Nicole Richie "mend(s) her issues" with her biological parents

Nicole Richie decided to "mend her issues" with her biological parents after discovering she was pregnant.

'The Simple Life' star - who went to live with singer Lionel Richie when she was two and was legally adopted by him and his then wife Brenda Harvey-Richie when she was nine - wanted to build bridges with her father, percussionist Peter Escovedo, and mother, identified only as a backstage assistant on Lionel's 1980 world tour, when she discovered they were going to be grandparents.
Nicole - who began seeing a psychotherapist when she was three and battled heroin addiction as a teenager - said: "It wasn't an overnight decision, but actually, yes. When I found out that I was pregnant, there was just something inside of me that felt a responsibility to mend any issues that I've had with my parents in the past, because listen, I have put them through a lot.
"Of course, you just want to heal any wounds before I become a mother myself."
