Jessica Simpson's 30th birthday tomorrow is shaping up to be a much more joyous affair than last year's.

The day before she turned 29, ex-boyfriend Tony Romo dumped her, causing her to cancel her Barbie-themed bash.

But this year, it seems Jessica has found new amore with former pro-footballer Eric Johnson, who she's currently cozying up to on the Italian island of Capri.

This isn't the first trip they've taken together, either...

The new twosome were also spotted at the Ponta Vedra Inn in Florida last weekend, before they returned to L.A. together.

One small issue: Johnson is still technically married. He filed for divorce from his ex-wife in January, but that hasn't been finalized yet.

Either way, we're glad to see Jessica having a better birthday!
