Nicole Richie‘s daughter Harlow celebrated her 3rd birthday at a star-studded bash in Beverly Hills this weekend. The A-list guest list included Gwen Stefani’s sons Kingston and Zuma, Jessica Alba’s daughter Honor, Kourtney Kardashian’s son Mason, Tobey Maguire’s kids Ruby and Otis, Sara Gilbert’s daughter Sawyer. Just to name a few.
The highlight for the birthday girl may have been the cake – if there was one. Her designer mom recently revealed that she insists on a very healthy diet for Harlow and her little brother Sparrow, saying “Sugar is obviously a big no-no.”
“I was at a birthday party and there was a cupcake with all this pink icing and there was a blueberry on top of the cupcake,” Nicole says. “Harlow looked at it and her eyes got so wide and she was like ‘Ohh,’ and I was like, ‘Oh boy, here we go,’ and she was like ‘Blueberries!’ So I went to the kitchen and got her a whole thing of blueberries. And she was happy.”
Unfortunately Nicole has to deal with a bit of diet sabotage from her new husband Joel Madden!
“Joel is not on the same page as me. My kids don’t have dairy either, but Joel does take Harlow out and she comes back and I say, ‘How was your dinner?’ and she says, ‘Good, we had pizza!’ I’m like, ‘OK, OK.’… I have my own ways, Joel is not me and I have to let him be a dad and I have to let him do his thing.”
Sugar and dairy aren’t the only things that have been banned in the Richie-Madden household: “We don’t use battery-operated toys, we don’t use plastic,” Nicole adds.
Are you extra diligent about your kids’ diets? Are there certain foods you don’t allow? How about the kids’ toys?
