The 'Dukes of Hazzard' actress was set up on a date with Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo by her dad Joe, after he realized the pair were perfect for each other.
A source close to Jessica told the New York Post newspaper: "Joe and Tony have been friendly for a while. Joe is a huge Dallas Cowboys fan, and Tony has always had a crush on her - he even said on his website about a year ago that it was his dream to date her.
"Jessica has been in Nashville and Dallas recording her new country album. When Tony found out, he called Joe and said, 'I know she's not dating anyone right now, can I take her out for a drink at least?'
"Jessica said it was OK for Joe to give Tony her number and they hit it off. They've been dating for a couple of weeks now, and Jessica is so happy. She's been texting everyone about how great he is."
