Ashlee Simpson & Pete Wendz Deny Reality TV Rumours

Ashlee Simpson has hit out at reports she and fiance Pete Wendz are planning to follow in the footsteps of her sister Jessica and star in a spin-off of U.S. reality TV show Newlyweds.

The 23-year-old Boyfriend hitmaker's father/manager Joe Simpson is reportedly in talks with MTV to create a copycat show for his younger daughter, to cash in on the pair's upcoming nuptials.

Jessica Simpson's 2003 show Newlyweds was a huge ratings winner - credited with reigniting the singer's flailing music career and prompting the demise of her marriage to former husband Nick Lachey.

A source tells U.S. magazine OK!, "Joe (Simpson) knows that no one cared about Jessica before her reality show, and he's hoping a show for Ashlee will have the same effect."

But a representative for Ashlee Simpson - who is busy denying rumours she is pregnant with Wentz' child - insist she has no intention of starring in a reality show.
