Marriage Troubles For Nick Lachey And Jessica Simpson?

Jessica Simpson’s marriage to 98 Degrees star Nick Lachey could be in trouble, if a friend of the couple’s claim to The New York Post is to be believed. “Nick is very upset right now,” the pal revealed. “He feels like he is trying to have his own career and Jessica’s parents give him no respect. They don’t treat him well. The MTV cameras [for the show 'Newlyweds'] are going to go away soon and when they do, Nick wants a break.” So does this mean Lachey will separate from Simpson? “He needs some alone time,” the pal responded. A rep for Lachey said, “That’s completely false!”
