Well, US Magazine thinks so.
After several weeks of Nicole Richie hiding her stomach from photographers, the is-she-or-isn⿿t-she-rumors can be put to rest: Us has confirmed via multiple sources that Richie is more than 12 weeks pregnant with her and boyfriend Joel Madden⿿s first child.
⿿She is extremely excited right now,⿿ a source close to the star tells Us. Richie, 25, shared the good news with her mom Brenda, and close friends like Mischa Barton, in early May, adds the Richie pal, after a pregnancy test came up positive.
And the pregnancy isn⿿t the only cause for celebration. A source says Madden, 28, along with a few friends and his twin brother Benji, recently went shopping for an engagement ring.
And the twins⿿ older brother Josh Madden tells Us, ⿿Nicole is awesome. I would love for them to get married!⿿ Both families are thrilled about the couple⿿s baby joy: ⿿Everyone⿿s happy, everyone⿿s good, everyone⿿s getting along⿿ a source tells Us.
But Nicole can⿿t hide her bump forever. The Simple Life star is due in court on July 11 to answer DUI charges stemming from her December 2006 arrest. If found guilty, she faces 90 days to one year in jail because of a previous DUI conviction in 2003.
