The mother-of-two got things off to a decidedly awkward start by immediately declaring that she was not pregnant – contrary to the previous times she had appeared on Ellen’s show.

“Are you sure that you’re not pregnant?” Ellen asked. “I heard that you were.”

“We had an IUD,” Jessica revealed in reply, adding, “Nothing’s gonna get in that uterus!”

From there, the interview only continued to get more bizarre, with Jessica spending plenty of time talking about a recent mermaid-themed birthday party for her little ones (complete with “manhandlers” who had to carry the mermaids to and from the bathroom in their tails).

The singer and fashion designer also seemed to stumble on the precise amount of time she had been with her husband Eric Johnson – which she eventually seemed to confirm as seven years.

“That’s a long time,” she marvelled. “I don’t know if I’ve ever had a seven-year relationship, other than with a woman,” she continued, before hastily clarifying her comments as Ellen raised an eyebrow.

“No, not that! No – I mean, my besties that understand me.”
