Ashlee Simpson Changes Name
Pop star Ashlee Simpson is officially changing her name to ‘Wentz’ after her May 17 wedding to Fall Out Boy rocker Pete Wentz.
The possibly preggers Simpson will no longer go by her family name, either in private or the public eye, as she feels it’s “right” to uphold the age-old tradition of changing names when entering into wedlock.
“I think that [changing your name is] something that a woman should do when they’re marrying a man,” she told People. “It’s a tradition that I think is a great tradition.”
In private, Ashlee will go by the name Ashlee Wentz, but will keep her maiden name, in the form of Simpson-Wentz, for all professional endeavours — something which new husband Pete Wentz is over the moon about.
“Oh man, I was like upgrade me! You know what I’m saying?” Pete said. “The Wentz family, our Christmas card just got upgraded!”
Wentz added: “It feels insane. It feels unreal.”
