ABC News' Diane Sawyer confirms what most everyone knew, that 'The Simple Life" star Nicole Richie is pregnant with Good Charlotte singer Joel Madden's baby.

"Yes, I am. We are. I'm almost four months," Richie told Sawyer.  Watch the full interview on "Good Morning America" Thursday, Aug. 2 and Friday, Aug. 3, and on "20/20" Friday night.

Richie is the daughter of Lionel Richie, and has been under the paparazzi bug light for her anorexia, DUI's, and relationships with other celebrities.

Richie was arrested on Dec. 12 on charges of driving under the influence, after she was driving the wrong way down the 134 highway in Burbank, Calif. The police said she admitted that she'd smoked marijuana and took the prescription painkiller Vicodin.

Richie pleaded guilty last Friday, and was sentenced to four days in jail, which she has until Sept. 28 to serve.

"I have a responsibility and it's something that I did wrong, and if I could personally apologize to every single person that has lost a loved one from drunk driving I would," Richie says about her recent guilty plea. "And unfortunately, I can't, but this is my way of paying my dues and taking responsibility and being an adult."
