting pregnant', Jessica replied: 'Yes, and how that girl deals with that and everything else. I will be playing myself, which is pretty easy.'
She went on: 'We don't have a name yet, we're just now in the process of casting everyone, doing the pilot. I will be playing myself but we'll have actors playing Eric and my dad. That'll be funny.'
According to Deadline, the engaged star is excited to produce and star in the single-camera, half-hour series.

'I often find myself thinking that no one could ever make up the things that actually happen in my life — so between the real-life elements and a great team of writers, I think we’ll have people laughing!' Simpson said.
Executive producers for the pilot are already dubbing Jessica a 'modern day Lucy' - including Nick Bakay, Ben Silverman, Jimmy Fox, and Jessica’s father/manager Joe Simpson.
Silverman explained: 'From running a fashion empire to wrangling her public image as a new mom, we see Jessica’s character approach a variety of "everyday" circumstances that will get audiences laughing out loud.'
As many will know, this isn't the first time Jessica has dabbled in reality.

The Fashion Star mentor admitted she feels 'awful' when her work limits the amount of time she can spend with her daughter.
'Motherhood is the best thing I've ever experienced - and the most challenging,' Simpson told People magazine.
'On some of the days of Fashion Star, I'm awake before Maxwell is awake, and I'm not home until she's already back to sleep. That's only happened about four times, but it makes the day awful.'
She continued, 'I definitely need to see my baby. I get really sad if I don't get to see her. And then when Maxwell sees me, she just stares at me and touches my face. I can tell she missed me. That breaks my heart.'
