Lionel Richie is speaking out for the first time about daughter Nicole?s impending jail sentence and her pregnancy. Nicole has been ordered to serve four days in prison for her DUI arrest last December.
?My daughter has made some mistakes in her life and has accepted responsibility for her actions,? Lionel told Usmagazine ?She has not blamed others for her problems and is growing up very quickly, albeit in the heat of the media spotlight. ?
The singer says he raised Nicole to take responsibility for her actions. ?My father taught me to stand straight and take whatever punishment or hardships were the result of my actions and I am proud that I was able to hand that philosophy down to my daughter,? says Lionel. Source
