Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz have taken to the internet to officially announce Ashley’s pregnancy.

Pete wrote on his site, friendsorenemies.com:

“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. This is truly the most joyous time in our lives and we are excited to share the happy news and start our family.”

- Pete and Ashlee Wentz

Yep, Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz made it official yesterday and were married at her parents home.

Papa Joe performed the ceremony and sister Jessica was the maid of honor.  Pete’s dog, a English Bulldog, Hemingway was the ring bearer.

The wedding had an Alice in Wonderland theme and the cake was described as “a top hat, tea pot, stop watch and a pot of flowers on top.”  Centerpieces were made of black roses.

Ashlee’s dress was by Monique Lhuillier and was ivory lace.

Tony Romo, (yep, he showed) Nicole Richie and Joel Madden, Donald Faison and girlfriend CaCee Cobb were among the 150 guests who attended the wedding.

OK! magazine is reporting that the couple officially announced the pregnancy to guests of the ceremony.

We pretty much already knew this so it isn’t breaking news or anything, but apparently it has been confirmed by a close source that Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz will marry this Saturday, May 17th.

The source told Us magazine, “Proper invites have not been sent out but instead guests have been given a save the date notice.”

As I told you last week, guests do not know the location of the ceremony. Instead, they will all meet at a specific location and will be driven to the ceremony site.

The rehearsal dinner will be attended by “family and close friends only”, as with every other person’s wedding, and will happen on Friday.

Simpson’s spokesperson is still refusing to confirm the wedding, saying it’s a personal matter. But you can pretty much bet on it.

Do you think they will last? Everyone thought Jessica and Nick would make it - and that went totally South! For some reason, I think the pretty little emo couple will do alright. I mean, they totally share makeup, clothes, hair dye.. It was simply meant to be!

UPDATE: Derober..com just published pics of Ashlee with some guy she may have hooked up with just after her and Pete got together. It seems that ‘Joe average’ hinted that he hit that, and even ‘did the math’ to make sure he wasn’t the daddy of the unborn baby!

“I don’t see myself following the path those girls take. I’m almost 24. I’m pretty together and I’m getting married. I wouldn’t ever let myself get that way and I don’t surround myself with ‘yes’ people. I think that’s the most important thing. People don’t control me or anything I do and I’ve never had that problem.”

- Ashlee Simpson doesn’t want to end up like Britney or Lindsay

In what seems to be a for sure jinx of their marriage before the rings are even on their fingers, Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz are planning their very own version of the Jessica Simpson/Nick Lachey reality show, ‘Newlyweds’.

And once again, Papa Joe is the mastermind behind it. His reasoning is that after ‘Newlyweds’ Jessica ’s career caught fire, so he’s hoping to boost Ashlee’s as well.

Well, he better think of something, because she can’t sing for sh*t!

Ashlee and Pete’s publicist is, of course, denying there is any truth to supposed MTV reality show.

Ashlee Simpson was on Ellen this morning and Ellen did a great job probing her about the pregnancy rumors.

Although Simpson skirted the issue, it sure seems that her answers screamed “YES! I’m pregnant!”

Too bad you can’t have plastic surgery to make you sing and dance good..

One year ago today Sanjaya Malakar was finally booted off American Idol.

Britney Spears was spending a lot of time at Millenium Dance Studio in her cowboy boots and fishnets.

A man came forward claiming to be Larry Birkhead’s secret gay lover.

And finally, Ashlee Simpson was smelling Pete Wentz’s finger.

Now we know why Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz were so eager to announce their engagement last Wednesday.

Ashlee is pregnant, according to Us magazine.

A spokesperson for the couple told the publication, “We are thrilled to confirm their engagement and congratulate this happy couple. Beyond that there is nothing to say.”

I hope the baby has her old nose…heh.

Ashlee Simpson, 23, and Pete Wentz, 28, are engaged to be married.

A source told Us magazine, “They are ecstatic and can’t wait to be man and wife. They will be getting married before the end of the year.”

Simpson’s spokesperson confirmed the news, “Yes, they are happily engaged.” However, they wouldn’t confirm if the pop star is pregnant.

Simpson posted the following on friendsorenemies.com yesterday:

“We know there has been a lot of speculation recently about Pete and I, and we wanted our fans to be the first to know, because you guys are the best. Yes, we are thrilled to share that we are happily engaged.”

Simpson and Wentz have been together since 2006.
