Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey issued a statement Wednesday denying they have split -- "Nick and Jessica have not separated," said the statement. "Rumors to the contrary are simply not true."
For the past year, rumors have dogged Lachey and Simpson, who will celebrate their third anniversary Oct. 26. Magazines have run pictures of Simpson without her wedding ring
Gossip industry insiders say the recent rumors are retaliation for the Jessica Simpson's exclusive contract with OK! magazine reports Radar Magazine
The $200,000, 2-year deal, set up in August by her stage dad, Joe Simpson, reportedly locked the Simpson into a six-cover commitment, and prohibited her from giving other magazines access.
Us Weekly's "SPLIT!" cover story, pins blame for the couple's troubles solely on Jessica. The roundly denied "scoop" was far from exclusive, however - Life & Style carries essentially the same story, but with better detail, including a bit about Simpson breaking down in tears on an American Airlines flight post-breakup reports Radar Magazine
