Nicole Richie on Her Family and New Dog!

The reality star swung by to catch Ellen up on her family, what her children are preparing for Halloween, and their adorable new puppy!

[@isaacrichards9448]

Nicole has this personality that’s addicting. She’s real, no BS! “Rock on Sista’”.

[@callmecarpio]

Love Nicole so much! So genuine!!! One of a kind! And she's really funny!

[@ReginaFilangy]

I fucking love Nicole Richie!! She seems so down to earth💜

[@bychantal8878]

[@AJkiwi14]

It's nice to see her like this. Happy, and with a great family. I remember her "Simple Life" days with Paris like it was yesterday. Man has she changed.. in a good way of course :)

I'm so glad she's not an anorexic Paris Hilton follower anymore. She looks absolutely gorgeous now and now we know that she IS intelligent.

[@zaboutata]

I have always liked her, even when she was out of control and was friends with Paris Hilton (ew!)

[@sugarvealchop]

What happened to her toy dogs, if I remember correctly, one is named "Foxy"

[@izaccy]

Her Dad and mom had intervention with her, after someone close to her died of drugs he talked about it in an interview..

[@juancacd]

Wow great to see her all settle on life with such a great family and not bitching around. I love Paris but she need to follow her ex BFF example

[@89Judy89]

[@GoldGroove96]
