About Nicole Richie
Prior to their breakup, Paris Hilton and Lionel Richie‘s daughter were introduced to us on The Simple Life. Nicole runs a clothing company called House of Harlow and occasionally appears on TV shows.
Nicole Richie, the formerly wild party girl and drug addict who referred to Paris Hilton as her BFF, appears to have had the career-altering transformation of the century, at least by Hollywood standards. And although the repentant mother of two certainly makes it appear that way, life is everything but straightforward for her.
The Richie Bunch
California, Berkeley; born Before relocating with musician Lionel Richie and his wife Brenda, Nicole called another couple her parents. When Nicole was around two years old, her her parents gave her to the Richies with the understanding that she would have greater possibilities with the famous couple. Nicole was formally adopted by Lionel and Brenda seven years later.
She began kindergarten in 1986 at The Buckley School, where she met a young blonde hottie with the last name Hilton. Following that, the two hit it off right away and began a bond that would later be made public to the entire nation.
Nicole was having a great time adventuring with her new friend, but her home life was becoming tense. Brenda left Lionel not long after it was revealed that he had an affair with another lady, which made front-page news. However, things improved when, as a teenager, she received two half-siblings as a result of Lionel remarrying.
Adopting A Simple Lifestyle
After graduating from Montclair College Preparatory School, she spent two years studying at the University of Arizona. When the socialite and her BFF Paris landed a reality series in 2003, education was put on hold. The two ended themselves living The Simple Life on a farm in Arkansas and had to (or were supposed to) trade in their Louis Vuitton bags for bundles of hay. The Simple Life: Interns, a spinoff of the series, was quickly taken up for a second season.
Nicole suffered some significant transformations as the series went on. She abandoned her untidy BoHo look in favor of a more streamlined approach, possibly as a result of living under the continual shadow of Paris. But that wasn’t the only thing she gave up; she also lost weight quickly, leading some to suspect an eating disorder, and her connection with Paris was clearly deteriorating. Before calling their quits for good, the two spent as little time together as possible while filming the fourth season of their show.
Nicole had a two-year relationship with the late DJ Adam Goldstein beginning in 2003. (DJ AM). Despite being engaged, the couple decided not to be married.
Love comes first, followed by pregnancy and marriage.
Following the success of The Simple Life, Nicole made the decision to write a book. The Truth About Diamonds, Nicole’s first book, chronicles the struggles of a rock star’s daughter with drug addiction and the hectic pace of Hollywood (sounds familiar). In the fall of 2010, she published Priceless as a sequel to her debut book.
But set aside fiction—when Nicole gave birth to her first kid, Harlow Winter Kate Richie-Madden in 2008, and to Sparrow James Midnight Madden in 2009 with her partner, Good Charlotte frontman Joel Madden, she was back in the real world. The pair began dating in 2006, got engaged in early 2010, and was married in December at Lionel Richie’s 28-room Los Angeles mansion.
But Nicole is just as well-known for her bohemian style as she was for her time as a party queen. When she introduced her apparel label Winter Kate and jewelry and accessories line House of Harlow 1960, she made the decision to capitalize on her image as a trendsetter.
Nicole appeared to be simply another socialite, but she managed to make her life unique by becoming a responsible, fashionable mother and, later, a bride. She is the mother of Harlow and Sparrow Madden and runs a business.
“Clothing was something I always wanted to do. I’ve been pulling tear sheets from magazines since I was a little girl.”
