Socialite & Reality star Nicole Richie & fiancé Good Charlotte singer Joel Madden go for a stroll hand in hand. Even though they are holding hands, they look kind of distant at the same time.

Today a Los Angeles judge has extended Nicole Richie’s probation by a year.

Nicole, 28, is still on probation from her DUI in 2006, when she was arrested for driving the wrong way on an L.A. freeway. Nicole later admitted to smoking marijuana and taking Vicodin before driving. For this offense she spent a whopping 82 minutes in jail.

Her lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley said Nicole was given a leave of absence from her alcohol education classes while she raised her kids, Harlow 2, and Sparrow, 9 months. The terms of her probation included taking alcohol ed classes.

Richie’s probation has been extended until March 2011, but if Nicole finishes her classes early, the probation will end.

Stone washed jeans! Ha!

Though the legendary Chateau Marmont Hotel is rarely referred to as a family-friendly place, it was the perfect setting for Hollywood stylist Andrea Lieberman’s Marie Antoinette-themed baby shower. Nicole Richie, Ellen Pompeo and Gwen Stefani were among the glam guests who gathered inside the hotel’s Bungalow 1 for afternoon tea, hosted by Margaret Maldonado and jeweler Mouawad. “Andrea is like a New York version of me, but way cooler and more talented,” said California girl Stefani (in Diane von Furstenberg). “The fact that we’re pregnant at the same time is such a gift.”
