Wow. Wow. Wow. Nicole Richie/Madden gave birth to her second child, a little boy named…wait for it, Sparrow James Midnight Madden.
Looks like little Harlow has a new play pal and Nicole couldn’t be happier.
This news is a blessing for both Nicole and hubby, Joel Madden. Especially after the recent tragedy with the death of Nicole’s ex, DJ AM. Apparently, Nicole was so distraught by the news that she almost went into early labor which could have had devastating results! But alas, all is well with little Sparrow and Nicole is happily settling into her new role as a mother of two.
It’s so hard to believe that this is the same Nicole that for years struggled with substance abuse and threw raging temper tantrums when she didn’t get her way. She has come so far and seems so happy and healthy! It is so wonderful to see her blossom into a grounded young woman who seems so at peace with herself and her life.
She has certainly grown into the role model that Hollywood is so desperately lacking during a time when it is the ‘party girl’ who holds the title.
Don’t think that just because Nicole is not staying out to the wee hours of the night exploring altered states of reality, that she isn’t staying active. Nicole has been super busy enjoying the success of her jewelry line, House of Harlow, and also designed a maternity collection for Pea in a Pod.
When she isn’t too busy with her role as a mom/designer, Nicole is busy lending a helping hand to a plethora of charities. The satisfaction she gets these days from helping others is more than she could have ever experienced during her stint as a party-holic.
