“She is working with a team of doctors and specialists whose focus is nutrition,” says the rep. “It is important to Nicole that she achieve this goal in a healthy way, [but] this is not a treatment for an eating disorder.”
Richie’s treatment means work on the new season of The Simple Life, which will find Richie and recently reconciled pal Paris Hilton as camp counselors, is temporarily on hold.
In a joint statement, show producers 20th Century Fox and Bunim/Murray said, “Everyone…supports Nicole and wishes her well. We consider her a part of our family and look forward to resuming production on The Simple Life when she is ready.”
