Inside Nicole Richie and Joel Madden's Family World

“We got lucky with our kids,” Joel said on The Drew Barrymore Show in November 2023. “They’re easy. I always tell my kids, you make it so easy to be a dad. They’re just good kids. They really are. They’re great, and I think they’re like their mom.”

Aw. But also par for the course.

“She’s beautiful,” Joel gushed of his wife of more than 14 years. “She’s my queen.” Noting that they’d been together overall for almost 17 years, the Good Charlotte rocker said it was his longest commitment second only to the band he shares with twin brother Benji Madden. “She’s been the greatest partner,” he added. “I feel lucky.”

Nicole told ET Canada in 2022 she had no special secrets to offer for a lasting marriage, but she and the Good Charlotte rocker simply “let each other be ourselves and just have fun.”

And though it was frequently two against one when it came to either of them dealing with Harlow and Sparrow—”teens can definitely gang up on you,” Nicole noted—she’s been enjoying this chapter of their lives.
