"Hopefully mine and Nick's story will continue for the rest of our lives， like what we vowed， through sickness and in health，" said Simpson， who famously professed that she remained a virgin until she got married.辛普森說(shuō)：“希望我和尼克的童話就像我們的婚禮誓言一樣會(huì)持續(xù)一生，不管是疾病還是健康?！?辛普森曾眾所周知聲稱自己在結(jié)婚前是處女。
The couple wed in October 2002， back when they were known simply as pop singers.

The couple's reality show， "Newlyweds： Nick & Jessica，" which chronicled their daily lives in a new California home， turned them into stars.

Simpson's star status has begun to outshine Lachey's.

Lachey， whose solo album has had disappointing sales， appeared in some episodes of the sitcom "Charmed."辛普森的明星地位逐漸開始超越拉基。她在今年夏天的熱門影片“正義先鋒”中飾演黛西。杜克。她還是“甜點(diǎn)”品牌包括有香味的潤(rùn)膚露的一美容產(chǎn)品系列的代言人。 相比而言，拉基只在情景劇“Charmed”幾集里參加演出，唱片業(yè)績(jī)甚不佳。
Besides appearing in "Newlyweds，" the couple entertained U.S. troops earlier this year in the ABC special "Nick & Jessica's Tour of Duty，" and last year they hosted the ABC variety special "Nick & Jessica's Family Christmas."
