Nicole Richie's pregnancy heals family rifts
Filed under: Bump Watch, Celeb Kids, Celeb Parents
There is nothing like a new baby to bring a broken family together. Pregnant celebrity Nicole Richie says her own impending motherhood has helped her to reestablish the bond with her biological mother. Richie was adopted by singer Lionel Richie as a young girl and has reportedly had very little contact with her biological parents over the years.
She tells Access Hollywood that "there was just something inside of me that felt a responsibility to mend any issues that I've had with my parents in the past, because, listen, I've put them through a lot."
I had a similar experience with my own pregnancy and then again with my daughter's. I think it is a necessary step in growing up to look back and review your own childhood through adult eyes. And I think Nicole's recognition of the importance of healing past hurts before trying to raise up a child is a good sign of her readiness to be a mother. I don't think we are looking at another Britney Spears here.
