Nicole Richie Confirms Pregnancy

The star of the television series Simple Life revealed the news during an interview with ABC.  Richie is expecting a baby with her rocker boyfriend, Joel Madden.

During the interview with Diane Sawyer, which will air on Thursday and Friday, Richie said, "Yes, I am. We are. I’m almost four months."

This was the first time that the adopted daughter of singer Lionel Richie confirmed earlier reports of a pregnancy.  She also discussed her recent sentencing to four days in jail for driving while intoxicated.  Richie said, "I have a responsibility and it’s something that I did wrong, and if I could personally apologize to every single person that has lost a loved one from drunk driving I would."
