The couple has been dogged by allegations of a break-up for months, andSimpson-Wentz was forced to dismiss the reports in March (09), with a spokesperson insisting "Everything is fine in their world".

But the rumors refuse to go away and Simpson-Wentz is reportedly infuriating the Fall Out Boy rocker with her recent partying and drunken behavior.

She hit the headlines last week after launching a verbal attack on Wentz's ex-girlfriend, actress Michelle Trachtenberg, at a Los Angeles bash on 1 June (09).

She subsequently apologized for the outburst, claiming there was a "misunderstanding" and that the two women "remain on good terms".

Sources close to the couple allege the bust-up wasn't the first time Simpson-Wentz has unleashed her fury.
