Paris Hilton loves Nicole Richie

"Collectively, we did not see a place for 'The Simple Life' on our schedule this season," Fox said in a statement.

Until Hilton recently ended her engagement to Greek shipping heir, Paris Latsis, the show was planning, in its fourth season, to place her and Nicole, also engaged, as wives in different families in order to prepare them for their upcoming marriages. Fox likely pulled the plug on the series due to this latest hurdle and to the fact that Hilton and Richie are no longer pals. But Bunim-Murray Productions, the company behind the show as well as MTV's "The Real World," is confident that America isn't yet finished with Paris and Nicole. "We're disappointed that 'The Simple Life' will not continue on Fox where it has performed so well, but we believe this series...is still a dynamic and valuable franchise," the company said in a statement.

Meanwhile, Paris Hilton has penned a 'sorry' note to ex best friend Nicole Richie in a bid to end their fall-out.

A source close to the blonde revealed: "Paris just wanted to call things a day after friends stepped in and told her she was being petty.
