Ashlee & Pete Popping Out a Spoiled Brat?
After months of playing coy, newlyweds Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and Pete Wentz have made it official: Yes, they’re expecting a baby.
“While many have speculated about this, we wanted to wait until after the first trimester to officially confirm that we are expecting our first child,” said a statement Wednesday on Wentz’s blog. “This is truly the most joyous time in our lives and we are excited to share the happy news and start our family.”
A representative for Simpson-Wentz didn’t immediately return a phone call Thursday seeking comment.
The pair exchanged vows earlier this month at her parents’ Los-Angeles area home. Sister Jessica Simpson was the maid of honor.
Baby rumors began swirling after the couple announced their engagement last month.
Simpson-Wentz, 23, stayed neutral — neither confirming nor denying the reports — while promoting her new album, “Bittersweet World.”
However, the 28-year-old Wentz, bassist for Fall Out Boy, issued an angry denial to MTV.com, saying: “There is a witch hunt for people to be pregnant whenever they get engaged in Hollywood. This is all news to me.”
