Nicole Richie Honours Essex With Harlow
NICOLE Richie has lost weight. She gave birth to a baby girl in Los Angeles.
The name? Harlow Winter Kate Madden.
Much talk is over the weight - 6 lbs 7 oz. No - get this - not Richie’s weight, the baby’s!
Their spokesperson said, “The beautiful healthy baby girl left the hospital with her ecstatic parents.”
But what of that name? Harlow. Like the town in Essex, one time home to Michael Barrymore, Glenn Hoddle and Jade Goody.
It is a location name, much like Britney Spears called her son Preston, in honour of the drab Lancashire town. It’s amazing what can sound exotic to the foreign ear…

Ancienct anecdotes dept: Jean Harlow was at a dinner party and kept on addressing Margot Asquith (wife of prime minister Herbert Asquith) as MargoT (pronouncing the ‘T’). Margot finally had enough and said to her “No Jean, the T is silent, as in Harlow”.

Terry Lubbock as of the 13th July 2007 I have had nothing to do with Tony Bennett.
Mr Bennett is no longer my solicitor. It is my regret that I live in the same Town of Harlow, as Mr Bennett. I fully support Gerry & Kate McCann in finding their daughter little Madeleine.
Administrator: You are welcome here. Tony Bennett has not been for some months. -agw

The baby in the pic isn’t Nicoles, it was taken on the day that they introduced their new Richie-Madden foundation people!

For JEAN Harlow–the actress? Duh. And please don’t take this as in any way supportive of our girl Britney, but Preston is a relatively common family name here in the South.

Well I guess it escaped the beaming parents but doesn’t the name Harlow sound suspiciously like Harlot? Just an observation.
Anyway, check out the hair on this baby! What a pretty little thing. Congrats to the new parents.

Now I wonder if they have got her a white handbag to dance around, and a black bra to wear under a white t-shirt?
