Nicole Richie pregnancy rumor

Nicole Richie pregnancy rumor
There’s a rumor that originated in Star Magazine the Nicole Richie is pregnant again. There have also been stories claiming that she’s trying to get pregnant and that she and Joel want to give little cutie Harlow, nearly six months old, a sibling. Star’s report seems to rely entirely on the loose clothing and comfortable footwear she’s been wearing lately, though, and we learned the hard way with Kate Hudson that consistenly wearing loose clothing does not a pregnancy make.

I would like to use this opportunity to brag that we were the first ones to call Nicole Richie pregnant with her first child last year. She was wearing a clinging dress at that point, so maybe she is pregnant again and is trying to hide it with flowing tops and dresses. I’m not quite sold by Star’s observer-only story:

A source told America’s Star magazine: “Nicole is dying to have a sibling for Harlow who is close in age. She doesn’t want them to be more than two years apart, so that they can be best friends forever.”

Nicole - who shot to fame when she starred alongside best friend Paris Hilton in MTV reality show ‘The Simple Life’ - first sparked reports she may soon be adding to her family when she was spotted wearing a flowing lilac ‘maternity-style’ top.

An onlooker said: “The top was not something Nicole usually wears. She ordinarily goes for tight T-shirts and vest tops. The other unusual thing was that she was wearing comfy sheepskin boots and not her usual heels - the boots definitely looked like something a pregnant woman would wear.”

That’s not the most convincing story, but I have to admit that it did occur to me when I saw the last dress Richie wore to an event. That’s her style, though, and Paris Hilton is always wearing loose bold print dresses like that. It’s not true that Richie usually wears tight tops.

Here are a bunch of recent pictures of Nicole so you can judge for yourself, but I say these reports are premature. At driving school on 6/25 she wore a tank top and there was nothing that would suggest she’s pregnant. This was the only time in the last month that I can find that she didn’t wear a loose shirt, though, so you can see how Star might jump to that conclusion.
