Nicole Richie and Joel Madden’s wedding might be sooner than expected – the socialite-turned-jewellery designer is already calling the rocker her husband.
Appearing on late-night U.S. chat show Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Thursday, Richie refused to correct the host when he kept referring to the Good Charlotte star as her husband.
When Kimmel quipped, “Thankyou for being here on your husband’s 31st birthday…” Richie smiled and responded, “I’m so excited to be spending it with you.” The comedian later referred to Madden’s twin brother Benji as her brother-in-law.
The host later corrected himself by explaining Richie is engaged to the rocker.
At the Oscars on Sunday, where Madden was the house DJ, Richie was asked about her wedding plans and joked, “It’s tomorrow… We actually wanted to do it here.”
Nicole Richie has joked fiance Joel Madden has no say in their forthcoming nuptials.
The reality TV star and the Good Charlotte rocker – who have two children, Harlow, two, and five-month-old Sparrow – announced their engagement last month but admit Nicole is the one in charge of the plans.
Talking about the wedding, Joel said: “It’s the same thing as our engagement, we’re kind of doing it at our own pace. We have no idea right now.”
Nicole then quipped: “Like he has any say.”
The couple are also disagreeing what kind of wedding they want.
Joel added: “According to her we’ll have a really big wedding. According to me, it will be really small.”
Nicole and Joel attended last night’s Oscars together and joked they were set to tie the knot imminently.
When asked about the date of their big day, Nicole deadpanned: “It’s tomorrow.”
Joel – who performed a DJ set at the ceremony – quipped: “I thought it would be cool to do it here.”
Although their engagement was announced last month, the couple had secretly been engaged for some time.
Joel tweeted recently: “Yep. I’m engaged. Very happy.
“Yeah we’ve been engaged for a while so your all kind of late on that. But Thanks for the hooplah all the same.”
The couple denied that they had plans to marry as late as last year, and were in no plans to rush into tying the knot.
Nicole said: “One day I would love to get married. It’s not something we’re talking about right now. If my kids ask me to get married, I’d get married.”

Nicole Richie is getting married.
The socialite confirmed yesterday that she is officially engaged to her rocker boyfriend Joel Madden – with whom she has daughter Harlow, two, and five-month-old son Sparrow – when she appeared on ‘The Late Show With David Letterman’, showing off a large engagement ring.
She then joined friends at New York restaurant Abe and Arthurs, where she was overheard talking about her impending nuptials.
A source said: “She was glowing. She was telling her table how happy she was.”
Good Charlotte singer Joel, 30, later confirmed the news – revealing they had managed to keep their engagement secret for some time.
He tweeted: “Yep. I’m engaged. Very happy.
“Yeah we’ve been engaged for a while so your all kind of late on that. But Thanks for the hooplah all the same.”
The couple denied that they had plans to marry as late as last year, and were in no plans to rush into tying the knot.
Nicole said: “One day I would love to get married. It’s not something we’re talking about right now. If my kids ask me to get married, I’d get married.
“I think for both of us, we are going to do it because we want to, not because that’s what you do. We’re going to do it when the time’s right.”
However, it has been reported that the couple are planning to marry this summer and wedding plans are already well under way.
Nicole Richie takes up so much room in bed partner Joel Madden sleeps on the sofa
The 27-year-old star – who has 23-month-old daughter Harlow and three-month-old son Sparrow with Joel – loves stretching out in her sleep, leaving no room for the Good Charlotte rocker.
A source said: “She takes up all the space. Joel often wakes up to find himself pushed to the side of the bed, while Nicole is asleep smack dab in the middle. She turns herself into crazy positions.”
However, Joel is more than understanding about his girlfriend’s habit and is prepared to do anything to ensure she gets enough rest.
The source added: “He either crashes in the spare room or falls asleep on the couch. He’s so understanding!”
Nicole has admitted to being aware of how annoying her nocturnal habits are for the singer.
She wrote on twitter: “Just heard that I’ve developed a new habit of sleeping diagonally. Poor Joel!”
