To be honest, I thought Nicole Richie and Joel Madden were already married. They’ve been together for three years and have two kids together: Harlow (2) and Sparrow (5 months). But according to Us Weekly, the pair has just gotten engaged (the beans were spilled during a Letterman taping yesterday).
Joel also Tweeted about the upcoming nuptuals: “Yep. i’m engaged. Very happy. Yeah we’ve been engaged for a while so your all kind of late on that. But Thanks for the hooplah all the same,” he wrote. “P.s. thats why i love my family and friends. None of them are sources. All good tight lipped people who let us enjoy it! Thanks everybody.” Kind of an odd comment. I guess I wouldn’t want my friends and family blabbing to the press about me, but at the same time, when you get engaged, don’t you want to go around and shout it from rooftops? Write stuff in the sky like Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carrey? But then again, Nicole (28) and Joel (30) obviously haven’t been in a big hurry to get hitched.
A source said, “Nicole and Joel are in the process of planning the wedding. She’s very involved in every detail. She’s thrilled.” The couple plans to tie the knot in the summer.
