KEY POINTS:
In what may be one of the worst kept secrets in Hollywood history, it appears reality star Nicole Richie is indeed pregnant to Good Charlotte frontman Joel Madden.
Celebrity website TMZ reports it has independently confirmed 25-year-old Richie's pregnancy and says the pint-sized star is due in six months time.
Baby rumours have surrounded the couple for weeks now, after The Simple Life star was photographed leaving a fertility clinic.
Though the couple have continued to deny the rumours, TMZ reports it has confirmed Richie's pregnancy through "several sources".
Singer Christina Aguilera, also the subject of many baby rumours, has been outed as a mum-to-be by E! Entertainment channel. E! News confirmed today that the five-time Grammy winner and hubby Jordan Bratman are expecting their first child together.
Aguilera is scheduled to perform two concerts in Auckland on August 2nd and 3rd, when she will be several months pregnant.
