Nicole Richie | Daughter of Lionel Richie and Brenda Harvey (adoptive parents)

The reality TV series The Simple Life has given birth to Nicole Richie’s career in Hollywood. She was notoriously known for her friendship with controversial socialite Paris Hilton. When the show ended, she continued on to become a judge in Fashion Star from 2012 to 2103 and then later appeared on Candidly Nicole. In the later years of her career, she stepped out of the limelight and now only gives carefully curated interviews. However, it seems that she learned a lot of lessons from when she was a major celebrity.

As someone born into old money, and with Lionel Richie and Brenda Harvey as her adoptive parents, Nicole was used to an extravagant life. She knew that her childhood was unusual as she was adopted. The TV personality was initially fostered by the couple and then had their lawyers finalize the adoption. When remembering her childhood, Nicole only has good memories.
