Sometimes, when B-list or C-list celebrities go through divorces, we don’t really cover it because there’s not enough mess or interest. Sometimes a divorce is just an everyday tragedy of two people falling out of love and there’s nothing scandalous there. But, sometimes it takes a few years for the messy drama to come out. So it is with Josh Lucas. In his heyday, I would consider Josh to be the poor man’s Matthew McConaughey. He had some movies and halfway memorable roles, but I haven’t seen him in much of anything for years. He married Jessica Ciencin Henriquez in 2012 and she filed for divorce in January 2014, soon after she gave birth to their only child together, son Noah. After that divorce filing, they reconciled, split up again, reconciled again, and on and on. They’re apparently off-again right now and Jessica is spilling some messy TEA.
Josh Lucas’s ex-wife, writer Jessica Ciencin Henriquez, has accused the actor of “cheating” while she says they were recently reconciled — though a source close to the actor disputes they were back together. The pair tied the knot in March 2012 and share one son, Noah Rev, 7. The two have long been off-and-on since they originally split in January 2014 when the writer filed for divorce.
Ciencin Henriquez tweeted about Lucas, 48, on Friday, issuing a scathing message with the caption, “Exes are exes for a reason.”
“Having a child with someone makes you want to forgive them more than you normally would, it makes you believe they are better than they are. But it takes a really sh-t human to cheat on their partner (correction: now ex partner) in the middle of a pandemic. Thank you for reminding me why I left you in the first place. I deserve better than this. Our son deserves better than this. And yes, I am airing this publicly because there are a lot of women accepting much less than they deserve because there are kids in the picture. You’re not stupid for hoping, for believing that people can change. I see you.”
A source close to the actor maintains the two remained exes and had not resumed a romantic relationship, saying “They haven’t been together in a long time. They are co-parents and have been doing so since their split in 2014.” The source adds, “They’re in California now but live separately. They weren’t trying to reconcile.”
“But it takes a really sh-t human to cheat on their partner (correction: now ex partner) in the middle of a pandemic…” Well. For the record, I tend to believe that they were on-and-off so many times that neither of them really knew for sure the state of their current relationship. But for her to call him out like that, well… that’s certainly interesting. And Josh’s people – excuse me, “sources” – are now like “I don’t know her, wasn’t trying to reconcile with her.” Josh, girl, you already burned that bridge sweetie.

She is a complete idiot.
Women please NEVER think you are not worthly of being treated with respect at ANYTIME.
Sadly, it took me years to learn that lesson. You gotta remember that not all of us grew up with loving, involved parents that can be an example of healthy relationships. In fact, out of my parents, my 5 aunts & uncles, & 10 older cousins, only one of them is still married today. All of the rest of the marriages in my childhood/adolescence divorced.
Be kind to “idiot” women in bad relationships. Sometimes they truly don’t know any better.
The irony.
Umm. Aren’t you disrespecting her right now by calling her “a complete idiot”?
This is some Jerry Springer nonsense. They have a child. Does everyone need to know their business?
My guess is she has some issues herself. He is entirely to blame for his own behavior and cheating but she seems very martyrish with that bit about wanting to believe he could change and then blasting it on social media. Control issues and vindictiveness.
They have been divorced for many years, how on earth is he cheating on her?
I don’t know her, and this blabbing is childish.
This sounds like a very unstable relationship. I feel for their child. It sounds like the best thing they could do is permanently end any romantic partner relationship between them, and work out how to be good co-parents – and NOT put stuff like this out publicly.
I’ll bet that she hooked up with him and assumed more and was pissed when he didn’t want it. Once she made it public and dragged her kid into it, she lost my respect. She has crazy eyes too.
Am I supposed to feel bad for her?
These two have been in and off by her own account for yeaaaars and honey, while the pandemic has seemed endless, it’s been two months so nah, you probably weren’t terribly on or committed long enough for this you be a betrayal.
Sounds more like someone trying to up the stakes on a game.
Exes are exes for a reason, she says…
They have been broke up for years, seems like they might have been intimate since but that doesn’t mean they were back together. Seems like there was some miscommunications. I don’t believe about sharing you’re private life to the masses especially when you have kid(S). She seems really annoying. And he seems like a douche
I don’t know the full story, but I have never been impressed by her. She’s very thirsty and has been very public about their ups and downs, often in an incredibly vindictive manner. The last essay of hers I read was that they had reconciled through living in separate apartments in the same building. I guess that went the way of the dodo.
This idiot would take him back in a heartbeat, even at this point. Either make peace with his cheating and shut up about it, or stay away from him and MOVE ON. Either way, there’s a kid involved so keep it off the www.
@ Barb : Like the saying goes, “Fooled me once, shame on you. Fooled me twice, shame on me”. I know personally that sometimes it’s hard to step away from the drama because you want so desperately to be RIGHT. But sometimes it’s better just to view a failed relationship as “an unfortunate episode” in your life and move on. And for god’s sake, stop TALKING about it – haven’t your friends suffered enough?
I don’t like him. He gives me skeevy vibes.
He was hot for a moment with Sweet Home Alabama. But he made some blunder movies after that and lost all career traction. On top of his association with Epstein and Maxwell. I feel sorry for her he’s probably a narcissist and love bombs to get her back. And mind fucks her to push her away cheating. Lots and lots of empty and broken promises.
Get a good therapist, take your kid, keep it civil for his sake and move on. Blasting him on social media just perpetuates the games narcissists play. He will want revenge.
