Ashlee Simpson & Pete Wentz's Secret Basement Honeymoon

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz are spending their initial days as man and wife hiding out in a basement to avoid the paparazzi.

The newlyweds, who married in a secret ceremony in Encino, California on Saturday, told wedding guests they were heading off on honeymoon to "scramble" the media.

However, Mr and Mrs. Wentz are actually shacked up somewhere underground.

Wentz reveals: "We're in the basement of the house. We wanted everybody to think we were going on a honeymoon... We've got some blow-up palm trees down here... a little fake and bake tanning booth.

"It's gonna look like we went on a private jet somewhere and we're gonna save that $30,000.

"We're eating DiGiorno's pizza, getting into that tanning bed every once in a while, it's great."

Wentz and Simpson decided to try and fool everyone over their honeymoon when so many details of their wedding plans were leaked to the press.

The Fall Out Boy star says: "You can't trust anyone; people were letting out all kinds of details - we had a plan that we wanted to do it in San Diego and it completely got out so we had to do it in the most secure place that we could do it."
