Richie said to be engaged
Pregnant socialite Nicole Richie agreed to marry boyfriend Joel Madden on Thursday, a US radio DJ reports.
Hot 99.5 morning show host Kane made the announcement at a Friday party in Virginia, where Madden performed with his band Good Charlotte.
Following the set, Kane told guests, "He got engaged yesterday. Congratulations, Joel!"
And despite receiving no reaction from Madden, the DJ is sticking to his story, telling People.com, he offered his congratulations to the rocker earlier in the night and "He said, 'Thank you so much.'"
Kane adds: "They're very excited about the baby and the wedding. They want to keep their personal life personal."
It seems the secret is already out though - while quizzing Madden about his relationship with Richie on his show on Thursday, U.S. TV personality Regis Philbin asked, "You're going to present her, maybe, with… A little ring, or something?"
A shocked Madden replied: "I was hoping it would be a surprise, but now…"
Richie is four and a half months pregnant with her first child with Madden.
