New parents Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz might already be hitting a rough patch in their short marriage.

I said “might” because I am not too sure about this one.

Page Six is reporting that the couple is struggling with their relationship, Ashlee in particular. A source told the publication, “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.”

Hmm… these two have plenty of cash for nannies. I highly doubt Ashlee is “stuck” at home. And anyway, the two of them are loving Australia right now – without baby Mowgli.

Simpson’s publicist denies the claims saying, “This is not true. Everything is fine in their world.”
