Reports may be circulating that Nicole Richie is back in rehab, but her rep insists the Simple Life star is doing fine at home. The National Enquirer and Star mag claim Richie is getting outpatient treatment for anorexia and substance abuse from the Beau Monde Treatment Center in Corona Del Mar, and are running pictures of the skinny star entering the facility on May 19. "We figured Nicole's publicist would try to deny this," says a source. "We have excellent sources, though." According to the tabs, Richie checked into rehab on May 11. "And yes, she's at home now," says the source. "As we wrote the story, she's now getting outpatient treatment." Richie's rep tells TMZ that the star is "in Glendale at her house," that she did go back to see her therapist, that her recovery is "an ongoing process" but that she's "completely sober."
