I cannot believe this is my last and final blog. It has been fun sharing my thoughts with anyone who is reading and voicing my opinions about the entertainment industry.
Recently Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz announced their engagement! Engagements and weddings are always such an exciting time for couples, so in my opinion it is a fun topic to read about and discuss. The pair have been dating for a little over two years, and have always seemed like a perfect fit.
Wentz, 28, is a member of popular rock band Fall Out Boy. Simpson, 23, is a singer and songwriter and also the younger sister of singer Jessica Simpson. The pair released the following statement through People magazine on Wednesday night:
“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. Thank you for all of your support and well wishes — it means the world to us. We consider this to be a very private matter, and we wanted to be the first to tell you and to hear it straight from us.”
Sadly, amidst all of the excitement of their engagement there are rumors going around. Rumors that Ashlee Simpson is pregnant and that is the reason for the engagement. Why can’t people just leave them alone and let them enjoy this exciting time? I do not understand why people cannot just be happy for a young couple in love. If I was Simpson on Wentz’s publicists I would be very offended by this. They have done everything right by releasing a statement and being open about their engagement and still they face backlash. As a publicist that would be so frustrating.
I hope this couple can look past the annoying speculation and enjoy this exciting time in their lives!
