Papa Joe Ruining Ashlee Simpson & Pete Wentz’s Reconciliation Hopes?

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz have been spending a lot of time together recently and hopes are growing for a reconciliation, but Hollywood Life reports Ashlee’s meddling father Joe is getting in the way by pitching a reality show about Ashlee’s single life. “Pete would love to just concentrate on a life with Ashlee and Bronx,” a source told the web site. “When they got married he was at the height of his career, he was a big bassist, and he feels like the couple never had a real chance together. It’s hard to pitch a show about Ashlee’s single life when she’s in the midst of reconciling with her ex-husband.” When asked to comment about their report, Joe said “Not correct. Sorry.”
