Ashlee and Pete May Really Be Headed for Splitsville

Just a couple of weeks ago there were stories floating around that Ashlee Simpson might be headed for Splitsville with her new hubby, Pete Wentz. I chalked it up to a slow news week, and the fact that they had a public fight, as married couples sometimes do. But now it seems, there may have been truth to the thinking that this was more than just an argument. And the initial reports that the trouble in Paradise is due to Ashlee’s drinking and partying apparently couldn’t be more wrong. Now, that I’ll believe. Ever since she got married and preggers, Ashlee has really not seemed like the party girl. That may change now that she’ll be out more and working more on the set of Melrose Place but up to this point, I don’t think her wild girl ways can be blamed. And Pete Wentz is a schmuck, I’d just also like to say. From Star via Celebitchy,

“It was Ashlee Simpson-Wentz’s worst nightmare come true. While rummaging around in a guest bedroom in her $4.7 million Beverly Hills home on Aug. 19, she discovered what she believed to be evidence of husband Pete Wentz cheating on her, a friend tells Star. Ashlee was so distraught that she dropped off their 9-month-old son, Bronx, at her parents’ house and checked into a hotel, even though Pete was performing with Fall Out Boy in St. Louis that night. “I can’t stand being at that house anymore,” Ashlee, 24. told her pal. “I need to clear my head. I have a lot on my plate, and my marriage is stressing me out.”

But when she called Pete to talk things out, he didn’t answer, which only enraged her. After repeatedly calling him (and getting his voicemail), Ashlee finally reached her husband – and snapped. An insider says she screamed, “Don’t even bother coming hoe! I don’t want to look at you!”

She must have struck a nerve, because that same night, Pete posted on Twitter, “Money doesn’t grow on trees. Neither does happiness,” before referring to himself as an “a–hole.” Four days later, he took a break in the band’s tour and traveled hoe to L.A. Pete Twittered about his excitement to see his son – but made no mention of his wife: “Can’t wait to see the little homie.”

As Star reported, Ashlee has long suspected her husband of getting too close to the young female musical acts he works with, Hey Monday and Millionaires and she can’t take the flirting anymore! “Ashlee doesn’t trust Pete at all,” says an insider. “They fight all the tie and sometimes don’t speak for days. Things have gotten bad. Pete doesn’t want to deal with Ashlee and her drama.”

Pete’s flirting sparked the latest public brawl between him and Ash at the one-year anniversary of his Chicago bar, Angels & Kings, on Aug. 15. Although he hadn’t seen his wife in almost a month and she’d come to town just for the day to support him, Pete, 30, quickly left Ash in the VIP area to hit the DJ booth and party with friends. After an hour and a half, she’d had enough and stormed over to her inebriated husband, says an eyewitness. “Ashlee was fumin. She yelled at Pete, ‘Enough! Let’s go!’”

I once really liked Ashlee Simpson and I stopped liking her a lot more once she married that idiot Wentz. So it wouldn’t kill me to see them break up. But I’m never a fan of families splitting apart either. It sounds like it’s a case of ‘he said/she said’ with Pete’s camp blaming it on Ashlee and vice versa. I think things just happened way too fast for this young couple. There really was a time that they were extremely happy and in love. But when you push something too far too fast, it’s bound to crack under the pressure. And when one of you is a complete schmuck, it’s gonna happen sooner rather than later.

First Candids of Bronx!

Bronx Mowgli Wentz has been spending some time across the pond lately with his parents, Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz and some paparazzi managed to snap some pics. Bronx looks so cute, albeit a bit surprised (probably by all those bright lights!) snuggled up against mom, Ashlee’s shoulder. Get used to it, Bronx, for the rest of your life strangers will be taking your picture! Ashlee and Pete posted the first official pic of Baby Bronx on their blog over Christmas to wish fans a happy holiday but these are the first candids. Thanks to Celebrity Baby Scoop for the pic and the caption.

Baby Bronx’s Broken Arm

Baby Bronx, the heir to the throne of Ash Wentzday, is not even 3 months old yet and it seems that he has already suffered a major injury - a broken arm! There are very few details being released just yet and I have only come across this one source so far so who knows if it’s even true but can you imagine if it is? Headlines wouldn’t see that kind of limelight since the days when Britney almost dropped Sean Preston. From Pop Crunch,

“Oh no! The Rumor Mill is ablaze with grumbles that Pete and Ashlee Simpson-Wentz’s infant son Bronx is being treated for a broken arm.

According to X17Online, Ashlee has cancelled a promotional appearance in Las Vegas due to her son’s injury.”

Hopefully this story isn’t true but if it is, hopefully poor little Bronx will be okay. And hopefully it doesn’t turn into a media frenzy of people questioning Ashlee and Pete’s parenting abilities. The media can be harsh and no young family just starting out needs that.

Jerry O’Connell Releases First Baby Pics

I am in no way at the head of the line of Jerry O’Connell and Rebecca Romijn fans but even I can’t help but be impressed that these two didn’t run to the first tabloid that offered them the highest dollar for pics of their newborn baby girls. Instead, Jerry O’Connell showed the first pics of the sweeties while co-hosting Live with Regis and Kelly with Kelly Ripa. Yep, for once he appeared to be a normal guy who was just seriously proud of his two little girls and why shouldn’t he be? They look like two perfect little angels in this picture. He went on to gush about his kids and his wife, and I could almost start to like him but because I already disliked him in the first place, I can’t help but get hung up on a few stupid remarks he made. From Celebrity Baby Scoop,

“I don’t want to be one of those guys who is like, ‘Look at my babies.’ The second you have kids, you can’t help but be like, ‘I happen to have some photos of my children.’”

Since welcoming the twins, Jerry has become hygiene-obsessed and washes his hands “all the time.” He also said he’s refraining from baby talk around the girls. “I really try to not speak in baby talk. I want them to be intelligent.”

Jerry also told Kelly that Rebecca is an amazing mother: “I have to give a lot of kudos to my wife. [She] is now waking up every three hours and doing what we call the ‘Double Football.’ They eat at the same time!”

See, now I have that image of Rebecca with both babies at the teet and that’s just not an image I needed in my head. It seems as though Jerry O’Connell can join celebrities such as Pete Wentz that don’t know when too much information is just too much information. I also don’t know how the rest of us aren’t walking around like a bunch of blithering idiots seeing as how most of us were probably baby-talked to when we were infants. I am a firm believer that parents make choices on what they believe is best for their kids but I don’t like the insinuation that babies who are spoken to in baby-babble won’t be ‘intelligent.’ Darn, I almost liked him for a minute too!

First Pic of Baby Bronx!

Staying true to the way these two have always led their personal lives, Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz took to their blog over the holidays to not only send season’s greetings to their fans but to also debut the first pics of their newborn son, Bronx Mowgli. This picture along with the following message was posted on the blog (from Bump Shack),

“Happy Holidays
To all our friends!
Love Pete, Ashlee and Bronx

We decided to share the best gift we could ever receive with you: Bronx Mowgli Wentz. We couldn’t be happier. And in the spirit of the holidays, we’d like to encourage you to give on your own. Below is a list of worthwhile charities that need your support:

www.theirc.org | www.roomtogrow.com | www.richiemaddenfoundation.com”

This is one of those things that this couple is famous for doing that really makes you want to like them. And then Pete opens his mouth and it all changes all over again. You can’t get a really good look at Bronx in this pic but he’s a newborn and they all really do look pretty much the same. I do though, love the look on Ashlee’s face, very sweet.

What do you think about Ashlee and Pete?

I don’t at all like Ashlee Simpson or Pete Wentz but I have to admit, no matter how weird or annoying I think they are, it’s clear that there is something very special about these two and that they are in fact, very much in love. Daily Blabber recently had pieces of an interview that the two had done with E! and there was definitely a lot to talk about now that they are starting to talk about new Baby Bronx. In the interview Pete starts off by being the annoying juvenile that I normally think he is but then he opens up about his new wife, Ashlee and even I have to admit, I can’t help but thinking, ‘aawwww….’ From Daily Blabber,

“New dad Pete Wentz has been gushing about his wife, Ashlee Simpson-Wentz, and all the things about her that he just adores — you know, like her bod.

“I would start with the breasts,” the Fall Out Boy rocker told E!’s Daily 10, about his wife’s best feature.

But, after the typical guy answer, Pete got all mushy about Ash.

“Ashlee is the kind of person that understands me in a way that other human beings don’t understand each other,” he said. “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,” the guitarist revealed. “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.”

I think part of what I like most about this story is that it shows that these two do normal married things, like think about what the other needs while they’ll be traveling. Yeah, these two might just make me like them after all. But it would really help if Pete got a better fashion sense.

Ashlee and Pete FINALLY Had Their Baby!

The news came in early this morning that Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz had a beautiful and healthy baby boy late Thursday night. And isn’t it about time? From US,

“Ashlee Simpson and husband Pete Wentz have welcomed their first child, a boy.

Bronx Mowgli Wentz - who weighed 7 lbs, 11 oz, and was 20.5 inches long - was born Thursday night, a spokesperson for the couple confirms to Usmagazine.com.

“Proud new parents Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson-Wentz welcomed new son, Bronx Mowgli Wentz, late this evening,” the rep tells Us. “Ashlee, Pete and baby Bronx are all healthy and happy, and thank everyone for their well wishes!”

You can read the entire article here, to read about Ashlee’s constant craving for green olives and about how her scholar sister thinks that Ashlee will be a strict mom because she’s been ’so good throughout her pregnancy.’ I don’t know what that means either. Maybe Jess thought that Ashlee sent her unborn child to time-out or told little Baby Bronx to clean up her uterus. Well, I guess now we’ll wait to see who gets the rights to the first baby pictures but knowing the vintage/hippie/rocker types these two are, we’ll most likely see them up on their blog or MySpace page!

Ashlee Simpson’s Baby Watch

Ashlee Simpson has got to be overdue with that baby she’s been carrying around for 9+ months. Like, way, way overdue. This pregnancy just seems to be going on forever! There was talk that Ashlee was going to be induced but that doesn’t seem to be the case as Pete Wentz, her dear husband, recently missed a gig at MTV to be with his preggers wife. Well I guess so! She’s so big now that she probably can’t even make it out of bed! The Gossip Girls caught up with him as he left her for a moment to go catch up on some shopping and they also had words from his bandmate, who was at the MTV event and talked about missing his bandmate. From the Gossip Girls,

“At the MTV Total Finale Live shindig this past Sunday (which Pete missed to be with Simpson) Fall Out Boy vocalist/guitarist Patrick Stump told press, “I’m not spilling anything. As far as I know, there’s no baby yet. But still, there’s a very pregnant woman, so he definitely needs to be there. It was a mutual thing, though I miss the crud out of him. I wish he were here.”

Okay, so I understand that it would suck to not have your whole band present but really, what kind of guy talks about ‘missing the crud’ out of another guy? That’s just weird to me. What’s even weirder though is Pete’s look. I really wish he would ditch the skinny jeans because they just look absurd on him and he just in general has very, very bad fashion sense. And the stone-wash or acid-wash or whatever that is, is NOT back in style…someone should clue him in. I guess that’s what he and Ashlee initially bonded over as she aslo usually trots around in some particularly awful wardrobe choices. Hopefully Ashlee will hurry up and have that baby so that we can stop talking about these two!

Ashlee Simpson is Ready to Pop!

Even though Ash Wentzday sort of bother me, I can’t help but appreciate how this young couple has kept a low profile after their wedding, and after announcing the news that they were expecting. I have to admit, I totally thought that these two were going to exploit the crap out of the situation but they have indeed proved me wrong!

And here we are about six months later and Ashlee Simpson looks due to give birth any day now! Of course the family is beside themselves with excitement and her dad can’t help but boast about how proud he is of his little girl. Aw! From Celebrity Baby Scoop,

“Joe Simpson says his while daughter Ashley may only be 24, finding out she was pregnant turned her into a full-fledged grown up!

“The day she found out she was pregnant, she became a woman,” Joe Simpson tells PEOPLE. “She’s concerned about what she eats and how she prepares for the child and [details like], is the baby’s room ‘green’ enough?” he explains. “It’s a transformation you never expect as a parent – you pray for it, but never expect it. She’s ready for this baby!”

I even like Ashlee’s style a little better these days. She’s still the kind of hippie/vintage chick that she wants to be but like her dad says, it does seem to be in a bit of a more sophisticated manner. I guess my next question is, ‘Why’s she with that idiot?’ Oh, that’s not nice, shame on me!

Pete Wentz is an Idiot!!

Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson really bother me. It’s not Ashlee so much as it is her dumbo husband, Pete Wentz. Here are two people who are clearly too young to be married never mind parents! I know they’re in their mid 20s and while that may be plenty old enough for some people, these two just keep proving how truly stupid they are. Not only do they lie to their fans, and spend hours blogging meaninglessly but now Pete is beginning to reveal all the stupid stuff that he did when he was even younger. From Celebitchy,

“PETE Wentz once played a scary game of Russian roulette while in a booze-and-pill stupor. “I pulled a trigger on a gun aimed at myself,” the Fall Out Boy star and hubby of Ashlee Simpson confesses in next month’s Playboy. “My friend and I did one pull each. We’d been drinking and had taken Ambien. I feel stupid even talking about it. It’s one of the reasons I’ve never owned a gun - I’m too impulsive. I’d probably get mad and shoot someone over a part in a song or something.”

Now, what kids do is what kids do. But what you talk about publicly when you’re an adult and have a child on the way is your responsibility and Pete really should know better than saying stupid crap like this. It seems that he actually does as he admits that he feels stupid even talking about it now. But he goes on anyhow. I can’t wait to see what other stupid things Pete has in store for this pregnancy. He’s also recently said that he wants to take the infant (yes that’s right, I said infant) on tour (yes that’s right, I said tour) with him and his band. That sounds like it will turn out just swell.
