According to Star Magazine, Nicole Richie and BF Joel Madden are planning on tying the knot before she serves her jail sentence for speeding the wrong way down a Burbank California highway back in December… oh, and for her DUI charge, too.

“Joel said to Nicole, ‘Let’s get married before you go to jail,’ a source close to the couple reports. ‘She was so happy. He’s doing this so she feels secure behing bars. The last thing he wants is for her to worry about where they’re at while she’s in jail.’” ~ Star

Three days doesn’t seem like a big deal to me… it’s not like she’ll be in there for a year and Joel might hook back up with his ex, Hilary Duff. The baby coming in the winter might also have something to do with it! If Lionel Richie is over the moon with happiness, then it must be a good idea. Who knows, Joel might make an honest woman out of her yet.
