Nick Lachey, Vanessa Lachey Kick Couple Off The Ultimatum in Shocking Season 4 MomentNick Lachey wasn’t blind to the ups and downs of marriage when he proposed to Vanessa Lachey.
In fact, the Love Is Blind host revealed one positive of his 2002 marriage to Jessica Simpson was that it taught him what he wants in a partner.
And while that romance ended in them filing for divorce in 2005, Nick still feels it gave him a “leg up” in his relationship with Vanessa, as he explained to contestant Erika Ellis on the season 11 premiere Oct. 14.
“Well, as some of you may know,” Nick replied, “I was previously married before I met my incredible wife.”
“I would make the very unique argument that it gives you a leg up,” he continued. “Because you know from that experience what it is you truly want.”
