Jessica Simpson, girlfriend and partner in tabloids of Cowboys’ quarterback Tony Romo gave the 28-year-old a speedboat last month for his birthday, the National Enquirer reports.
The gift was presented to the two-time Pro Bowler at a party at the couple’s house in Dallas.
A source close to the two said that Romo was “delighted” with the custom-made, $100,000 gift. And why wouldn’t he be?
The source added that Simpson had known Romo was interested in purchasing a boat for some time, and that she hopes to be walking down the aisle with her favorite Cowboy this time next year.

"(She's) hoping that her birthday gift will lead to marriage, and by this time next year she'll be walking down the aisle with him."
Cowboys Nation isn’t much worried about this, presumably, as he prepares for his third full season as the Cowboys starter.
Before any storybook marriage will take place, next summer or beyond, it’s likely that Romo is worrying about another type of ring; the type that goes on his right hand, the type that silences critics.
