Pete Wentz has praised the family of his wife Ashlee Simpson for their “welcoming” nature.

The Fall Out Boy bassist, who married Simpson back in May 2008, stated that her loved ones had worked to build a strong relationship with him, and expressed confidence that they would do the same for his sister-in-law Jessica’s new fiancé Eric Johnson.

He told People: “The great thing about being part of the Simpson family is that they’re really welcoming – you feel right at home right away. They’re my home away from home on the West Coast. It’s really easy and natural to transition into the family.”

The ‘I Don’t Care’ star also gushed about his wife’s ability to keep their marriage fresh and fulfilling.

“The great thing about Ashlee is that she finds the romantic moments for me in everything. We’ll be on the plane and she’ll remember that this is the anniversary of our first flight together. She can always find the romantic side of everything. We’re best friends so it’s just really easy.”
