Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo out in NY in early March, thanks to WENN
Just when you were hoping that the only reason Tony Romo showed up at Ashlee Simpson’s wedding was due to extensive cajoling or a hefting bribe from Joe Simpson, it looks like he’s willing to hang out with Jessica when there’s not a lot of cash and public interest at stake. The Dallas Cowboys quarterback was spotted having dinner with his maybe-estranged girlfriend, Jessica Simpson, on Saturday.

After watching Papa Joe Simpson marry little sister Ashlee to bassist Pete Wentz, Tony headed back to Texas for the Colonial golf tourney while Jessica went to Cabo San Lucas with her parents.

But abstinence makes the heart grow fonder.

Saturday night, Tony and Jessica shared a corner booth for two at N9NE Steakhouse in downtown Dallas’ Victory Park. The couple said hello to Cowboys receiver-kick returner Isaiah Stanback, who was dining at N9NE with his parents.

Good for them I guess. Jessica starred in a television show about her doomed marriage, she called Romo her “future husband” in a recent interview, and she admits that she loves seeing pictures of herself in the tabloids. It’s not like she’s going to wise up enough to realize that she needs to keep her relationship under wraps if she wants to preserve it. Maybe her dad is the one who leaked the news of their dinner to the Dallas Morning News. It would be very much in character for him to make sure it’s known that her daughter isn’t the sad sap the press is making her out to be.

As for the story reported by the National Enquirer that Jessica cheated on Tony with Jared Leto and Zach Braff, Leto’s rep has said that “There is no truth whatsoever to the article.” The National Enquirer is not Star, and I bet they had at least one source. That doesn’t mean that I think it’s true, just that I wouldn’t put it past her.
