Pregnant Nicole Richie adds fuel to the existing speculation that she and partner Joel Madden are expecting a baby boy as she has been claimed planning to name the infant she is carrying after late Michael Jackson, who is her godfather. "Nicole is devastated by Michael's death. She loved him and it happened so suddenly. She wasn't planning on naming the baby after him, but she thinks it's fitting now that he's gone," a source says as quoted by Star Magazine.
There has been no comment made by Nicole herself or Joel regarding the report. The celebrity pair, who has been together since 2006, is expected to welcome the arrival of their second child next month. The forthcoming baby will join older sister Harlow Winter Kate Madden, who was born in January last year.
Nicole Richie and Joel Madden announced in February 2009 that they are expecting their second child. In a short message posted on the official website of his band Good Charlotte, Joel wrote, "Better than winning an OSCAR! I am so happy to tell everyone that Harlow is going to be a big sister! God has truly blessed my family. Hope your [sic] all feeling as good as I am right now."
Two months ago, report sparked that Nicole and Joel are expecting a baby boy as a friend of the couple claimed the expectant parents bought blue-colored baby gear. Besides, Nicole was also said referring to the baby she is carrying as "he". Later that month, Star Magazine ran a story that Nicole and Joel will name their rumored son Baron. In fact, neither Nicole nor Joel has confirmed the sex of their second child.
