Pete Wentz: we’re honeymooning in our basement

Pete Wentz has revealed he’s having a rather unorthodox honeymoon with new wife Ashlee Simpson.

Speaking on Ryan Seacrest’s KIIS-FM radio show in Los Angeles yesterday, he joked that they’re spending their first days as husband and wife in the basement of their home: “We got some blow-up palm trees. A little fake-n-bake tanning booth.

“We’re eating DiGiorno’s pizza, getting in that tanning oven every once in a while, it’s great.

“We’re gonna save that 30 grand, you know?”

He added that the couple had signed a pre-nup before their wedding at the weekend and while Ashlee is now “legally a Wentz”, he doesn’t know what she’ll be calling herself publicly: “I don’t know what she’ll do with her stage name, that’s up to her. She hasn’t decided that.”

He also wouldn’t be drawn on the ongoing pregnancy rumours concerning the couple: “This baby has not been confirmed. The only thing I’m confirming now is that we’re in the basement on our honeymoon with these blow-up palm trees.”

The couple married at Ashlee’s parents home in Los Angeles on Saturday.
