If knowing the details of Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson’s sex life wasn’t enough for you, here’s more juice for you. Breast milk, to be more specific.
Speaking on Sirius’ “The Monday Mash Up” show, Wentz described her milk as “weird” and “soury,” adding, “The baby [newborn Bronx Mowgli] loves it, it’s the only thing he’s had a chance to have.”
In a rather touching display of spousal sympathy, Wentz revealed he too piled on the pregnancy pounds while Ashlee was expecting.
“I gained 10 pounds at least,” he said. “I usually hang out around 135, 134, I go up to about 140, and when I hit 148, I get fat face.
I’m working out a little bit, trying … I mean last night I decided to eat Virgil’s [BBQ] at midnight which is never a good idea … I’m feeling that a little bit today. For the most part, we’re going on walks – that kind of stuff. I think it comes off easier for her because she gets to breastfeed and I don’t have the luxury of doing that.”
Pete is doing his absolute best to come across as a great father, and for a while there he was winning me over, but his breastfeeding-as-luxury comment kind of put me off again. Pete, breastfeeding means getting up all night, it can hurt, and it can be inconvenient (so can bottles, I know). Even as a power-feeder who fed all my kids for months, I can’t say I ever found it a luxury. For me, the first few weeks of my child’s life I just felt like a giant milking cow, operating on little sleep and auto-pilot.
Ashlee obviously isn’t enamored with Pete’s loud mouth lately – at a recent Fall Out Boy show he admitted that she was less than impressed, and that she was threatening to go on radio herself and pay him back.

Ugh, he is so fugly he looks like a muppet. Please do us a favor, just disappear!
I bet he wears her underwear under his clothes.
I think he was joking about the breastfeeding…I thought it was funny
Maybe Ashley should let him wear one of her nursing bras and pretend with a cabbage patch doll. I bet he’d relish every second.
I’m not sure why, but I find him extremely hot….
I guess experiences probably vary a bit. I have nursed every one of my 5 children for at least a year each. In the beginning, it is a godsend. We co-sleep so maybe that is a big factor in it.
I am never much for the mommy wars (the whole judging the worth of a mother by her ability/willingness to breastfeed). I usually tell bottle feeding mothers (when it comes up) that I am too lazy to bottle feed:)
That said, as for the taste of breastmilk. Maybe she has a weird diet but in my experience, breastmilk tends to taste sweet. Most people who I know who have tasted it say it tastes like cantelope juice.
He kind of does have case of fatface in that picture! lol!
Oh yeah, this has ALL the signs of a healthy, successful marriage…
They might as well start booking therapy sessions for that poor kid right now, because he’s going to need it. His first word will probably be “Prozac,” which they’ll have to crush up and mix into his applesauce even before he can eat solids.
I think the guy is just being honest and not puting on a show for people. He is stating how he feels..whats the big deal?
I know that every woman’s breast milk is supposed to have a different taste, but everybody I’ve ever known to try it has always said it tasted sweet. My husband and I tried mine and it was sweet. I would be pissed if he told the world it was soury and weird.
He doesn’t think before he speaks (one of my worst habits) you were so right about the breastfeeding not being a luxury. She could be one of those unlucky women who don’t lose a single pound while BFing like me! I lost 7 pounds after I quit.
I know what he means by fat face and he does have one. He’s lucky he can get all the way up to 140. I hit 120 and I get one.
In Pete’s defense regarding “luxury” of breastfeeding, any mother that has nursed knows that it is the quickest way to shrink your uterus back into shape & lose weight quickly. I think that is what he was referring to. Pete shares way to much. He is honest & excited, but, way, way immature. Pete, shut up, grow up & enjoy your jungle boy.
They always look so…greasy.
Ha HA! Pete got fat-faced…it matches his fat tongue perhaps?
Best advertisement for condoms i ever seen. If she had made him wear a condom she would be dating some hunky footy jock like her sister, not married with a disney charactor for a son, and a smurf for a husband!
I think they’re both great people. Kind and loving, friendly and open minded, not sarcastic, cynical, negative and bitter. God bless them! I think their baby is lucky to have such sweet parents.
LOL @ SixxKitty — that was too funny!
This guy looks like the bastard lovechild of Anthony Keidis and Jeremy Piven.
