While reps for the Texan twosome have been busy denying the split, a source close to the Romo camp said that their relationship has hit a “rough patch” but might not be totally over just yet.

After all, he apparently already had plans to get down on one knee for the songstress, and just recently she referred to him as her “future husband” in Glamour magazine.

According to our inside source, Tony was organizing an “intimate dinner for friends and family” to take place in Texas within the next few weeks in anticipation of announcing his engagement to the eldest Simpson sister.

“Every couple has their problems; we’re hoping that they’ll have a break and work it all out,” the source said. Calls to Simpson’s rep were not returned.

So while Romo’s initial matrimonial plans seem to have been put on the back-burner, Jess and Tony are apparently still “talking.”

Tony Romo and Jessica Simpson may be done, but her dad still wants the quarterback to “support the family” at Ashlee’s weekend wedding.

“Joe has called Tony and asked him to come to show support for the wedding,” a source tells Usmagzine.com.

It’s unclear if Romo accepted Joe’s request, but he’s scheduled to fly into L.A. over the weekend.

Romo wasn’t present at a bachelor party Joe threw for Pete and a few of his pals at Mr. Chow’s on Thursday night. E! reports a steady supply of beer and wine was brought to their table. After the celebration, Joe picked up the $1,000 tab!

(Back at Ashlee’s parents’ Encino, California, home, Jessica and mom Tina threw a bachelorette party for Ashlee that E! reports was a “mellow affair.” About a dozen of Ashlee’s closest family members and friends attended the backyard event, decorated with balloons.)

Ashlee (who is pregnant) and her fiancé Pete Wentz are tying the knot on Saturday. Big white tents were being set up at her parents’ home on Thursday.

“Proper invites have not been sent out but instead guests have been given a save the date notice,” a source told Us.

The rehearsal dinner – described by the source as “an intimate affair” for “family and close friends only” – will take place on Friday.

While rumors and reports of a split between Jessica Simpson and Tony Romo have been floating around for several days, neither the pop star nor her quarterback cutie have come forward to put a stop to them — even her dad Joe Simpson told OK! yesterday that he has no idea what’s going on with the couple.

However, a source close to Jess not only confirms to OK! that the pair are “on a break” from each other, but also says this is nothing new for the couple.

“They have broke up and got back together countless times,” the Simpson family insider explains to OK!. Perhaps, as another source has told OK! in the past, it’s because Tony has never viewed this relationship seriously.

And now, with Jess going on nationally syndicated TV earlier this week, gushing about how she’s looking to get hitched and start a family — just like her little sister Ashlee Simpson, who is slated to wed Fall Out Boy bassist Pete Wentz this weekend — the insider tells OK! that the Employee of the Month star is putting down her foot and delivering an ultimatum to Tony.

“If Tony doesn’t attend Ashlee and Pete’s wedding this weekend,” say the source, “She will never forgive him. If he doesn’t show they are over for good.”

Looks like Jessica Simpson could be attending her sister’s wedding alone this weekend.

The singer and her Dallas Cowboys quarterback beau Tony Romo have reportedly split, sources told the Dallas Morning News.

Despite rep denials, “two people close to Tony and Jess have told me that the glam couple is splitsville, kaput, over, put a fork in it,” columnist Alan Peppard wrote.

The new issue of Us Weekly reports that over the weekend, Romo partied at Chicago club Manor with a bevy of blondes and announced to pals: “We are broken up.”

(To add insult to injury: Simpson had so much to drink the day ex John Mayer’s public debut with Jennifer Aniston that she had to call her mom for a ride home from a L.A. Mexican restaurant, Us reports in its latest issue.)

A rep for the pair insisted to Us earlier this week that the singer is “very happy with Tony…they are both happy together.”

But when the Morning News caught up with Romo at the Cowboys Golf Club in Grapevine, Texas, he fumed, “I’m not talking about Jessica.”

Just last month Simpson was referring to Romo as her “future husband” and he was seen ring-shopping.

The pair hooked up in November.

Despite her ditzy hollywood image, Jessica Simpson insists all she really wants is to get married and have kids. Could the bombshell’s fantasy possibly include her current squeeze Tony Romo?

The singer/actress opens up to Extra about her romance with the Dallas Cowboys QB and says that, in spite of reports claiming the two have broken up, Jess and her QB cutie are very much in love. So does she hope to walk down the aisle again–possibly with Tony?

“Absolutely. I want to be married and have kids,” she says. “I have a future ahead.”

Last year, Simpson was branded a jinx by Cowboy fans after Romo failed to win the NFL playoffs. Jessica’s response? “Crazy what everybody said,” adding, “I didn’t feel I needed to comment on it. I didn’t know that me wearing a number nine jersey would ever have that much power.”

Jessica’s good friend and stylist to the stars Ken Paves says Tony gets his stamp of approval, exclaiming “Tony is a great guy.”

Paves recently teamed up with Jess to create a line of salon hair extensions called Hairdo. Simpson says she loves spending time with her b.f.f. hair guru.

“He’s just so busy so it’s fun when he’s in town and I’m in town,” she says. “He lives right up the street from me so he can pick me up and we can talk about boys together.”

While her little sister’s wedding plans remain shrouded in secrecy, Jessica Simpson revealed one detail: She’s the maid of honor!

“Of course,” the 27-year-old told People when asked if she’ll be standing next to Ashlee on her big day.

Performing in front of nearly 35,000 people at Camp Pendleton Thursday night, Jessica was in fine form for the troops, belting out “These Boots Are Made For Walkin’ ” at a three-hour concert that also featured Snoop Dogg, Janet Jackson, Ne-Yo, and Pamela Anderson. Taking the stage in a skin-tight red top, jeans and black stiletto heels, Jessica was greeted by howls and hoorahs.

Little sister Ashlee, 23, and fiancé Pete Wentz (of Fall Out Boy fame) have kept mum on their wedding plans – and her pregnancy.

But she can’t help gushing about her engagement.

While promoting her new album, Bittersweet World, in London, Ashlee proudly showed off her ring on a British chat show saying, “He did a great job.” As for her husband-to-be? “I got a good one.”

Jessica Simpson has taken aim at movie critics who call her films flops.

The pop star/actress insists box office sales show she’s actually a good luck charm for movies.

She protests, “For people to say Employee of The Month was a flop is ludicrous. It made the money back - that’s not a flop. For people to say The Dukes of Hazzard was a flop - it opened at $30 million. If these movies are flops, why would I still make them?”

Unfortunately for Simpson, her last film, Major Movie Star, really was a flop - in America.

After opening in just eight cinemas in Texas in December, the film was released on DVD. It has since become an unexpected hit in Russia.
