Evan Ross and Ashlee Simpson have gone public as a couple.
Last night, the pair attended their first event together in N.Y. City. Dating rumors circulated last month, when Simpson and Diana Ross’ son first stepped out.
Ross and Simpson, who reportedly met at a Hollywood club back in the day, walked into the launch of the Jessica Simpson Fall 2013 Campaign hand-in-hand.
A source close to Ashlee says the new relationship was a long time coming for the two: “It helps that they were friends first. They have a long bond.”
Simpson dated Boardwalk Empire star Vincent Piazza for years, and prior to that was married to Pete Wentz, with whom she has a son Bronx Mowgli.
