Ashlee Simpson-Wentz says it doesn’t matter if Bronx, her son with rocker hubby Pete Wentz, decides to go into show business someday.

“I’m all about whatever it is Bronx likes to do and wants to do,” Ash told E! News at Saturday’s Melrose Place party in L.A. “Definitely going to follow what it is that he loves and hope to be a great parent in that way.”

As for the return of Melrose, she said, “It’s great to have some of the old cast members but at the same time, it’s definitely a new show and hopefully we’ll entertain the previous Melrose Place fans.”

One of those former stars is Laura Leighton, who reprises her role of Sydney Andrews. Colin Eggelsfield, who plays her love interest, Auggie Kirkpatrick, says things are gonna get hot between them.

How so? Read on to get the steamy details…

“Let’s just say when my mom watches one of my scenes with Sydney, she’ll have to leave the room,” Eggelsfield told us at last week’s InStyle Summer Soiree event in West Hollywood.

So what does that mean, exactly?

“Laura’s character and mine are both recovering alcoholics and we meet in AA,” Eggelsfield said. “Our characters end up hooking up, and Laura guided me through the filming process on set.”

“Laura’s like, ‘Is it OK if I grab you here?’” Eggelsfield continued with a laugh. “‘I’m going to throw you against the wall here, I’m going to put my elbow behind you to brace your impact, and then when I throw you down on the couch and lift your leg up, is it OK if I go this far? Or how flexible are you?’ She’s a great tutor.”
