“I can’t control [that] everyone has a camera now and the ability to [record] you,” she told Elle in an interview published May 27. “You kind of feel like you’re in the zoo when you’re out in the wild.”

The one thing the Honey actress has been able to do is “control the narrative as much as possible through” her own social media accounts. And while those spaces are still “edited and curated,” for Jessica “it just feels less chaotic than other people’s versions of who I might be that don’t know me.”

“You also just can’t care so much about exterior people who don't know you deeply or care for you deeply,” she added. “You have to take everything with a grain of salt, the ups and the downs of people’s perceptions.”

She’s also found that her perception of love has changed as she’s gotten older. 

“It’s not always a movie or a rom-com,” Jessica mused. “Sometimes love is just sitting there when someone’s not feeling well and rubbing their head, or just allowing someone to rage and giving them space. But still being there and knowing that nothing they can do can push you away.”
