Ashlee & Pete: It's Over So Soon?

Sassy Smith — Sun, 29 Mar 2009 11:35:00 GMT

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz were married May 17, 2008 and welcomed their first child, son Bronx, four months ago and things seemed like they were going well for the musical couple. However, according to sources, their marriage is on the rocks and "just isn't working."

Simpson and Wentz attended the 2009 MTV Australia Awards Friday night and seemed happy enough. They appeared to be more in love than ever and were all smiles and sunshine.

But, things aren't always what they seem. A friend said, "Ashlee thinks Pete doesn't pay her enough attention and is out partying too much. He needs to work on their marriage more."

Another pal dished, "Ashlee is feeling a bit neglected [by Pete] in recent weeks... Pete does seem kind of bored lately, and he doesn't talk about Ashlee like he used to. The gushing has stopped."

A lot of new parents go through this - trying to get into a new routine once the baby comes, and sometimes forgetting to pay attention to their relationship as a couple.

The friend added, "Ashlee and Pete are on the rocks. He is going out all the time and she's stuck at home. It's just not working."

Ashlee feels like all she's doing is changing diapers and doing feedings, while Pete is out having fun.

Perhaps they should make time for each other, and Ashlee should get out with friends and let Pete take over with Bronx once in a while! Hopefully they'll make it work - having a baby changes a lot and you really have to find time to remember you're a couple too.

Good luck guys!

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz Have a Handle on Bronx

I'm Under the Spell of Bronx Mowgli

sweatpantsmom — Tue, 10 Mar 2009 23:05:00 GMT

Here's a great close-up of Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz' baby Bronx Mowgli. That there is one seriously cute baby. Sure he's got a weird name, but something about that face makes me forgive that. Oh, those eyes.

In fact, after staring into those deep baby blues for a few minutes I'm willing to forgive Bronx for anything bad he may have done in his life. Cried all night? That's okay. Spit up on mom's Prada blouse? No problem. Now I'm getting the feeling Bronx can make me hand over all the candy in my purse. Here, Bronx - take my car keys...I'm getting sleepy...

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz are taking up acting - doing a guest spot on CSI. The couple filmed the episode just two months after their first child, Bronx Mowgli, was born. Pete said it was easy playing his character because he had Ashlee by his side. "It's easy to play passionate roles with the person you love."

Video after the jump!

Pete and Ashlee play a husband and wife Bonnie and Clyde-type couple and the episode will air on March 18.

Wentz was hoping to "be murdered or rob a bank," but said he'd heard "the make-up is much longer for that."

The clip is short, so it's hard to say if they have many lines but based on what I see, I'm thinking they should stick to music. Ashlee does look cute though, especially for just having had a baby two months prior. She said she wasn't in a rush to lose the baby weight, but somehow, it seemed to fall off of her. Damn her.

I wonder if baby Bronx will want to be in the biz when he gets older? Will he have musical chops like his parents or will he get the acting bug? Or... maybe he'll end up as an accountant! Now, that'd be funny.

Watch - do you think they can act?

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz were spotted in London with the latest celebrity accessory - the baby carrier. With the baby boom taking place among celebrities these days, the ubiquitous infant utility seems to be replacing the Birkin Bag. But as you can see, when you're emo nothing will ever replace your black jeans and hoodies.

The couple were in England for a string of shows by Wentz's band Fall Out Boy. That's the name of Pete's band, not what is going to happen with Bronx and that baby carrier.

Ashlee Simpson's Weight Loss Plan

Sassy Smith — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 13:02:00 GMT

Ashlee Simpson gave birth 2 months ago to her first child - son Bronx Mowgli - and of course, she hopes to get back to her pre-baby body. We've seen her out since becoming a mom, and while she looks good, it appears she's not been starving herself in hopes of getting too thin, too quickly. So, what is her weight loss strategy?

Simpson has started with Jackie Keller's 30-day Body After Baby plan, which includes "mommy and me" workouts.

The 24-year-old singer also has Nutrifit meals and snacks delivered to her home daily. Her goal is to lose 30 pounds.

A friend tells OK!, "She's swapping french toast and sugary syrup for multi-grain bread and berries." She does treat herself now and then, and if husband Pete Wentz brings home pizza, she'll add lots of veggies and have a slice.

I like her, she seems sensible about losing weight, not wanting to be some stick-thin waif. Of course, most moms want to get back in shape after having a baby but we all know that in celebrity-land, it's like some sort of race! Glad Ashlee's not in it.

The blond hair is over, that is. Ashlee Simpson sported red hair during her pregnancy and a few weeks after giving birth to Bronx, went back to her trademark blond locks. However, she's back to red!

More pics after the jump!

Ash had said she wouldn't dye her hair while pregnant so she waited until baby came, went back to blond and now, just a couple of weeks later, is back to red. Can't say I blame her - I think the red hair is very nice on her! Maybe hubby Pete thinks it's hot too?

Bronx Mowgli: My Daddy Has To Stop Swearing

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz became first-time parents on November 20 and they're both on cloud nine when it comes to their new son, Bronx Mowgli. Pete's even made a New Year's resolution - learning to watch his "bad mouth."

Pete and Ashlee talk Bronx:

Pete on selling Bronx's photos:

"People came and made offers to us. [But] it seems strange that your first picture would be next to ‘Who’s hot! Who’s not!’"

Pete on his son and what the new year will bring:

"The thing I’m looking forward to is watching Bronx discover life…the first time he laughs, first time he crawls…It’s kind of cool to go back to someone else and care for someone and have responsibility… It’s one of the few aspects of life where the clichés are totally true."

Pete's New Year's resolution:

"I’m working on not swearing around Bronx…I know I have a bit of a bad mouth," he admits, while Ashlee chimes in, "I’m more of a ‘Gee golly!’ kind of person."

Ashlee on being able to do some things post-pregnancy:

"I couldn’t put bleach to my head while I was pregnant, so I’m happy to be blonde again," she reveals, adding that's also working to get back her pre-baby bod. "I'm being a mom. I'm breast-feeding and when I get a chance to work out, I'm working out."

Pete thinks "she's a babe!"

The couple ditched diaper duty for a few hours to attend the party at PURE nightclub in Vegas and Ashlee couldn't stop gushing over her new son:

"He laughed for the first time. That was pretty exciting." She added, "All my focus is on my son. Every day, being a better mom and learning with him. It's an incredible experience."

What about Ashlee's New Year's plans?

She hopes to be balancing motherhood and work in the not-too-distant future and plans "to go back in the studio [to] start working. Not quite yet, but soon."

Ashlee Wants Pete To Stop Talking: Sex Life & Breast Milk Off Limits! (Video)

Sassy Smith — Wed, 24 Dec 2008 17:05:00 GMT

We get it - Pete Wentz is in love with his wife Ashlee Simpson and of course their new son, Bronx Mowgli. Perhaps his euphoric state is what has given him loose lips and has him blabbing all over town about how fantastic sex is with Ash and how her breast milk is "soury and weird" tasting - TMI dude, T.M.I. Ashlee thinks so too and wants him to stop talking already!

Video after the jump!

Wentz told fans during a recent Fallout Boy concert that Ashlee gave him quite a scolding for talking publically about their private life - particularly their sex life. Ash said, "I'm going to pay you back a**hole."

Apparently his wife isn't pleased that he told Howard Stern's listeners that she likes to give him lapdances and that he drank her breast milk. Uh, can't say as that I blame her! Please, in the future, just keep that stuff to yourself Pete - you'll be doing us all a favor. Thanks!

Ashlee Simpson-Wentz has had her time in the spotlight with her marriage to Fallout Boy Pete Wentz and the birth of their first son, Bronx, and now it's time for big sis Jessica to take her turn!

According to sources who revealed the deets to perezhilton.com, Jess and boyfriend, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo are "actively trying" for a baby. Code for they're getting it on!

The insider added, "I wouldn't be surprised if Jess makes an announcement that she's pregnant very soon."

Maybe there'll be a big surprise at the Simpson family Christmas celebrations! Both girls and their respective mates are heading to Waco, Texas for the holidays.

A source dishes, "This Christmas is a big deal, and the whole family wants to be together for baby Bronx's first Christmas." And maybe a baby announcement?

We'll be on bump watch!

Pete Wentz Admits To Tasting Ashlee's Breast Milk

Sassy Smith — Tue, 23 Dec 2008 19:07:00 GMT

Has Pete Wentz always disclosed this much personal information? Or is it because he's a new dad that everything seems to just pour out of his mouth, whether we want to know it or not? Pete gave us all an earful about his super sex life with wife Ashlee Simpson and now he's letting us know that he's tasted her breast milk.

Seriously, that's one more thing than I really needed to know about Pete Wentz. He's obviously not the first man that has had a sample of their partner's boob milk, but really, did we have to hear about it? Isn't that a private moment between a couple, you know, if they're into that?

He told Howard Stern during their December 16 radio interview that Ashlee's breast milk tastes "soury and weird." He added, "The baby loves it, it's the only thing he's had a chance to have." Yes, considering Bronx is only a month old, he's not going to be chowing down on steak just yet.

Pete also said his wife wasn't the only one to put on a few pounds during the pregnancy. "I gained 10 pounds at least. I usually hang out around 135, 134, I go up to about 140, and when I hit 148, I get a fat face.

"I'm working out a little bit, trying... I mean last night I decided to eat Virgil's [BBQ] at midnight which is never a good idea... I'm feeling that a little bit today. For the most part, we're going on walks - that kind of stuff. I think it comes off easier for her because she gets to breastfeed and I don't have the luxury of doing that."

The 29-year-old musician also said that he and Ashlee want more kids.

"I want to have six now. I mean not six specifically, but I want more... I can't imagine that we're stopping, you know what I'm saying? This is like a Journey song, it's like the chorus is just going to keep coming."

Baby Bronx is already a musician in the making according to the proud dad. He added, "You know he's already got a little bass, he has a little piano."

Even though their son is an infant, Pete plans to spoil him his first Christmas.

"I don't think at one they matter that much to him, but they matter a lot to me, so I'm going to be there sweating it out, putting things together... the night before Christmas because I know that's what my Dad did and I know that's what I want to do."

To hear more, the interview will be rebroadcast on Tuesday, December 23 at 6:00 am ET on SIRIUS Hits 1 SIRIUS channel 1.

What Will Pete Wentz Read To Bronx?

Sassy Smith — Sat, 13 Dec 2008 16:08:00 GMT

Fallout Boy's Pete Wentz is a first-time daddy to son Bronx Mowgli, 3-weeks old, and he's already planning on what he'll read to his little one!

USA Weekend Magazine spoke with Wentz about being a new father:

What will he read to Bronx?

"Growing up, my parents OD'd me on the library, and I was pretty loaded up when it came to children's books. I definitely can't wait to read some of my favorites, like "Goodnight Moons," "The Little Prince" and the "Mr. Men and Little Miss" books. I know that we already picked up the 50th anniversary copy of "Paddington Bear," which is a great one."

Less sleep for the new daddy?

"Ashlee is stoked because I don't really sleep much. I'm not really worried about that. I should have been a shift worker. But in terms of how life might change, I have two dogs right now, and before I had the dogs, I was in a phase of my life that was particularly selfish. When I finally got them, I realized that if I didn't get up, the dog doesn't get fed, and no one is going to feed the dog for you. I spent 28 years living under this umbrella when it was raining out, and I finally removed the umbrella and felt the rain just like everyone else."

And Pete told E! Online that his wife's breasts are his favorite feature. Uh, okay.

He adds:

"Ashlee is the kind of person that understands me in a way that other human beings don’t understand each other. I would say that we fit together kind of like Lego pieces, and that’s how we’re able to communicate. She’s always there for me, she always has my back no matter what,” Wentz says. “If I have to leave at 6 a.m. to go somewhere, she’s packing my bag for me. I’m like, ‘What are you doing up at 6 a.m.?’ and she’s packing my bag."

The Truth About Bronx Mowgli's Photos

Sassy Smith — Sat, 13 Dec 2008 14:08:00 GMT

Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and husband Pete Wentz became parents on November 20 to a son - Bronx Mowgli. And of course everyone's dying to see what the little man looks like - well, some of us are. According to reports, not a single magazine has showed any interest in publishing the baby's photos. But, new dad Pete says, it's all big fat lies. Oh do tell!

Here is what Pete wrote:

"ring ring, it's the truth calling:

About baby pics gossip: truth is like every celeb couple we were offered
mounds and mounds of money by mags from here to Guam to pimp out the baby. We just don’t want to go down that road with him.

We are not placing judgment on those that do as they often use the money in a very charitable way. However, we have made the decision to not sell Bronx’s baby pictures right now. We understand that like other celebrities have said, “there is a bounty on our heads” for these pictures. There is a danger when there are cameras being held over walls and into our backyard. We are followed day and night and that was fine when it was us but we are going to do our best to shelter Bronx from that as much as possible. Its scary to be followed by 10 cars to your home. We understand the curiosity, just not the viciousness that comes along with it when it becomes so insatiable. We know there will be a time when we’ll share him with everyone because that insatiable curiousity becomes unsafe or simply because we’re proud parents who want to show him off! We know our fans support and care about us and want to know about our family and we’ve always been straight up and open with those who care about us most, so at some time, when it makes sense, Bronx will be out in the world.

In the meantime, we’d like to say thank you to those who have allowed us relative privacy in letting us just be a family for now - and to enjoy all the happiness he’s brought us.

ps trust me he’s cute. he looks like his mommy."

So there you have it. The mags do really want to see pics of Bronx in their publications but the Simpson-Wentz family does not. Do you think they did get offers? For realz?

"Dog Whisperer" Visits Ashlee Simpson & Pete Wentz

Sassy Smith — Tue, 09 Dec 2008 14:06:00 GMT

Parents-to-be, who are dog owners, know it's important that your pet will be submissive and accepting of the new baby. Sometimes dogs become more aggressive when a new, little person enters the home. Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and Pete Wentz, who welcomed their first baby, Bronx Mowgli on November 20, wanted to be sure that their English bulldog, Hemingway, was well behaved before baby came. The couple brought home another English bulldog as a "buddy" - Rigby, 5 months - but that just made Hemingway behave badly! They needed the "Dog Whisperer."

One more pic after the jump!

Dog expert and TV show star, Cesar Millan aka the "Dog Whisperer," was called in to give Ashlee and Pete a helping hand before their first baby came home. The pair wanted to be sure their home was baby friendly and a safe place for their child.

But adding a new pup to the mix just made things worse with their bulldog, Hemingway, and he became more aggressive when Rigby entered the picture. Millian stepped in to give the (then expectant) parents some advice and the episode featuring the Wentz's will air on National Geographic Channel on December 28 at 7 p.m.

Hopefully the dogs have been on their best behavior since Bronx's arrival!

Pete & Ashlee: Baby Bronx Wasn't Planned

Sassy Smith — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 16:04:00 GMT

Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson-Wentz are brand new parents to baby Bronx Mowgli but what many may not know is that the pregnancy was not planned. Pete says, "It was a happy accident. But I think that certain things happen for a reason in your life, and maybe it was time to put the wild child in a cage."

Wentz tells Details magazine, that his son is just the excuse he needs to get past his old rock-star ways. Pete admits to prescription drug experimentation, including his attempted overdose on Ativan in 2005. However, the death of Heath Ledger in January gave Pete great pause.

He said, "Dude, after Heath Ledger, I was just like, Man, this is not going to end up good."

Pete says that Ashlee has also played a part in his maturing. He said, "I realized I'd found my soul mate, and it made me want to be a better person. Now, with the baby, I want to be the best dad I can be." The two wed in an Alice in Wonderland-themed ceremony in May.

And would the newlyweds ever do a reality show?

Nope. The Fallout Boy bassist said, "I get pitched, like, Newlyweds 2 once a week dude. For like, move-to-an-island-after-this money. I just can't do it." Uh ya, we saw what happened to Ashlee's sister, Jessica. Stay away from the reality TV - especially with a baby!

And really, it's not a big deal that Bronx wasn't planned - out of my four kids, only one was. Doesn't mean they were less wanted!

New Details About Ashlee & Pete's Baby Bronx!

Sassy Smith — Sun, 30 Nov 2008 22:04:00 GMT

Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and husband Pete Wentz welcomed their first child, son Bronx Mowgli, on November 20th and new details on baby and mom are out! Little Bronx weighed in at 7 lbs., 11 oz., but what does he look like?

According to sources, he has dirty blond hair just like Ashlee's natural color. And he's "a really happy baby who is pretty laid back. Unless, there's too much noise around him, he's always happy and smiling." Yes, baby's who are just over a week old, are constantly smiling!

The pal said that the new parents are very happy and despite rumors that Bronx was super late, that's not the case.

"Ashlee is happy and had a normal pregnancy. She gave birth right around the time she was scheduled to."

The insider adds, "The whole family is doing great! They are all happy and healthy!"

Pete will be performing with Fall Out Boy next week, and new mom and baby will be staying put.

Can't wait to see the little guy!

First Photos Of Bronx Mowgli Brings $2 Million?

Sassy Smith — Thu, 27 Nov 2008 18:06:00 GMT

New 'celebrity baby' Bronx Mowgli, son of Ashlee Simpson Wentz and Pete Wentz, will be making his photo debut at some point, whether it be just by being photographed by paps in mom's arms or in an official photo shoot. And speaking of official pics, will Ashlee and Pete do that? According to some, they could get $2 million for them!

Howard Bragman, publicist to celebrities (does not work for the Wentz's) and author of 'Where's My 15 Minutes' said, "I see Ashlee and Pete coming in at the low seven figures mark. Two million seems like a good, solid figure for Ashlee and Pete. It's a two-celeb couple, so that's a boost for them."

So will they sell photos of their baby?

Bragman added, "Keep in mind, last year, Ashlee was the girl who sang along to the tape recorder," referring to her stint on SNL where she was caught lip-synching. "It was a PR nightmare. Now, she's a newlywed and a new mom, so she's a lot more relatable."

The publicist said that Ashlee could learn a thing or two from Angelina Jolie's 'baby-branding strategy.' He said, "Nobody does this better than Angelina. She and Brad Pitt have been very careful to make it clear that the money they've been getting has been part of their charity outreach work. The big bucks are a nice perk, but for them, the publicity is priceless."

And what's in it for magazines to fork out such ridiculous amounts of money? They don't often recoup that money in sales, but it's a case of "bragging rights." Bragman added, "Human beings are conditioned to love babies. And when you take two celebs and they have a baby, it's alchemy. It piques our curiosity - what will it look like? But it also humanizes the celebrity. It makes them relatable."

Ashlee & Pete Moving Bronx To Brooklyn!

Sassy Smith — Wed, 26 Nov 2008 16:04:00 GMT

Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and her husband Pete Wentz are all set to leave L.A. and move to New York! The new parents to Bronx Mowgli (no I'm not making that up) aren't settling in the Bronx, although that would be interesting. The family of three is heading to Brooklyn!

The couple plan to move sometime in the spring. A pal tells OK!, "They want to settle into their new life with a baby before they move to Brooklyn."

People are still wondering why Ashlee and Pete chose 'Mowgli' as their son's middle name. According to a friend of Ashlee's, it was chosen in hopes that he would "acquire the same qualities the fictional Jungle Book character Mowgli has."

The pal said, "Pete and Ashlee want Bronx to be a survivor, just like Mowgli." Yes, just wait until he's on the playground - he'll definitely have to be a survivor!

The Real Deal: Pete Wentz Talks Bronx Mowgli!

Sassy Smith — Tue, 25 Nov 2008 18:33:00 GMT

Many baby name 'experts' have been weighing in on why Ashlee Simpson Wentz and Pete Wentz have named their newborn son, Bronx Mowgli. However, the daddy himself is speaking out on what their baby's name means. Speaking of Ashlee, how is the new mom feeling?

Proud new dad, Pete spoke to E! News Ryan Seacrest:

"I feel weird - people have all these ideas of what it means now. I think it's kind of cool to leave the narrative the way it is.

"People are stoked or pissed or whatever... I don't think anybody knows the real story of why or how."

Pete adds, "We came up with the idea Bronx, we'd been throwing it back and forth a while ago The Jungle Book is something me and Ashlee bonded over. It's really cool."

And Wentz is enjoying his new duties and that includes changing diapers. He says, "Yeah, I've changed quit a few. I've definitely done a couple of exploding ones."

The 29-year-old musician said he was "instantly in love," with his new son and "it's impossible not to be." He and Ashlee's lives have changed already.

How is Ashlee?

Pete said she's "pretty much a saint." Adding, "Right before she went into labor, I was pretty much like, 'Oh my god, I think I'm having a heart attack.' She took care of me and made sure I was OK," even though she was in "all this pain."

He continued, "She's really good, really good, actually. The grandmas have been really good, helping us a lot."

And all of their well-intended friends are hoping to catch a glimpse of the new Wentz. "Yeah, it's like opening a new spot in L.A. Everyone's trying to get in every night - they're like, 'No, I know Pete, kind of.' I'm like, you do not have a plus-one."

The new family of three are expected to move to New York in the spring. Yes, Bronx is heading to Brooklyn!
