Nicole Richie and Joel Madden recently made an offer on a home in a posh, gated Southern California community only to be denied by the would-be neighbors.

When Nicole Richie got the news that she and her fiance and rocker baby-daddy were denied by residents who were concerned about celebrity news photographers hovering around their homes, “Nicole was livid because she loved the house,” a source tells Us Weekly. “She thinks it’s a BS reason, but she couldn’t fight it.”

Still, being dismissed from the private community hasn’t put a damper on Joel Madden and Nicole Richie’s growing excitement over their upcoming event.

Another source says that Nicole Richie is planning a baby shower for the end of November. And Joel Madden expects fatherhood to have a positive impact on many parts of his life, including his songwriting.

“I’m sure it will inspire me,” he said. “Yeah, I’m sure it will.”

Hopefully it will also inspire Nicole. To eat.

Celebrity gossip rags in Great Britain must be having a blast these days.

First, of course, Heather Mills went insane on national TV.

Next, Sir Paul McCartney started making out with Nancy Shevell all over the place.

Now, Prince Harry and his girlfriend of more than three years, Chelsy Davy, have broken up, according to reports in London newspapers.

What caused the split? Supposedly, Davy was upset with the prince’s playboy lifestyle, including his attending the rugby world cup final in Paris in October instead of celebrating her birthday with her.

As People magazine states, the couple met during Harry’s gap year between school and joining the army. They spent a lot of time in Africa, camping out and watching the wildlife on exotic safaris in countries such as Botswana.
