Singer Ashlee Simpson and her husband, rocker Pete Wentz, are expecting their first child, the couple have confirmed.
"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," the couple said in a message posted on the social networking website friendsorenemies.com.
"This is truly the most joyous time in our lives and we are excited to share the happy news and start our family."
Simpson and Wentz announced their engagement in April and married this month. They have been romantically linked since 2006.
Simpson, 23, released her third album, Bittersweet World, in April. She is the younger sister of singer and actress Jessica Simpson.
Wentz, 28, co-founded the band Fall Out Boy in 2001. The band has since built a loyal following with albums like its popular 2005 release From Under the Cork Tree.
