Pop star Ashlee Simpson is reportedly pregnant, according to an article posted by US Magazine on Monday. An unidentified source close to the 23 year-old singer told the magazine Jessica Simpson's younger sister is expecting her first child with 28 year-old fiancé Pete Wentz. However, Wentz is denying the pregnancy rumours are true. US Magazine
announced on Monday morning that a source close to Simpson
had confirmed that she was expecting. A spokesman for Simpson refused
to comment on the rumoured pregnancy, saying only that the couple was
"ecstatic" about their engagement and "can't wait to be man and wife." Another report in OK! Magazine cited
an unidentified source who said the baby is due in October and Simpson
has recently been experiencing "fierce" morning sickness. In contrast to the baby rumours spreading through the gossip blogs, Simpson's fiancé, Fall Out Boy band member Pete Wentz, says the reports of Simpson's pregnancy are false. In an e-mail to MTV News on Monday, Wentz said: "There is a witch hunt for people to be pregnant whenever they get engaged in Hollywood." "I can't wait for the story about how
I'm really in a gay relationship and this is all just a cover. ...I
mean really, this is crazy. ...I mean, we're engaged, that's true, and
happy about it." The couple went public with their engagement last week, but so far no wedding plans have yet been announced.
