For the most part, Nicole Richie seems happy, strong and healthy lately, which is why silly rumors like this one bother me so much. The National Enquirer is claiming that Nicole is on the verge of a motherhood meltdown and that the stress of all the changes she’s experienced lately has put her on the verge of a breakdown.

“The slightest bit of stress turns into a huge emotional ordeal,” their source says. “Joel is trying to be patient with Nicole even though her meltdowns often do end in arguments. But he understands she’s gone through some very serious emotional and physical changes — she got pregnant, found sobriety, moved in with Joel and became a mother — all in a very short time, and that’s a lot for anyone to handle.”

I don’t doubt that these changes have been difficult and that Nicole gets emotional sometimes and that her and Joel fight sometimes, but why do the gossip sites need to paint these scenarios as end-of-the-world fiascos?

“Nicole feels like her life is in a constant state of emotional turmoil right now, and when one crying episode ends, another one seems to begin,” their source continues. “Everything is happening so quickly that it’s almost getting to be too much for her to handle.”

However, the source says there’s nothing to worry about–Joel and Nicole are very much in love and are looking forward to a long future together. And I bet they’re so thankful they have friends like this source.

On another gossipy note, Star Magazine is reporting that Nicole and Joel are planning a three day wedding that will cost over $2 million dollars. It’s supposed to be June 27-29 and will include a Pretty in Pink-themes bachelorette party for Nicole.

Nicole and Joel are planning a $2 million three-day wedding. It should happen on June 27-29. There will be a Pretty In Pink-themed bachelorette party and the bride will wear a champagne-hued gown. Considering how many wedding and break-up rumors there are about Nicole and Joel, I’ll only believe this when I see pictures.
